I was raw and have drifted away, while raw I lost about 70 pounds, controlled high blood pressure. Now I have gained some of the weight back, I don't know why this is so hard for me. I can definitly see and feel the benefits of raw eating, but I have drifted back to bad eating habits several times while here. I need to be here, I have been inspired just reading some of the posts today. Anyway I hope I can get back where I know I need to be.
