Date: April 24, 2008 11:31PM The first thing I noticed was my energy level went through the roof after a few years of chronic fatigue.
It would be hard to say what my favorite physical change is because there are so many and they have all made life better, but I think it might be my sense of smell returning after nine years of nothing. It is incredible!! I can actually feel my olfactory glands coming back to life. It is an indescribable sensation!!! I want to eat food full of flavors now. It is really wonderful.

Date: April 24, 2008 11:34PM I started tightening up my belt one notch at a time. There are 8 notches in my belt and I stared on the next to the last (biggest) and now I'm using the next to the last (smallest) since I went all fresh raw. I thought I was going to grow out of the belt but now I think I may shrink out of it. YeeHaa Re: Favorite physical change when raw?

I won't allow Smoke Detectors in my house because it implies that there might be smoke....nor Health Insurance, Car Insurance, etc., etc. My favorite physical change is Clear Eyes, and just a better overall Countenance.....WY Re: Favorite physical change when raw?

Date: April 25, 2008 02:37AM I got a new freckle. It's not my favorite change (I welcome them all), but it's definitely the most strange. I've never gotten new freckles before. I always had a beauty mark on the left side of my face... now I have one on the right! Guess it means I'm twice as beautiful now. ^.~ Re: Favorite physical change when raw?

Date: April 25, 2008 02:52PM thank you everyone- I love these and am going to print them out and review them if I feel detoxy - these are wonderful.
Love the extra freckle, Phantom - maybe an angel was wiping some mango off your face, and she left a little imprint..... Re: Favorite physical change when raw?

Date: April 25, 2008 11:50PM I get bigger breasts, grew 1/4 inch, and my feet got smaller. Haha
My eyes are in the process of turning blue from brown. The most painful physical change was releasing growths that I didn't know I had. Re: Favorite physical change when raw?

Date: April 26, 2008 01:31AM I started at 126 lbs when I went raw. A year later I am 107 lbs, but I don't look skinny or anything. I am just 5'1" so I think this is just right weight for me. Feel so much better and I get lots of compliments from friends after I lost the weight.
Take care A Iyer Re: Favorite physical change when raw?

Date: April 26, 2008 04:03PM I have an amazing mental clarity now and I can meditate for a long time.
I feel much more in peace with myself and I started to love all the little cretures,even spiders that I used to hate before I love them now. (PS- I still don't know about the brazilian spiders that are huge,humangos,and I was always afraid of them,but I love the small US spiders now) Re: Favorite physical change when raw?

It's not just about losing weight as some people are slim before they start raw and yet their faces/bone structure still look a lot different! Re: Favorite physical change when raw?

Date: April 28, 2008 12:21AM WOW gold rush, I am a bit smaller than that first pic of yours in a bikini..
HOw did you lose those hips? Looks like a total different person in the last pic! How long did it take you to get to your final pic? what % of raw are you? How many calories a day did you eat? I can see you did lots of weight lifting as well!! You look great! Re: Favorite physical change when raw?

Date: April 28, 2008 11:54AM At first I paid little attention to calories. (from first to third pic). Then I really upped the weights and running.
picture 1 to picture 4 is one year's time. I'm 90-100% raw...I fluctuate based on my social life yeah though, weights are important. I don't eat much gourmet--maybe once a month or so. I stick to whole fresh foods (a la DZM). fruit-my-brains-out, water-ful greens...lettuce, cukes, etc., avocados, hemp and pumpkin seeds. I have no appliances,..not even a blender, That helps I think...the most I can macerate my food is with a knife--oh yes, then my teeth. I also moved to NY and ditched the car.
