Author	Topic: Thanxs... cleared up after a few weeks
kikiecheekee 01-14-2003 10:42 PM	I've been on this diet for over a year and it works in terms of eliminating acne, decreasing cellulite and reaching the ideal set point weight. Before the diet, I had severe acne around my jaw line and cheek bones. After a few weeks on the sample diet, this cleared up and now I have no scars to prove this. So if anyone is having trouble starting out on this diet, remember it does work, and once initiated, there is no turning back to old habits and troubled skin.

kikiecheekee 01-15-2003 04:51 PM	Thanks for the reply. As for your questions, well I always had a "dirty" face with up to ten to fifteen zits at a time. Even when my skin was at its best, there was still five to six pimples to cover up. Only these pimples were hard to cover since they were quite large. It took about a week for me to see a difference and about three weeks to clear skin. Before the diet I ate lots of "not so healthy" health food; (ie: vitamins, vegstables, broiled fish, yogert, feta cheese, pasta...), so the conversion to a raw food, fruit, brazil nut and sashimi diet was simple. As for cellulite, it took about three months for a significant different to be seen. Now that I have limited my intake of salt, tea and starbucks coffee, my cellulite looks even better. As for weightloss, I really did not want to lose weight, instead I wanted to maintain a more steady weight; I no longer juggle 10-15 pounds, my weight remains ideal and consistant.
