Okay - so... I think I just need to make some new friends in the raw food world ebcause everyone i know thinks i'm crazy for doing this. I started eating 100% raw (after years of different diets and routines - my mother owns a wellness center, so i've tried just about every integrated-holistic-naturalist method out there) - so yeah, i started eating 100% raw about one month ago. I think I went through detox in the beginning - but it is starting to feel like i'm having a resurgence. Headaches, bloated, skin problems, light headedness.....on top of this, there's the weight problem.

I am very very overweight. Three years ago, I was even more overweight...but I managed to kick 60 pounds - then...it stopped. For the last year or so - I have gained a couple pounds, regardless of excersize and diet -to be a healthy weight (for the first time in my life - yes, i was the fat girl in high school) i need to lose 60 more pounds for my height (5'10).

In the last month- i havent' dropped even one. I'm frustrated - losing hope - and though i'm really enjoying the challenge of going raw... I just need a little pep talk ....someone who has been there and can offer some sort of advice.

Thanks guys.
