About Me:: I am an entrepreneur and a natural bodybuilder living here in central New Jersey. I am new to the raw food scene but I would love to learn more about the health benefits of going raw and help spread the word.

How can the community best support you in your journey? (moral support, transition advice, fitness tips, etc): Get new raw recipes to keep me healthy and energized for my workouts.

Interests (outside of Raw Food):: Architecture, working out at the gym, traveling and starting new business ventures

GI2MR Oath: I promise to do my best to keep this community drama free. I will not name call or throw around personal attacks. I pledge to be respectful even if I do not agree with another member's opinion. When possible, I'll try to smile : ): Yes! I accept the GI2MR Oath.

Did you transform on a completely plant based diet? I believe Tim Van Orden aka Running Raw and Bryan Au are writing about their experiences body building based on a plant based diet as well. It'd be cool to see what worked for everyone. I follow Running Raw, because he actually displays his performance run time. Blessings, lily

Goodluck with your raw journey, let me know if anything raw ever evolves for us up there!! Take care!

Woow, you a sweetie to talk with the pros and share the goodness. :) Thank you. Just the thought alone is very kind!

At 11:57pm on September 10, 2008, Lori said…: I am serious about doing surf retreats and snowboarding retreats. I have never hosted one and would love to learn the ropes from a pro before doing it myself. I also would like to team up with others. I haven't actively pursued it lately, but you are a fabulous reminder. I am glad you like the idea. Now, I need to find someone with experience!

At 2:42pm on September 10, 2008, Lori said…: Thanks for checking out my silly videos. They kept me on track. Good luck with going raw. You'll definitely have to play around with your diet before you get what's right for you. I am still doing it!

At 11:30am on September 10, 2008, Lori said…: I have videos of the raw process on youtube. In the side text are I posted my diet and workouts. If it is not posted it is on my blogspot. I am still tweaking it all to get it right. Being 100% was enough to juggle, now I am stepping it up a notch!
BTW, I have noticed that light facing me rather than being behind me was more flattering, However, I have tons of videos that you can check out and you can determine what you think. I do have pretty good skin, but the right lighting makes it look better!

In the UK training is easy, you just make it easy :) I guess, I train for fun and not for professional purposes so I can be more happy and less stressed.

You?
