Wanted to share with you my weightloss story...

[freelee]

Hi everyone! My name is freelee and I would love to share my rawfood story with you all...
I haven't had a mouthful of cooked food in 2years and i feel amazing!

Over the years I struggled with my weight, yo-yoing back and forth, never finding stable ground. One day I would be subscribing to anorexic mentality, eating a couple of items of food a day and looking up advice from bulimic websites on how to puke effectively… whereas other days I would be stuffing in over 5000 calories of cooked junk food a day in a frantic binge…I always had a love of fruit but I was afraid the fruit sugar would make me fat, I would later discover its NEVER the fruit’s fault at all.

You are a shining Light : )

I just read your blog. Amazing story you have to tell. I was especially interested in your experience with the mono eating. It definately has inspired me to try this. I'm curious, how did you eliminate the previous addictions? Did they just fade away from being raw?

[freelee]

Yes i did eliminate all of my former addictions. When we meet our bodies physiological requirements of adequate quantities of carbohdrates, addictive behaviours become a thing of the past!

It really is very exciting, I used to have candida issues, weightgain, digestive disorders, STD's, anxiety...these have all been cured. I am so happy you enjoyed my story X

Freelee- thanks for sharing your journey with us. You have done a great work documenting your journey so that others may benefit. You are beautiful inside and out.

I don't want to dig into personal stuff, although you don't appear to make anything personal, but are you saying that your diet eliminated your STD (sexually transmitted disease)?

1/4 in the USA have this problem, as do many people I know, and I am a bit apprehensive of beleiveing that your eating habits would change an infection like that...but then again, reasoning my way thru how the body treats infections when provided the opportunity (ie: not beat down by our diets), I suppose anything is possible.

Hi Freelee,
THANK YOU for your raw honesty (pun intended : ) with your journey!
I am currently in a state much like you were pre-raw. I will go a week raw and then binge out of control on anything and everything. After this happens I feel tremendous guilt and like I am not in control of my body. What was the main thing that caused this behavior, or addiction as I see it, to stop. I am an extremist by nature and I find it difficult to balance my diet and lifestyle and then I "freak out".
I hope you dont mind me asking you this but it is refreshing to see someone that has overcome it!

Thank you so much and you look totally fabulous!!

- Hey there, its not so much that my diet eliminated the STD's but my body had the chance to heal because fruit is so easy on digestion that there is a lot of energy freed up for healing that would usually go towards digesting heavy foods. Diet is able to heal roughly about 97% of ailments we are "suffering" from, I recommend people address their diets and lifestyles first then see what challenges are left over.
