Greetings~

I have been in this group for a couple months, but I have never introduced

myself--

I am pleased to have discovered this group because I am learning so much and

find the folks here to be very compassionate, understanding & helpful.

My name is Leslie, I am a widowed mother of four kids & I am forty-something. I

have been vegetarian for years, then became vegan macrobiotic. (I have seen

several folks use macrobiotics to recover from cancer, and I became quite

healthy, energetic, clear-minded & thin on macrobiotics.) But I noticed that I

really craved fresh food while involved in this lifestyle (all fruit/veggies are

cooked in macro). I also spent a LOT of time COOKING--argh!

I have been on the raw journey for about 3 yrs. & it has been a struggle for me!

In the beginning I loved it & felt successful with it (good energy/good

food/potlucks/raw festival, etc), but then I noticed less energy, cravings,

weight gain, etc. & began to wonder & explore more . . .

I discovered the work of Gabriel Cousens & began to suspect FRUIT!

But I have not been successful with his lifestyle suggestions & found myself

sneaking FRUIT!!!!!!!

So, this group (esp. Elchanan's suggestions) have been a sort of revelation for

me & I am just beginning to put these suggestions into practice. I am noticing

how MUCH FAT has been a part of my regular diet & the sluggishness that

results--

but

I wonder how one manages to eat so much produce in a day? I think I ofen use fat

(nuts, etc) & dehydrated foods as a quick way to eat in a hurry. My life is so

busy, I wonder how I will manage to eat enough . . .

Anyone care to comment on this? Suggestions as to how you manage it in your

day-to-day?

many thanks to all the thoughtful souls here--

I am grateful to you all!

blessings,

Leslie
