My raw food journey began in September 2004. Some people may think I'm crazy for living this way but I love how good eating raw foods makes me feel. This is my daily struggle with trying to maintain this type of lifestyle and to attempt to get my boyfriend (who is in the picture with me) to eat more raw foods.

Bridal Shower
So things have been going very well over the past couple of weeks. I was eating more and more cooked until I couldn't take it any longer. I have been doing 100% raw since Monday and feel better already.
John is Greek Orthodox, his Easter was this past weekend and that dinner was the last type of cooked food I have eaten. I have a bridal shower to go to... which I organized... this Sunday so I want to make sure that I look and feel good for all of the pictures.
I made my raw hummus last night but used way too much garlic. My entire house still smells of it.
Went to a raw restaurant called Pure Food and Wine in NYC two weeks ago. Had an absolutely amazing meal! That was the first time I have ever eaten a raw meal that didn't taste raw. I can't wait to go back. I even ate an amazing raw ice cream sundae. I have no idea how they made all of that stuff but I HAVE to learn.

The restaurant you ate at in NYC - Pure Food and Wine is owned by the authors of "Real Food Real World" - one of the books advertised on your site. My boyfriend and I have been reading this book and have learned so much. This is actually the book that got us started on our raw food lifestyle...we're hooked!
Nice site!

My goodness Mara! I am in such awe of raw food dieters. I still get such cravings for warmth in my belly. Although raw would certainly make it easier for you to eat healthy anywhere because you could bring your food with you everywhere. I did't even know they had raw food restaurants! That's incredible! You look beautifully healthy, you and your finance. You're certainly inspiring.
