had problems with some of my teeth that were on the meridians connected to my lungs, some teeth with root canals and metal fillings. In January, I got those tooth problems handled and that left me with few options but soft food until my mouth healed. I could have eaten protein shakes, chocolate pudding or mashed potatoes and any number of soft versions of the foods that I had been eating.
Instead, I took the opportunity to change my diet and only ate raw fruits and vegetables. My energy came back, I could walk as far as time permitted and the pounds started coming off. I got excited and wanted to keep it going. I've stayed with 80 to 90% raw food with some eggs, chicken and fish, some beans and some brown rice. And yes, I do eat junk once in a while.
