I’m a 33 year old mother in Seattle. I’ve been searching for an answer to happiness, peace, love for myself. I’ve been searching for so long and finally know I’ve nailed it. I went 100% RAW overnight after picking up Alissa Cohen’s book from the library and devouring the whole thing, August 12, 2008. I just knew this was the answer. I’ve been about 30 to fourty pounds overweight all my grown life and nothing was working. I could carry it off well since I’m 5’8” but, just not happy about it. I’ve been vegetarian, ovo-lacto, vegan, fruitarian since 1994, but even that wasn’t working. I also experienced gas, gross I know but, it was always an issue, an embarassing one.

Since August 12, 2008 I have lost 20 lbs. without effort. I feel so happy and peaceful (no gas). This is an exciting journey and I’m happy to have support here.

One year ago I lost my Mom to a mysterious disease and I began to worry about my own health. If I knew then what I know now I would have force feed her wheat grass shots and green smoothies galore. I hope I get the chance to enspire and help people that would make me feel so complete!

I work on pier 86 loading ships full of GMO soybeans to ship all over the world. The more I know the more I want to change.
