Why I went raw.

What are some reasons why people choose to go from eating their regular diet to the raw vegan diet?  Simple, the raw vegan diet is known to help support weight loss, help prevent diseases, and overall cleansing the body of all the toxins from all those years of ingested fatty foods.  How I got started on this wonderful journey is from my desire to lose weight and stay healthy. I’m not one to preach about healthy eating and exercising because for the longest time I too was struggling with my weight and still am.

After I had my son I was left with the 60 pounds I’ve gained during pregnancy.  I tried eating healthy and exercising but for some reason the scale wasn’t budging and my patience was running low then all of the sudden I found myself going back to my old eating habits. I wanted a miracle diet, one that I don’t have to restrict my calories or starve myself so I did some research and found out about the raw vegan diet.

At first I didn’t really like the idea of giving up meat and dairy products but I knew I’d have to to get the results I want. I started out slowly weaning myself off of beef, pork, and chicken. I started eating lots of salads with olive oil and lemon juice and snacked on snap peas and carrots. I also got these really yummy tasting raw chocolate with cashew bars to cure my sweet tooth. Since I started this raw journey I’ve lost 36.8 pounds and I’m very pleased with it. I feel much healthier now and for some reason my mind is clear of negative energy. Plus I can eat as much as I want!

I’m looking forward to this new me in a couple of months if things turned out as planned. I’m starting to develop a passion for raw foods and have no desire to look back, which is great because I’m on the path to a healthier lifestyle. I just bought a juicer hoping to start juicing my own juice, although they don’t taste as good as the ones from the store they’re better. There’s the green juice that I’ve been juicing every morning for myself that’s absolutely good for my body (even though it taste funky). It’s supposed to cleanse the body of acidic toxins because of its alkaline properties. I have to say that I’ve definitely found my miracle diet and it is doing wonders for me
