Hi everyone! I've just started the 10 day raw challenge and thought I'd introduce myself, I'm Sulis, I'm 43 years old and instead of doing the usual NYE resolution diet I'd give raw a try.

I became intrigued by the idea of going raw about a year ago when I came across Shazzie's site and was inpsired by some of the transformations I read about there. I don't have any major health problems, just overweight from years of fad and yo-yo dieting and what used to be mild patches of psoriasis is now becoming major. I'm a big sweet tooth and addicted to carbs (the white processed kind) I often wonder if I can ever overcome those cravings, guess I'll know in 10 days time!

Cheers!

Sulis. 

Welcome Sulis! 

Thanks guys!  so far I'm really enjoying the recipe section and there's heaps of info so I'm confident I can do this. Can't wait to try some cacao powder and Agave nectar, I just have to try some of those raw choccy recipes.

I've survived day 1 and feel good, I have the sugar craving though so I'm off to whip up a banana smoothie.
 

Welcome Sulis!

Welcome, I am a new too. i have been on the raw diet for about 3 months and it is the way of life now, i dont have to think about it and i really dont want cooked food. keep up with it, and this site has given me so much support when i thought i was gonna loose it. It is great to have a read.

all my love
