Hi all!!!!

I just wanted to share one thing with you. Ive been raw on and off for only 1 mayby 2 (?) months. Ive been eating mostly raw for the past 2 weeks. For 3 exceptions (once being today).
I do feel better and like myself as a person and my body more than before. And I love my life-I seem to appreciate things much more only by being raw.

But what I want to share is a problem I had since Christmass. I went to Thailand in November and came back home after a month. So from comming from a very, very hot place I came bac to cold Stockholm. It was Christmas- I ate bad, I was under a lot of pressure, my trip hadnt been as good as I thought it would be and my skin started to freak out. I got severe acne (later someone told me it was an infection in the skin). This was caused by change in the temperature, much stress, bad foodhabits (I though "what I eat better than most of my friends most of the time",and I was also told it was an hormonal inbalance.

I had to stop eating certain things because i noticed I got new spots directly after eating food and it was hurting qiut a bit (it was like someone put needles in my skin).
I also began to stress down-Its my last year in college (actually I am doing my last two years in one year) and the mental stress was probably worse than how reality was.

Anyhow. My skin became better after stressing down and changing my eating habbits. But first after I began eating raw food I actually see much better result than I thought ever would happen. I still have problems with my skin but I havent been 100% raw and some days not raw at all.

When I eat raw I see result the next day. When I eat other kinds of food my skin reacts immediately. Like today. Ive been eating raw half day and not raw rest of the day (much bad carbohydrates) and my acne is worse at once. I got new spots.

I know this will take time and Im ok with that. Its not easy to change habbits. But I hope I will some day.

I learned a lot about myself by getting this skindesease. I was very superficial before and I had to get to know myself in a totally different way than I did before. I like myself much more now.

thanks for sharing your experience - it sounds like you are making alot of breakthroughs and discoveries. Keep us posted!!

when i first went raw my face broke out like crazy......i was so embarassed and hardly wanted to go out in public,

its just your body getting rid of toxins. it is a humbling detox.

remember everthing causing disgrace in your life is subject to change at some point.
