Today is my first day to go raw. The reason is for weight loss and really.... just all over health. I love raw fruits and veggies, so I dont thik this wil be a hard challenge. I also love Southern fried...baked....grilled...meat. I can do anything for 30 days so here we go.
I am 38 years old. I have two children of my own and two step-children of my own. I am the only real mother they have. I am not married but I have been with my guy for about ten years. We are going through some problems that I never thought we would go through. Basically we have drifted apart. He seeks attention from other females as I seek attention from other males. NOT cheating just knowing that we are both still attractive to the opposite sex. I have arthrits and exercise to get this extra weight off has been hard. Im hoping the raw diet will kick start the weight loss so that I can walk or jog with less stress on my body. Im 5 8 and I weigh 220.
Ok so, enough of all that. I hope to really become educated through this community.
