I tried raw foods in the past but it didn't work for me. I've always believed in raw foods for optimal health, but maybe I didn't give it enough time or effort. I think I was eating too many nuts, avocados, and oils. Anyway, I have been vegan since June and I think I need to start getting rid of cooked foods. It seems that for me, a gradual transition has been working the best. Since I gave up all animal products, what do you think I should give up next?
Welcome!! I wish you the best of rawesome health!!
Give up the cooked grains (bread, pasta, rice, etc)
Wow Gianni, I love your new look. I can see your skin is glowing.Quote:

Gianni - Thanks for the suggestion to give up cooked grains. What kind of grains are good to eat on raw and how do you eat them? I don't have a dehydrator yet, so I can't make raw bread. Giving up grains, especially bread, has always been my downfall anytime I try to go raw.
Traceyraw - I willl do my best to add as many fruits, greens, and vegetables into my diet. If I eat more of the healthy stuff, I guess I won't have room for the junk.

If jumping in to 100% raw is something you are ready for than go for it! If you need a more gradual transition try cutting out all the processed vegan food, especially stuff with glutens, sugar, and chemical additives and preservatives. Gluten and sugar are quite addicting so if you can get that out of your system than the rest of the transition will be a piece of cake! :)
