    Default Almost 2 months raw :) update 8 months :)

    Here are some pictures (just of my face) So far I have lost 14 lbs. I feel so awesome! Although, the middle picture of me is on a day I was really not feeling well. I have a brain disorder and suffer from migraine headaches, really more pressure than anything. Unfortunately this cannot be cured with raw due to it being structural. Raw does keep the swelling of tissues down, but so far still having really bad headaches for about 6 or 7 days of the month. I have them everyday, but some are more tollerable than others. Anyway, love this forum and thought I'd share some photos! *hope I do this right*

    before 12/09

    You look Wonderful!
    Thanks for sharing

    On a side note....have you ever checked into Craniosacral therapy? I know a lady who offers it & has changed people's lives with severe migraines - who've lived with them for years & now they rarely have any headaches ever - just a thought.
