    Exclamation Standard Diet to Raw Vegan to Cooked to Raw

    August 2005 2 days after turning Vegetarian.

    http://img377.imageshack.us/img377/922/caywemf4pk5.jpg May 2006. A pic of me just after an incredible hike, after about three weeks 100% Raw. This is just after I had my "epiphany" where I knew this diet was right for me. And this is the tiniest T-Shirt known to man, belonging to a dancer, and it is BAGGY on me here...


    http://img377.imageshack.us/img377/4...2006010mq2.jpg August 2006, Vegetarian for 1 year, Vegan and mostly Raw for five months

    August 2008, JUST before my injury. Two and a half years vegan, roughly a year of a mostly cooked diet


    Oct 2, 2008 - 21 days 95-100% Raw after a year of mostly cooked food. And this is a day where I really neglected my nutrition, had no makeup on, and generally had a really bad day.

    I'm looking at the pics, now that they're lined up, and I'm shocked. I can't stop looking at them. I feel like a brand new person from who I was in the August 2008 photo. New - AGAIN. So incredible what life is, so incredible what this way of life can do. I honestly spent a good hour Oct 2 just staring at the pics of myself, totally unbelieving that this was me. This is me! !!!

    Edit to add: PS - my photo in my avatar is me looking so shocked and happy after seeing my picture. Ha!
