Hey, no worries about spelling and English! I'm glad for the opportunity to meet you here!

Yes, I can feel a big difference already after finishing my first week, and I'm at 70% raw not 100%. I haven't had detox yet that was truly awful, except for a wicked migraine on the evening of the first day. I'm just going to ride it out as it comes - after all, I have all kinds of negative symptoms because of overeating on the standard diet. The detox symptoms are actually positive to me. They will pass, and they will take the other symptoms with them! I can be strong through some detox, yes!

I can't see myself abandoning this way of eating either. I finally found what feels right. I'm making sure that I'm balancing my diet from the start - being careful not to fall into the trap of too many fats even on a raw diet, and ensuring that I have plenty of greens, fruits, and other vegetables. I'm keeping a daily food log so I can go back and see what changes might need to be made and so I can make sure that I am truly eating 70% raw. I'm also keeping a blog so I can have a place to journal from day one.

It seems quiet here on these boards...I hope someone else comes to welcome you soon too, Juan! You are a good role model for us here.
