hey everyone. i've been playing with the idea of

going raw for a year. i've been vegetarian all my

life(i'm 21). my main reason for looking at a raw diet is

to lose weight. i'm female, 5'8 " and 155. i would

like to see my weight closer to my low of 115. i also

know i have an addiction to breads and dairy. an

addiction to anything isn't good. so i though i'd kill two

birds with one stone and go raw. i need to see some

drastic changes in my weight and soon--it's making me

depressed and i want to be happy!!<br><br>anyway, i'm glad

i found you all and i would really apprieciate any

tips you have for me. i know detox will be rough but

i've fasted before so this can't be much

worse.<br><br>t.

It's much easier than fasting. Because you can

still eat. And you can find great replacements for most

of the tastes and textures you are used to.

<br><br>Come back to the board whenever you have a question or

a doubt and I'm sure the members will try to help

you out.<br><br>Plus you can virtually eat as much as

you want and you will lose weight. The body will use

this time to detox and replace the cells that were

produced with cooked foods. All raw foodists experience a

weight loss at first. Later a normal weight will come

back.<br><br>Roger Haeske<br><br>Unleash your Imaginative Powers to

Hi Foreverthin2001,<br><br>It’s great to read an

enthusiastic post such as yours.<br><br>You’ve taken that

first step in the right direction to reach your

goal.<br><br>Do you have any good books on raw food as a diet?

Here are a few that I just pulled from my shelf that

you might want to consider purchasing. They are all

very good and there are certainly others out

there.<br><br>“Fit for Life” (not Fit for Life II) by Harvey and

Marilyn Diamond<br><br>“The Original Natural Hygiene

Weight Loss Diet Book” by Herbert Shelton<br><br>“The

Raw Life” by Paul

Nison<br><br>Optional:<br>“Twenty-One Days to Health: The Hallelujah Diet Way”

by Chet

Day<br><br>All of these books will provide much knowledge and

encouragement for you AND they will help to take your mind off

of “bread and dairy” foods.<br><br>I was 215 lbs

when I started my raw diet program. Within six months

I was 170 lbs. I wasn’t even trying to lose weight!

I now maintain my weight at 180 lbs with no

effort.<br><br>In addition to your raw food diet remember that

EXERCISE and REST will play a key role in your success

towards your goal of losing weight. All of the books will

explain in detail for you.<br><br>Let us know how you are

doing.<br><br>Regards,<br>OrionsDad

My book has also introduced thousands to the raw

food path (its sold nearly 5000 copies) called

AWAKENING OUR SELF HEALING BODY. If you'd like information,

e-mail me at artbaker1 or you can read reviews

on amazon (but it of you order it through me, you'll

receive it much faster).<br><br>Arthur Baker<br>Self

I concur Arthur. Your book is a great resource

especially with all these Anthrax threats. I got your book

several years back. I spoke to you several times over the

phone when I was thinking of doing the Natural Hygiene

course. At the time I was not ready to go 100%

raw.<br><br>Thank goodness I think I've finally figured it out with

the help of many people including yourself.<br><br>I

also think your book has the best and most complete

evidence showing that humans are not carnivores,

omnivores, or herbivores but rather frugivores. <br><br>Nice

to know you post here Arthur.<br><br>Roger

thank you roger, its been a long road for me onto

raw foods. its been 8 months now of 100% raw and i

feel greatttttt. b4 that, for 10 years i was 80% to

90% raw and b4 that it took me 5 years to become

vegan off of meat and dairy (i discovered natural

hygiene in 1986 and began the change that year).<br>ART

thanks for the titles--i don't have the money to

purchase them but i'll see if the library has

any.<br><br>i'm excited to get started and see some drastic

results in my body and my health.<br><br>i will post my

progress:)<br>thanks again!!<br>t.

[Guest guest]

thanks-i'll look into it:)

[Guest guest]

You might find the " Fit for Life " book in the

library but I doubt the other four.<br><br>Keep an eye

out at garage sales. I've picked up extra copies for

as little as 25 cents to give out. It's worth a lot

more than that.<br><br>Also, check <a href=http://www.half.com

target=new>http://www.half.com</a>

for these titles. You can save money.<br><br>Yes, I

should have mentioned Art's " AWAKENING OUR SELF HEALING

BODY " . It was my first introduction to Natural Hygiene

as well.<br><br>-OrionsDad

[Guest guest]

student and with tution as high as it is i have to be frugal!<br><br>t.
