Our community would be delighted to know you better. Please tell us more about yourself and what brought you to the Frugivore Diet. Detailed responses will only be accepted (feel free to reapply with more detail if at first not approved as a member).

I first learned about raw some years ago, when I was looking for a diet on youtube. Soon enough I realized it is not a way to lose weight, but a way of living! It opened up a new world to me that I was thirsdy to know everything around it. I was as attracted to this diet, as I was when I first learned about reiki. Both of them were meant to be my passion and I believe my path. Last summer I finally tried to follow raw diet, but I soon realized that I was just not that ready. So I decided that I could be a vegan, as a transitioning stage, and I am vegan since the beginning of this year!! I'm already feeling lighter, I dropped 4-5 pounds, my skin is waaaay better and even my ability to smell increased... for examble I can clearly smell eggs in ingredients, so nobody can fool me!! The worst part of it is that I can smell raw meat when I am at the market...that's just horrible and I'm turning away! So, last month I realize pounds doesn't drop anymore, plus I really care for my health, so I want something to clear me up, so I can hopefully consume more fruits...some detox fast... but Freelee's videos are more encouraging than that, talking about high carbs and all that stuff... From her youtube channel I found this forum and I'm ready to make friends and see what's coming next...maybe some 10 day fast, maybe some 30 day raw or more, you never know!

Please tell us about your dietary inclinations:

I'm not HCRV but would enjoy participating in the discussions

The Frugivore started this site to bring together frugivores across the Globe! Let us know what high fruit assistance do you need?

I'm a person that likes to research and know what's coming next when entering a new area. That helps me to maintain my interest and not quitting... I want to start a raw food diet someday, hopefully soon, but I'm not that ready to start eating 30 bananas or 2 salads a day... I mean that my taste and my body is not ready for that amount of that kind of food, but my mind says this is the real food... So, I suspect that there must be a good transitioning way, or recipes that will be satisfying to my eye, taste and digestion... I just don't know how to do it yet! Most of the times when I'm trying to eat as raw as possible, I don't feel that well in the stomach and this is frustrating. I don't want that, I want to feel satisfied and not like I'm constandly hungry (by the way, apples more than anything make me feel like starving even if I wasn't hungry before consuming them). I'm hoping for easy ingredient and preparation recipes (I don't own or have any money to buy a dehydrator or a vitamix yet, I just own a food processor and a personal blender), which however won't be just apple, apple and apple and will make me feel good. This forum's information, along with like minded people & new raw fooders like me (transitioning buddies) is what I hope to find in this forum. Of course, if Freelee is also participating for encouragement, that would be awesome!!
