    nice work ! more definition in the cheekbones and skin looks smoother from decreased pore size...also seems less oily and your eyes have opened and lifted. Definately cheaper than botox :)

    Thank you! Monk' and KB. LOL!
    My skin used to be super oily with lots of hormonal breakouts, but now it's almost normal.

    The before pic is with full makeup and the after with an almost bare face (I was trying on a new blush)

    Georgeous da'ling! :0) Wow! The skin, cheekbones and eyes so clear and bright! What are they ways in which you feel different as well? How much weight did you lose? What brought you to begin eating raw?

    Thank you!

    I have so much more energy. I'm alert, my mind is clearer than ever before.
    I'm more creative and more calm even in the face of challenges. I've always been a happy, positive person, so I guess you could say I just enhanced that part.

    My hair is silkier, not as coarse. My oily, acne-prone skin has fewer and fewer breakouts; actually none in the past 2 months I've noticed.

    My teeth are whiter, but that may have to do with oil pulling. People who know me say I look healthy! LOL.

    I started Raw when I went on a full-body detox with herbs and a raw diet for 21 days to cleanse my system. After the detox was done, I decided to continue on the Raw way of eating. I also did it to shore up my health. I was a closet social smoker for many, many years (never smoked during the workday; would wait to I got home or when I went out clubbing or to parties.)

    I am in my 50's and started gaining lot's of weight, peri-menopause set in and I didn't like how I was feeling, so I wanted to do something about it.

    I alway ate a "healthy" diet, very little processed food, and hardly any dairy until the last 2 years before I went Raw. So Raw isn't too hard for me.
