Hi everyone! Just wanted to say Hello to everyone in the forum! Im from South Florida in my mid forties and trying to get into the raw lifestyle with my best friend in Connecticut and husband. Its a bit tough getting started, but I imagine as in anything that we will just “fall into it” soon enough… I have already tried several recipes and so far have not been real disappointed and have noticed that Im shedding pounds (we have been excercising at a local Y about 4 – 5 times weekly for several months now, and have noticed results but have now noticed a more rapid weight loss due to the new way of eating (went raw over two weeks ago)! I am very excited about this and just wanted to basically say Hi and looking to stay motivated… :)
