Hello! My name is J.R., I'm 29, and I've been a raw vegan for about 3 1/2 months now. I decided to join 30bananasaday after about a month or so of lurking around the website and finally deciding that I wanted to be a part of the HCRV community. A little about me and my diet: I have an intake of around 1500 calories a day. I know that's low, but it works for me. Like the posting says, over the last few months I've lost a total of 118 lbs., my type 2 diabetes is gone, my blood pressure is back to normal, my bouts with depression are gone, and not to mention my energy is through the roof.
Over the course of my life I've been on every single diet you can think of and I gotta say that the transition into the raw vegan lifestyle has been the easiest one of all. For me it wasn't a very difficult transition because I was so sick and tired of being sick and tired, and I knew that this was the right thing for me. It's great to be here!
