Hey everyone, I'm Shanice from Manchester UK. I'm trying to kick off into raw foods with a green smoothie and juice fast. I got on my scales last week and saw a number I did not like, I've always been overweight so didn't really see what was wrong with it until I put on 2 stones extra with the help of my birth control implant, the extra lbs have given me bad knees to the point where I cant walk too far and I'm only 21. That's when I realised that I need to try raw foods again I want to spend the rest of my life as a healthy person. Last time I failed because I thought I could do it all alone but I just can't which is why I'm here to make friends and have a support network.
sorry for rambling on lol

thanks powerlifer and superfood2 :) I have been juicing and making smoothies for 4 days now and i have adding nuts in when i feel too weak, I will try adding salad at the end of the day because I know that's when I'm most hungry. for some reason i have no appetite till about 4pm then im really really hungry which definitely added to my weight gain.
il keep that in mind, before my first ever juice fast last year a green leafy veg had never touched my lips and now i love spinach and lettuce and kale so i'm proud of that :)
