i thought with myself being such a newbie it would be fun to find out why you chose this foodstyle. for me it is trying to become the healtiest i can and to give my body what it takes to be healthy and running at its best. i also have a problem with eating animals...it just doesn't feel right. except sushi, i love sushi so that part is really hard to give up

I wanted to lose weight, and get rid of health issues. Little did I know it would be like turning the clock back!

Love,

I came upon a book that talked a little about raw foods. It asked, "how do you feel after you ate a cooked meal? What does your body go through?" So after I read that, I started to pay attention to how I felt afterwards. Lets just say that eating raw made me feel great, have more energy, and I didn't get that bloated full feeling! So that is why I love eating raw.

Oh my gosh yes! You wouldn't believe where I started from, and I even have a hard time believing it.

You can still eat sushi. A lot of people sprout their rice, I don't, personally, but I know it's far healthier than eating boiled white rice if you sprout brown rice. Others substitute minced turnips (or any root vegetable) for rice when they make raw sushi. You put that and any desired vegetables, usually some avocado, on an unroasted nori sheet and roll it up. When I used to make it I couldn't cut it, but yeah, that's the general idea. I know RawGosia's site has a recipe.

Initially, the simplicity of it. I like things in their basic most natural form.
The second time around was for health reasons. I messed myself up by going off raw after about 5 years sad smiley
