    Default A month and 8 Days

    Thought I'd share my progress so far,have lost 24.6 lbs.
    But more then that I feel freakinFantastic :)

    I was very sick for the past 7yrs untill this year when a divine hand lead me to raw,and its only gonna get better from here....

    I feel awake again,I thought after I had turned 30 that this is how it was sopose to be,that the good days had passed,and my body was just gonna fall apart on me with each passing year.


    What I feel now is happily grateful, even for the seven dark years,because of them I appreciate this time even more.

    Anyhow the first pic is of me 12/21/2009

    Second was taken this morning

    I cant wait to see what I look and feel like in 6 months

    Default Almost 5 Months Raw

    Just wanted to share some more pics........
    As of now Ive lost 54.1 pounds
    Its amazing the places on my body that make me the happiest for releasing the weight.
    First is my wrists-I cant belive how swollen they were
    I have knee caps lol Woohoo..who knew
    The back of my legs are smoothing out,its so amazing,Ive lost weight before but nothing like this.
    Sides of my torso,and my belly has shrunk significantly
    I am now being asked what Im doing and if I will give them information on raw,its awesome,and I do want to help many others,I am seriously considering going to school as a nutritionist,and then seeking somthing along the holistic route.Of course as I am still learning it would be a great benifit to me for my health to boot.
    When Ive lost half my size I will post a body shot.Ive been taking pics once a month along with mesurements.

    Anyhow,I got an ID card in June of this year
    and then a couple weeks ago I got my licence,when I saw the two pics together I was shocked at just how much Ive changed in such a short time. Im so happy and Thankful .........
