I have been a fanatic forum reader for quite some time now, but always seem to come back to RFT as the advice and support shines so brightly here! Anyhow.. decided it's about time I start posting!
My name is Mony.. I live in Perth, Australia... just relocated from Cairns actually. I am a full time uni student, studying a Bachelor of Social Work.. I have just transferred universities (to one that is nearly 6 times the size of my last!) so lots of changes for me in the new year... including the next phase in my raw journey!

I have been about 80% raw for this last year... I have had to transition into 100% raw quite slowly due to my digestive system being so sensitive and inconsistent.. for years I have been dealing with bloating/gas/etc ..etc....

So I was mainly juicing/smoothie-ing .. salads for lunch.. or guacamole & carrot sticks.. and then steamed vegetables or soup for dinner as when I tried to incorporate raw vegetables I would bloat up to the extremities and feel terrible... after eating like this for the last 11 months, I decided in December I was ready to commit to eating 100% raw! I had done just under a week of completely raw, until a family member pressured (better yet, I let him!) me into a home made seafood curry...but that's okay, and slip ups do happen! I really do feel confident I am ready to tackle being completely raw as I have given my body the chance to transition, gone through detox symptoms etc....

So yesterday was the beginning of a personal 30 day raw challenge for myself, so far, so good!

I am actually looking forward to experiencing more detox symptoms - or better yet the intensity of them... today I feel pretty amazing! Just finished off a bowl of guacamole ... Looking forward to being apart of the forums and meeting lovely new people!
