    Default Hi, newbie here. :)

    Hi Everyone, I've been lurking off and on here for a while, and thought that I should make my presence known.:)

    Here's a little background info on me.

    When I was around 18 years old I was a vegetarian for about a year, and during the middle of that year I spent maybe two weeks as a vegan.

    (I quit trying the vegan approach at the time because it wasn't agreeing with me physically ,
    looking back on it now I think that I wasn't transitioning properly).

    So fast forward a few years and unfortunately now I'm pretty much back on the typical SAD (with the consequence of an ever expanding waistline).

    So now I'm looking to transition to a more raw diet to help lose a few pounds, and because I'm tired of finding myself reaching to junk food more often then not.

    Thanks for reading my extraordinarily long first post- Gothiclove

    Thank you to all of you for the well wishes on my transition to raw foods. I had my first full non-raw meal (since three days ago) at dinner tonight. And I can't believe how it seems to affect my stomach and digestion, it feels like I ate a tasty lead brick, lol.
