    I'm 19 and I work at Hippocrates Health Institute. Guests ask me often, "How are you working here? You're not old enough to work are you?" Most people guess that I'm anywhere between 12 and 17, though I don't think I look 12. Everyone thinks my 18 year old brother is older than me (he's on a terrible diet.) I used to get offended when people thought I was younger than I am, though that didn't happen often. Most people used to think I was a lot older than I was. I hope I stay looking this young for a long time!

    Smile Lol

    I don't think anyone is "supposed" to look a certain way at any age. However, we are used to the changes we seen in people like wrinkles.

    If there is a way to look way younger than your years but have the same brain... That would be great!

    I am 26, my husband saids I look 19, people always assume I'm younger. I recently met a 27 year old and I was shocked! I kept thinking, is that going to be me next year? LOL

    My husband and I were both born 1-20-69. He is 45 min older than me. He was raised as a vegetarian and now eats meat since he was 16. I was raised eating meat and became a vegetarian in my late teens, then became vegan and now since 9-11 eating 100 percent raw. I've had people mistake my daughter and I as sisters, and once my husband was asked if his daughters needed a ticket when we were getting raffle tickets. I don't really put much stock in how old or young I look, because I still feel the same as when I was a kid. I think it's the attitude that keeps you young, not the absence of wrinkles.

    I'm almost 27 and since going raw people have said I look 18. When I was very high raw in the summer I had teenage guys hitting on me!! Every time I go back to partial raw with more cooked though I'll have older guys hitting on me instead of the teenagers.

    I think going raw has made a few of my smile lines more noticeable which I hate. I think it's because my face has lost a lot of fat.
