Steve Pavlina, blogger and webprenuer is going raw for a month. His new year’s resolution is to eat a healthy raw vegan diet for at least 30 days:

“I’ve decided to kick off 2008 with a 30-day trial of eating a 100% raw vegan diet.[...]I’m eager to give it another try now because I’ve greatly increased my knowledge of how to succeed on this diet. [...]After I experienced the incredible energy and vitality of my first 30-day raw trial, I’ve always wanted to return to it. Being vegan has given me a lot of benefits, both mental and physical (see Why Vegan? for details), but what I experienced from an all-raw diet was even better. I felt totally euphoric during my first raw trial, like I was constantly buzzing on an emotional high. Other raw foodists have reported similar results. The incredible feeling of well-being — emotionally, mentally, physicially, and spiritually – is perhaps the diet’s most attractive benefit. I had enough of a taste of that feeling to know that it’s worth some effort to figure this out. If it takes me a few more years, so be it.”

I’m not even close to going raw yet, I can’t even seem to give up sugar yet, but I certainly think raw is an excellent way to go. One of my new year’s resolution is to go raw one day a week.
