Don't worry about showing the emotions that are being released, just allow it as it will pass. The whole experience should be something that you embrace. The good and the bad parts of it, just know that at the end of it you will feel fantastic!

I have been a vegetarian for 11 years, a fitness fanatic since 1993.Throughout the years I have competed in amateur bodybuilding, and powerlifting which was very rewarding. I began working on my body to look good initially, but later when I became a vegetarian it was about health rather than esthetics. During my journey I began to eat a lot of processed vegetarian junk (not good). I was always removing those last few pounds striving for perfection only to gain them back. However, I began to look into veganism because I wanted to feel better internally. I stumbled upon this site and I was motivated to eliminate bad habits and was amazed/ by the results and the energy of the members. I have been raw since 8/21/2008 now and have never felt better....and lost those last few pounds.. lol I have read several raw food books and have learned so much in such a short time, but it has changed my outlook immensely!!!

Hello ;)
YOu look fabulous!
Ive just started a kickboxing/weight training regime myself that is a lot more intense than any ove ever done, Im a bit concerned if a raw food diet can support this? What kinds of foods do you eat to help with your recovery after training and what kinds of foods do you avoid??
