Introduction

I am diabetic and joined for dietary reasons. I am the blonde in the photo with my sister, who is also eating raw and lives in Harpers Ferry, WV.

Describe your current eating style, example: vegetarian, standard American diet, about 50% raw, etc...

Since early March I have been eating raw for breakfast and lunch, and sometimes at dinner. I eat small amounts of meat at dinner, and try to keep away from white foods.

What do you hope to get out of raw food Meetups?

My main goals are that I hope to get off insulin, blood pressure medication.and lower my cholesterol numbers. I hope to find that these Meetups will help me fulfill these goals. Oh yes, I understand eating raw can help arthritis and vision as well.

What are the biggest challenges facing you with regard to your eating habits?

Eating dinner with my family at night. We eat healthy, but not vegan or raw.

Do you have a favorite raw food dish or recipe? If so, what is it?

The best one I have tried is a tomato/basil soup.

What Bette Haddox is saying about this Meetup Group

Even the short time I have been trying raw food, I can feel the good effects. I am not, and may never be totally raw, but I feel any raw makes a huge difference for me. I have shared information with my doctor and the pharmacist I work with in her office, hoping they will be impressed enough to suggest it to other diabetics they work with. I think joining with others keeps interest high, and learning new thing about raw food fun.
