I have been eating vegatarian for many months now but eating raw about 90% of my meals. I got the Alissa's DVD and book --spent the day yesterday reading the book and watched part of the DVD. Since reading the book I have decided to take the plunge of totally 100% raw. I'm sure it will be an interesting journey-- my husband was ok with what I was doing before but isn't convinced about this--we do get invited to his friend's houses for dinner at times--but once I make a commitment I do stick to it. I am excited about much better I will look and feel!! I was talking to someone who has fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue and arthritis--told her what I was doing and why. Sad thing she is convinced that it wouldn't work for her and she will just go the route of the doctors.
