SO ANGRY

I'm so sick and tired of ignorant people who think they know all.

And the worst...They are my family

My mother and my sister often critisise me because of my will to be a hcrv.

I haven't succeed to stay raw since my baby's birth (all most 7 month) but I trie hard.

I gained weight because of that, but right after birth, I was much thinner than now (arround 8 kilos)

Anyway, yesterday, we had a huge fight in wich smy sister said that if the diet was that good, I wouldn' t be that fat. I told her it was BECAUSE I failed to stay raw that I gained weight but she didn' t want to ear it...She pointed out that beeing eating coocked and eating meat, she was thin and I was fat.

Plus, they say I'm distructing my health while they eat meat everydays, are used to "pasta cheese oil" as a main meal, and eat virtually no fruits and vegetables...

My mom wants to send me to a shrink AND a dietician because she think I'm SICK!

I find the whole thing STINKS!!!

Any advices?

Comment by charlotte madadi-fiorina on March 2, 2012 at 10:32am: Thanks for the comments all of you

I've been raw again since yesterday, and I' l keep it this way!

They have been so mean (especially my sister, my mother beeing still mild) with me, that it gave me even more energy to fight and stay on track!!!They' l see who is the healthy one!!!

Giggles8Jiggles, that's a good idea to trie to show them, but they are so narrow-minded, that they just wont have the courtesy to trie and listen...She says that the longest living beeins on this chinese, or japanese island, and that they eat fish, meat and other animals products...I said indeed, but they nevertheless eat a 80/10/10 diet, and that other verry long living tribes on earth were living as long or longer beeing vegetarians, vegan, and rawist...she said it was B%#ll sh@%t!!!Plus, she called me a terrible mother because I want my child to be vegan as well, she said I was not giving her the choice...WTF, she is pregnant, and i gonna feed her child meat, mcdo and other crap...does HER child has a choice? I don' t think so! So I wont trie and convince them, but I would just appreciate if they would ad least respecte my choices, and stop criticizing me everyday...Bean big Sexy Rich...I already stoped seeing them...I didn't talk to them 1 year long 4 years ago, and I started talking to them 3 weeks ago, after not talking 8 month long to them!I still have to see how things go with my mom, but sure thing, I don't want to see my sister untill I go back home (my parents, my sister and brother live in south france, and I, my baby and husband in germany, I was just visiting)

Comment by Jon Fergus on March 2, 2012 at 7:24am: Advice: Do your best to live the HCRV lifestyle. If you can succeed in it, your health will speak for itself. Use your exchanges with your family to fuel your desire to attain optimal health; it'll get a lot easier to argue for HCRV when you're fully exemplifying it. :)

2nd Advice: surround yourself with positive influences as much as possible and limit the time spent with those who try to drag you down, even if they are family.

Lastly, you may never convince them, so try not to get too attached to the idea. Most of my family think I'm a bit off, some think I'm outright crazy, but it's no big deal. I'm used to it now. In fact, I've learned to own it... proudly! :D
