Add more raw foods gradually and the SAD foods gradually diminish from your diet. This is a great time of year to begin transitioning because of all the fruit that is available.
Its neat to read what gurus have to say about which form of raw is best, but its best not taken as gospel. They are going to contradict eachother, otherwise what would they have to sell?
Dont worry about SAD food slips, they are a normal part of transitioning. If Im going to cheat on something, I try to choose wisely. That way Im satisfied and ready to jump back into eating raw again.
Above all, have fun!

I'd have to say, when going raw in your 20s, especially in college its all about balance and keeping it simple. Making the best of what's around so you don't end up missing out on anything is important. Don't skip out on events, parties, and gatherings just because they won't be serving your ideals food. Do your best, listen to your body. Eat raw whenever possible. When you are consuming cooked food, try to fill your plate more with the stuff you know your body needs and just a little bit of the other stuff. You can find raw food just about anywhere. I actually just ate a raw meal at Fridays!!! Crazy!

Keep it simple really is the best advice.

And for my shameless plug of the day, I have a recipe blog, rawfoodpunk.com. I am all about keepin' it easy, I post recipes at least 3x a week that are easy and super tasty. Check it out, hope it helps!
