Greetings to everyone

Hello!

I've been more of a "lurker" for a while - reading about raw veganism and trying to learn as much as I can from this board and other places on the web. I've gained so much from reading the helpful articles and comments made by so many on this forum. Even some of the tough questions that have been asked and answered helped me determine that indeed this is the right thing for me to do - and that the raw vegan diet is safe and healthy. I'm convinced!

Also lately I've been incorporating more raw food into my diet, either in the form of whole raw foods, or trying out some of the great recipies I've found here and in Alissa's book. I'm discovering that as I try more things, I'm varying my diet enough to where sometimes I just crave a raw smoothie and that's it. Some of my meals have ended up being raw basically by accident! It's exciting.

I'm going to do the 30 day challenge in the middle of June. Between now and then I'm trying to develop a variety of foods and recipies that I can draw from when I go 100%. Last time I tried (about a year ago) I failed because I was eating the same thing over and over again and it drove me crazy - but that was before I discovered an online community like this one, or Alissa.

I just wanted to say hello, and mention that I hope to start being more of a participant in the forum instead of just a lurker. :)
