    Default the difference between my raw pregnancy and sad pregnancy !!!

    hello my name is cassie and i just wanted to post some pics of my two pregnancies . my first pregnancy i started out at 150 lbs and gained 54 lbs throughout . when i went home with my daughter alessandra i weighed 204 lbs . it took me a year and a half to get back down to 135 lbs after going back to raw . i fell back to veganism last year right about jan for about four to six months and then went back to raw . going vegan made me gain 23 lbs .. grrr . i found out i was pregnant at 158 lbs and went back to raw (not 100% ) battled cravings and false ideas of protien in a raw food diet while pregnant . went back to vegan for about three months and fast forward a bit ... im on day 85 of raw as of today dec 9 of 2011 and i feel better and hope that these last few months of a raw food diet will have some good effects on my baby and hoping to drop the unwanted weight that i gained due to my battles with vegan chinese food in at least 6-8 months after trevor is born . im due jan 2 of 2012 , so in about three weeks and 3 days . i post pics six wks after the birth to see how it looks then .

    Well I think you look great now and you are doing a wonderful thing for your child by eating healthy. I wish you all the luck and you're due date is coming up so it seems like its going to be a great New Year's gift.

    I bet you will be able to drop the baby weight more quickly while sticking to raw and I'm interested to see what benefits this brings to your child as well. I've heard how difficult it can be to be 100% raw and carry on a full healthy nutritionally balanced (for the growing fetus).

    Genesis 1:12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind,
    and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind:
    and God saw that it was good.

    "The most sublime truth of all has never been stated or written or sung,
    not because it is far away and can’t be reached but because it is so intimately close,
    closer than anything that can be spoken." - Gangaji
