Hi Andrea, a lot of raw foodies start off feeling kind of alone as they embark upon their journey. I know some raw foodies who’s immediate families are not aware of their lifestyle change. The goal for you might be to acknowledge that you are not getting the right kinds of support from the people who are currently in your life, and then seek out ways in which you can get that support. Check out meetup.com and see if there is a local raw food or vegan group that meets up near you for starters, maybe also consider going on a wellness retreat or joining a volunteer organization. We truly do believe and know from experience that the more you own up to your journey and put yourself out there, the more you will find like minded people who are willing to support you and provide you with the good energy you need. Wishing you much success on your journey!

Good point! Thank you for acknowledging that being into fantasy football is not gender specific.

Part of the problem with a Dream Team, for me, is that the people I love the most are the least likely to be supportive of something like this. I’m slowly introducing myself to a raw foods diet, and while my boyfriend looks on with a bemused expression, I can guarantee that family will scoff. And scoff a lot. Partly from a sense of being threatened, I would imagine, but it isn’t helpful.

Hey, I know women who are into fantasy football. Not me, personally, but some friends and coworkers. It’s not just your male readers.

these posts are great! thanks for this great website – it really showcases all aspects of the raw foods lifestyle, which is more than just food. vibrant health is created from not just what we put into our bodies…it is also created by our attitudes towards ourselves, other living creatures, our planet, etc. love the “fave five” thought too

Another thought, think of it as your Fave Five (like for your wireless cell phone plan). If you could pick 5 people to be in your circle, who would they be.
