Raw Food Lifestyle
Are You 100% Raw?	100% Raw At All Times
How did you start eating raw?	First time in 2003 when I went was going back to a Natural Hygiene lifestyle. David Klein asked me if I had heard of a raw food diet. I did research and then became 100% raw. After 1 year, I gradually started eating some cooked foods and within about 4 years, I was almost back where I started from, except I was still a vegan. (I had already been a vegetarian since 1981.) In 2008, I tried a raw food lifestyle again, but with the introduction of green smoothies and so many more raw foodists for support, I became 100% raw again.

About Myself	I am 57 years young and enjoy a raw/living food lifestyle. I have two grown children and 3 granddaughters. I am active and enjoy physical fitness. I have been a vegetarian since 1981. I was 100% raw over 6 years ago for a year, but gradually got away from it, while continuing to stay vegan. After a five year lapse, and a weight grain, I decided to give it a try again. I have now been 100% raw since May 2008 and see no reason ever to eat cooked again. I attending Living Foods Institute in March, and that has helped me go to the next level. Now, I'm much more into a living foods lifestyle. I really enjoy drinking my energy soup! I look forward to meeting other raw foodists--both newbies as well as old-timers. I love to share experiences an inspire and be inspired. My raw food life wonderful adventure!

oh I went 100% raw some 15 years back,the experience of continuous 5 years on raw food was amazing.I witnessed so much positive in mental and physical health.I feel so bad and discouraged why I am unable to go again on 100% raw,really fluctuating between raw 50-60% raw and cooked style never lets you to attain stability and continuity.I wish your example may motivate me.
