I have been doing a lot of research on the raw vegan lifestyle and I am very interested in changing to that lifestyle. I recently became a vegan in December in 2009 but before that I really didnt eat alot of meat. I would eat beef, lamb or fish so cuting out meat is not really hard for me. I am interested in others experiences with the raw vegan lifestyle. Please share!

    I am really interested in raw foods, I've read quite a bit on it lately. I'm only about 80% raw and havn't been for very long.. but would like to hopefully one day go 100%. We'll see...

    Have people come across Dan the Liferegenerator on YouTube. He is 95% raw and is a really inspirational guy. Apart from having tons of recipes, he is a funny and intelligent person whose thoughts always keep me going. He is the reason my husband and I are trying to transition to being raw foodies!
    we did 100% raw for a week over easter and than had amazing snap back! Since realised going cold turkey is not the way to go without going insane!

    Lol yeah going cold turkey can make you a bit crazy! But I feel for me this was the only way. But I tend to be extreme when making changes in my life. I think when I first tried to go raw vegan I transitioned into it and I was not really serious about it because I was still eating cooked processed food with some raw or I would be raw for some days and then eat horrible. I think not eating any unhealthy food and all raw has helped me stick to eating raw.

    Funny cause I was actually looking for this topic. I discovered Dan The Man on youtube yesterday, and decided to give it a try. I won't go 100% raw but I'm trying for 75% raw. Today I did 100% raw and I'm felling great. Summer is here so it helps. Hopefully this is the lifestyle change I was looking for.

    Today I had some fresh homemade salsa with some zucinni slices instead of chips and I loved it. (one of Dan The Man's idea!)
