    Wow, another young person who is interested in living a HEALTHY life

    I just love seeing all you young people getting a great start on life!

    Hope you like the boards here and will gain much knowledge and share with us what you know.

    I just checked your profile and see you're interested in kickboxing - how cool. My interest is in the martial arts :)

    Hi Liana!
    Welcome! So glad you decided to join us. I love kickboxing and tennis too! Haven't played tennis since I moved out of Florida and haven't kickboxed in ages. I have a son the same age as you and when I was kickboxing, I wanted to show him a move I'd learned and (accidentally) knocked him flat on the floor! ;) LOL. My sons don't mess with me anymore - especially now that I'm getting into karate with Helen. I came home from my first lesson and tried to show them what I'd learned and they ran from me screaming "NO MOM, NO!!" I was laughing so hard I was doubled over. So, instead I demonstrated on my husband and slapped him up both sides of the head. Hee hee. He got me back though.

    ANYWAY... (back on topic) I think it's awesome that you are 100% raw. You will avoid a lot of health issues that others your age may experience as they grow older if they stay on the SAD diet. Also, the raw lifestyle helps you stay and look younger longer. I know that isn't all that important at your age, but when you start getting up there - like me - you will really appreciate it! So, stay raw - it's a win-win situation.

    So Liana, how long have you been raw?
    Abundant Blessings,
    Victoria (Formerly "Nutrimom")

    Welcome Liana,

    I have a son soon to be 17 in 16 days - eats a little raw. It is wonderful as Helen said to have a young person investing in their health.

    Take care :)

    Yes, it is VERY nice to see more young people eating healthy. Alex the Raw Guru is like 19 I believe; the Bountenko kids; Storm and Jinjee's kids...I only wish I had began learning and practicing all this when my oldest children were babies...that would have been AWESOME to have raised my kids raw from the age of weaning! But, there's still time and hope for my kids...they're doing good actually and coming around slowly. Who knows where they'll be in 4-5 years when they're 17 and 18 years old!

    Thumbs up I feel very welcomed

    Thank you all so much for the wonderful welcome. Nutrimom asked how long I've been raw, well, I am new to raw... I've been raw for a little over a month. Would you like to see a picture of me? Maybe I should add one to my profile... I lost 32 pounds on raw food (I have tried doing it before for 2 months but then I was too happy with my weight that I went back to SAD) and now I'm losing more weight (since I'm back to raw). I think I need to lose at least 35 pounds more to reach my ideal body. Nutrimom, I loooove karate! I used to be the 2nd best in a class full of boys (I was the only girl and I recieved a Silver Metal in the competition!). I don't do karate anymore. I focus on Tae-Bo (with billy blanks) and yoga.

    Well that's it for now... I will reply to anyone who posts anything more (please do!) babye
