RAW Days 60-65
My new raw life continues to float along swimmingly. In the past week, five people have remarked on my weight loss and one person came over to specifically remark on the glow of my skin. This all becomes more significant when you consider that I haven't told anyone other than direct family that I am eating raw, and I really don't know very many people.

I'm only recently raw so I spend a lot of time web surfing for ideas, information, and inspiration. It's so fun to look through the membership here already and recognize so many people from their blogs and testimonials. It's wonderful.
