Let me be more specific... What was the first [I]positive[I] thing you noticed after going raw? And when did you notice it? Was it better sleep, feeling more energetic, weight loss, clear skin, or...

I'm not new here, but have been a very long time lurker and occasional poster from a few years back. I've rounded yet another corner in life and decided to have another go at raw foods. I...
