Hi everyone, Just joined last nite and looking forward to exploring this site.

I'm slowly adding raw foods to my diet. I've not been a vegetarian, but have been eating fairly healthy after learning I had high cholestrol in early 2007. I brought my numbers down 72 points on my own in 6 months by eating right, exercising, quitting smoking. I want to bring it down more, be healthy, and lose weight.

I'm 51. I have been eating healthy - low fat, lots of fruit and veggies, no "white" bread, rice or pasta, etc. for just over a year. Then this holiday I "pigged out" and realized how horrible I felt! I ran across an article about Raw diets and decided to try it - slowly. Right now I'm aiming for about 50% of my diet. Today so far so good. The only thing I didn't have raw was homemade soup. And Wine. I'm not sure I'll EVER give up my wine.

So, right now I'm searching recipes to keep things interesting.

Welcome. There are many sites on the net with uncooked recipes so it's very likely you'll find some to meet your tastes.

Wishing you vibrant health
