I am looking for another lady to be my raw vegan buddy online, over Facebook preferably... that's how I was able to go vegan in the first place. Interested, you or anyone else? In the span of four years, I've not been attempting raw constantly, just every so often attempted it... and lately I have like you said resigned myself to just trying to eat "more raw"... but I think with a raw buddy I would definitely be able to make more progress... just something about having someone else to "answer" to, and help keep mutually motivated helps spur you on.... especially when almost everyone else around you is looking at you like you have five heads, lol!
that's not a problem, with going raw everyone will have their own path, as for me, i know that the first day I try to "go raw" i will be saying a prayer, lol... when I went vegan I felt no need to say a prayer, it was so darn easy... but with this, yes.... they say cooked food is an addiction... who knows I may never be 100% raw, but I sure as heck am going to give it a try... we must never cease to challenge ourselves :) stagnation sucks!
For me a huge motivation to go raw is the promise of "don't have to go to the doctor again" I know that's an exagerration but I know it is guaranteed to cut those doctor visits down drastically.... I dislike our medical system, it's all about drugging with pills instead of prevention, I refuse to succumb to it, if I ever get cancer for example, I will try Gerson therapy before chemotherapy... so yeah, my motivation is for my health, my motivation for veganism was for health but also to stop killing poor animals, but with this next step its totally about my own well-being...
