Hey everyone! I'm new to this site and came here to seek support. My names Heather, I'm 17 years old and i've been a vegetarian for 5 years on March 15th Ive also been cutting out most animal products besides the ones found in bread for about a year.

The past year and a half I've really been researching the raw food diet. However not many people support my decision and think it's an unhealthy choice. I'm really wanting to go raw for many reasons - I'm tired a lot, i have frequent UTI's, I have a chronic acne problem, etc ect. So hopefully with all the negative vibes im getting from my loved ones, this site can bring some positivity about my diet into my life.

So I just wanted to say hi and introduce myself, I hope i can get to meet lots of awesome, supportive people on here. :)
