Hello everyone!
I am a 31-year-old girl from the UK who's been dabbling with raw food before. Unfortunately, I couldn't quite make it stick then, but now that I've found this great forum, I'm sure it will!
I have just started up a blog where I will document my raw journey, the address is http://powerofraw.blogspot.com. Hope you will visit!
I have just completed a set of colonics combined with fasting and feel really clean on the inside now - and ready for a total lifestyle overhaul! My hydrotherapist also gave me the "recipe" for a gallbladder cleanse which she's used before, so I will try that one out just before I break my fast. (Starting today, actually! There will be nothing but apple juice in my hands when I go to the Harry Potter 5 premiere in a few hours!) I will try to type up the recipe on my blog, if anyone should be interested.
I'd also love to get into foraging - I live in a pretty rural area and I saw there was a great thread here about it. Will have to try to get hold of some books!
I work from home so I'm pretty free to do what I want, when I want! My beautiful English Springer Spaniel keeps me company and gets me away from my desk a few times per day, which is great. (He's only 6 months old, so he needs lots of short walks every day.) My fiancé works shifts, so we get to spend quite a lot of time together in the middle of the weeks and we love going camping then, as we get the campsites more or less to ourselves!
Anyway, I think I have been rambling on for quite some time now! Sorry! Looking forward to getting to know you all!
Love, Indie :)

Thank you all so much for the warm welcome!
You know it's a good board when you get that kind of welcome!
I can't wait to make a proper start on my raw journey once I've completed my fast on Monday morning!
Love, Indie

Hi and Welcome.
If you pick up any info on forraging be sure to share as it is something that I want to get into as well. I am considering doing a day long seminar on it in Sept.
If you find any good books on it let me know.There is sufficient in the world for man's need, but not for his greed.

Hi Sport,
and thank you for the welcome!
I found some info on foraging online recently, it's a list of what to pick and when that was published in the Guardian. You will find it on my blog (the link is in my signature).
I hope you'll share any info you find on the subject, too, as I'm completely new to it! :)
Thanks again,
Indie :)
