Well ive never been a vegetarian or anything like that in my life but i always played with the idea.
Just before i found this site, for a few weeks ive been doing some searching online for the reasons not having enough energy to do the things i liked to do
in general and to lose some weight (though i dont really have a lot to lose, about 12kg and i already lost 5kg in these last few weeks, but want that flat tummy

Finding out about veganism and particularly raw veganism i, as many, was impressed by the experiences of raw vegan Tim VanOrden (im sure everybody know him by now) I decided to be a raw vegan myself.
The only problem that i had for being a raw vegan is:
eating raw vegetables.
I just couldnt do it, i had to steam them a bit to make them less strong.
Like cale for example.
So i continued my research and i found out about fruitarianism.
My main concern with this was that it wasnt very popular and the people practicing it didnt look very serious so i thought there could be problem with this.
Then i stumbled upon Waisays and i gotta tell you i was really relieved when I read in her book that we have everything in fruits that we have in vegetables.
So actually what im planning to do is, on the long run of course because its gonna take time to adapt i guess, to follow Wai's diet and to "evolve" towards fruitarianism. That is to say only to eat yolk and raw fish if i
feel the need: if tired, feeling down etc...
Because if the vegans can do it i gotta give it a try myself.
I also think that nutrition as a science is one thing and real life examples are another. Seeing that science doesnt know everything yet, a little experience cant harm either.
But anyway it looks like a great community here with a lot of nice people,
I already browsed the forums and now i'd have a few questions to ask too.
Ps i already registered a week ago but in the email that i recieved it says
that i had to wait for another email before posting, but i never recieved the second one.
