    Wow! You look so healthy and vibrant now! And I can't wait to show my husband your pics . He weighs about the same as your before pic and his goal weight is what you are right now, what a coincidence He is slowly going more raw and adding more physical activity to his days. If you don't mind me asking, how raw were you and how did you overcome challenges?

    wow! i was nervous posting this and was hoping for a positive response! thanks!
    ok, back in Nov. i went on healthy choice meals 2 x's a day. did that for a short time. few weeks.
    then i went vegetarian. spent some time on some Veg*n boards and went Vegan. that is when things really kicked in! was losing a lot of weight fast.
    in march i started adding in more greens and started looking into raw.
    started to add green smoothies, more salads etc. i could do raw days but would crater after a few days. so its been Hit an Miss for the past several months. im on a hardcore kick right now and trying to realy go for it 100%
    as far as excersize, i dont allow myself to come home after work until i go to the gym and do cardio, weights, something. then i can come home! so im doing something 6-7 times a week.
    ok, thats about it!
