My little sister has been living a raw lifestyle for a while now (with a few hiccups)...She LOVES it. I must say, I've read a lot about the philosophy behind eating "raw" and I've followed people's blogs who are on that journey (here)... I just don't know if my will power is strong enough to resist all the foods I've grown up with...One thing I have been doing is incorporating Green Smoothies into my diet, and I love them! So 10 points for me, for trying to make some good changes... but I definitely need more.
I'm curious to hear if you have ever tried to do a raw "diet" and your goods/bads of it all....
One of the things that holds me back on full-force mode is that I have 2 children and a husband to feed as well. I have incorporated a lot of stuff and they've been pretty good...but if it gets too "weird" they all crinkle their noses at me. The kids drink the Green Smoothies with me (another 10 points), Cole would rather DIE. haha.

I have a good friend who has done strictly raw for almost a year now and he loves it. He did say that his groceries are VERY expensive though. I wish I had the will power to try it for a while!
You should share your green smoothie recipes. I keep meaning to try to make some, but haven't gotten around to it.
You know me, I looooovvvvveeee salad, but I have no desire to go all raw. I like enchiladas too much ;D
I have known some people who do a raw diet, and I agree, it would be a very challenging change to make. My hubby thinks vegetarian is wierd sometimes :) I also think if you are going to go raw, you REALLY have to know what you are doing so that you make sure you are getting all the protien and vitamins and such that your body needs. And I like enchiladas too...
