Weird Raw in Pittsburgh is rough!

Hi everyone! I am new to raw, and really decided to join this site to find advice and support. I'm a path resident at a busy medical center, and my husband is quite carnivorous, and although I've seen lots of advice on seeking out other raw people, I think there must be maybe like 2 at most in this city (although maybe more, since my local co-op has started carrying a lot more raw snacks). I've been vegetarian for about 2 years, and considered being vegan, but it was hard because my husband is supportive, but only to a point. But then I discovered raw, and it really does make sense, but there are some bumps in the road (for me - I guess some people make the transition more easily) and so I was hoping I could get some advice from others.

My main issues are that I love carbs! And I get super hungry during the day, but try to make a point to eat organic, and so it can be hard toting enough snacks. Also, I am so busy, so it can be hard to make more complicated meals that require dehydration, etc. I guess these kinks all get worked out in time.

Thanks for any help you can offer!
