Hi Alison so where abouts are you ? Simon.

THANKS FOR THE WELCOME 

I live in ACT.

As I said I have been having green juices and raw foods for about three months know, I can not believe how great I feel overall!!

What lead me to this was probably towards the end of last year, I started to put on a lot of weight quickly no matter what I ate or how much I exercised. Then I started feeling incredibly crappy and dog tired most of the time as well, anyways I had a blood test it picked up issues with thyroid, liver and kidneys. None of these had been there 6 months prior when I had a routine blood test.

So this lead me to my own research as I didn't get much glory for conventional medicine.

I'm feeling better and better everyday, and sometime in the future I will have a repeat blood test done.

I did just juice for about 26 days straight and am thinking I will repeat this soon as I attribute a lot of the fact I feel so much better to this.

I have been researching and reading as much as I can and I am fascinated with it all.

My kids aren't over fussed with the idea of all raw food, however they are on their own journey and maybe the youngest, who is 4, will take it on. the other three are much older. 19. almost 18 and 16.

Sometimes the best things come out of what we initially see as unfortunate circumstances don't they!! I truly think this may be one of the best things to happen to me.

I very much look forward to following along everyones journey here and learning, and hopefully giving something back along the way.

Well yes occasionally the older kids will look after their little brother,

Thanks again Jen, I am really enjoying the site.


Have a great day tomorrow!

Hi Emi,

thanks for the welcome and it is inspiring to hear how raw food has been a blessing to you.
A lot of what I'm reading/learning is all new to me and I find i can't get enough of it.

Hope your having a wonderful day as well!

what an awesome reply, Your right I feel better and better all the time, keeps me motivated emi, when I have more time I will tell you more about my experiences with the juice fasting and what lead me too do it, hope you are having a great weekend!! I'm just about to go to bed.

You are so right though I have been researching, Google, reading ect as much info and driving mates mad with bombarding them with info Luckily I have family members who are keen to listen (or at least they humor me)  and my aunt has been into juices and sprouts and vegetarianism for years, she is over from SA at present so been having some good chin wags with her;)

Have a great day tomorrow xx

Well my Aunt knows quite a lot about nutrition ect, anyway she has gone home after reading some raw food books I lent her to read while here to give RAW FOOD a go!!! So thats great news.

Just wonderful to hear it gets better and better all the time, it sure appears that way

Its great all the support here as well
