High Raw One Week In.... Results smiling smiley

I'm one week in (yesterday I had some cooked food (a chickpea soup and a slice of toast) as we literally had no fresh food in, and it was a wet, miserable Sunday and the shops were shut!). Woke up this morning relieved that I'd be eating raw today smiling smiley

Already, my skin has been clearer this week, even though I have been drinking less water than usual, the tone is more even, less blotchy.

Because of my allergies, my scalp is usually red, dry and itchy a day after washing it, but this week, it's been fine!

Also, I have had a patch of extremely dry, thick skin on the sole of my foot that has been there, for literally years (nothing would get rid of it, I've tried everything). This week, the skin became softer, then yesterday, I used a pumice stone and realised I could actually see normal skin underneath! This probably sounds like no big deal, but I've had this thing for years. Makes me wonder if it was never healing because I wasn't eating the right foods to make it heal.

Finally, I've lost a few pounds.

Avoiding e-numbers and eating proper food is making such a difference.

Having access to this forum has helped loads, so thanks smiling smiley

But even if you don't see the results on the outside, they'll be taking place on the inside. I plateaued and was a little discouraged, but realized that there must be healing going on in my organs (heart, kidney, esp, since I have medical conditions there). I notice my breathing is easier now so something good is happening inside.

Best of luck and persistance to you!
