Yes I did it and I feel absolutely AMAZING!!! Raw vegan, only fruits and vegetables, no cooked nothing, no processed foods, no meat, dairy, eggs, cheese. I thought it'd be tough but once I decided to make the switch it has been dreamy.
I haven't felt this good in years. I feel like I've been given a shot of adrenaline every morning when I wake up...!!!
It's only been 1.5 weeks but so far so good. I have very little appetite and haven't had any cravings yet.
Just thought I'd let ya'll know. Wow and my skin is changing too...! I've been peeing like a horse, losing stored water in my fat. Whoo-hoo!!! ;D

Hi guys :-*I sure love ya'll. Thanks Friski...yep I damn did it!!! And I am so excited for me too. I'm a stubborn woman, when I decide I'm going to do something (or have some one ) you better believe I'm gonna do it! Lol...jk...jk. We (Arianna and I) started with being lacto-ovo vegetarians. But I didn't notice too much difference and I was still eating more then I wanted to, in order to lose weight. So I just said screw it, I'm gonna go for it and that was it. Fruits for breakfast and lunch and a salad for dinner. I just got my book a couple days ago and still need to read up on how much protein I need exactly. I've been making smoothies with pecans and snacking on nutz here and there. But here's the difference Friski...I get up in the morning, ride my bike 15-20 minutes like it ain't nothing. I'll be doing it longer in no time. I've even started doing it at night too but damn it's getting hot...!!! Before there was no motivation but now it seems to come so easy. I'm feeling great...already can tell that I'm loosing weight and will be Ms. Hot Pants again in no time!!! ;D I know Daryl...summer bbq's will be tough. My girlfriend at work comes into my office with her hamburgers smelling up the room but I've got a goal and I'm flexin' my muscles! Anyway...you know how I am... Oh and we just finished our little garden to add to the ease of the diet! I'm so excited.

Ive always wanted to go raw but love a hot cooked meal too much!And my morning Joe! Ive done just the veges and fruit cleansing diet many times just for a few days and that alone feel s great just to clean the body of impurities but I always felt like I was starving! I see you can have nuts for protein.............Ant quit tempting Carrie with that "thick juicy succulent prime cuts" as you put it! ;D Dont cave Carrie .......!!

Awe Ant...you're so sweet!!! I think he was flirting with me too!!! I'm still goin' strong and feeling great. This is the best thing that has happened to me since in a long time! ;D I've not caved one once...no even a little. Today was the first day of cravings for me though. I went to the folks to pick Kado up and they had bbq'd some burgers and the house was smelling SO GOOD!!! Arianna and I were at a friends get together with chocolate chip cookies and brownies... ...but I managed to get by. Thanks for the love you two...! I'll keep you posted!
