Hello from Maryland USA
February 12, 2009 - 5:52am
Hello! I've been lurking around this forum for a few days now and decided to join up. I've been a vegan for years and a vegetarian before that. I was mostly interested in raw for ideas - ways to add variety to my diet, but I'm finding I'm more drawn to the lifestyle than I thought I would be. I'm already hooked on green smoothies! I'm really looking forward to transitioning to a more raw lifestyle.

Have you gone to Jave Green Cafe! They have raw food there! It's in DC.
We have yet to go... but I heard it's good!

Hi Sonia,
Re: not losing any weight yet, be patient and eat lots of veggies, moderate fruit and limited nuts and plenty of exercize. I know lots of people recommend higher
fruit, but if you stick to the above, I'm thinking you'll see some weight loss.
Best wishes-
