Is this normal?

I’ve been eating raw for about 2 days now. Instead of feeling great like I’d hoped, I’m feeling a little down and the migraines seem to be getting worse. I feel like giving up but I keep telling myself that this is a phase and my body is adjusting. Please tell me this is true. And how long did it take your body to adjust?

Much Love, Ashley

    Yea, I’ve read up on it. I guess I just wasn’t ready for it. Didn’t expect it to be this excruciating.

    What were you eating before? I was eating mostly vegetarian before going raw, and even now I’m nowhere near 100% raw (not my goal). If you weren’t veg before, raw might be a shock. Depending on why you switched to raw, maybe consider a slower transition with only part of your diet coming from raw foods, gradually increasing the percentage.

    Good luck to you!

    I have been a vegetarian for about 4 months. I was going to gradually go to Vegan then Raw Vegan, but I’ve decided to skip a step. LOL. The first couple days were horrific. But it will be 1 week tomorrow and I’m syked that I made it this long. I feel so much better and can’t wait to lose some weight.
