New and inexperienced
Hello my name is Joy and I just started the raw food experience about six months ago and never felt better.
I was first introduced to the raw food experience when my church fasted on living juices (home juiced) for a few weeks. Being only fourteen, I was a little wary of not eating for three weeks, but ti worked out for the best. I was completely detoxified by the end of this period and didnt want to lose all that energy and vitality I felt during the fast (especially didnt want to gain back the extra weight I had lost), so after the fast I made a transition to fruits for a few weeks. Eventually I added a handful of raw nuts to my diet. I love the whole feeling and no longer desire those foods that I used to never be able to resist.
Though, being young and a raw foodist is very difficult. When my friends invite to spend the night or go out to eat it is espeically difficult to explain myself to them without them thinking Im completely insane or fanatical. I try to explain I no longer have the desire to eat those things, but they couldnt understand why. So I joined this board to help me through thsese little abostacles and hope to get some awesome ideas.
Joy
