I became HCRV about 5 months ago after refining my diet from high raw. I came to it after suffering health problems since my teen years, eating disorders, chronic fatigue, interstitial cystitis,excess weight, depression, acne etc which didn't improve with other dietary change, including the standard vegan diet. I was a vegetarian for many years for ethical reasons but had very poor health. I put this down to candida so I hardly ever ate fruit. I became more and more of a raw foodist but still had many health problems. Then I came to Doug Graham and the 8-1-1 diet which convinced me to try fruit again. So I changed my diet to high fruit, low fat and couldn't believe the results. After 25 years my health problems have gone or are healing! I can't express how amazing it is to be able to eat as much fruit as I like. Not only do I love it but I can live the ethical lifestyle I believe in.
My passions are art, music, film, anything creative, philosophy, spirituality and the human condition.
I was born with Aspergers syndrome, but that's a whole other story. I live in a small town in England with no vegan friends.
My life, health and spirituality have gone through something of a transformation this last year, and this is where it has brought me. I'm excited to be here.

My favourite books/movies/authors/pastimes are...
I love my kids, art, reading about nutrition, Indie music, film, going for long walks in the outdoors, mother nature, anything handmade, beautiful and individual. Could not live without music, love, love, love it, but I am an artist at heart, with the intention of using my art to promote a plant based lifestyle.
The Frugivore started this site to bring together frugivores across the Globe! Let us know what high fruit assistance do you need?
I have gone from a high raw diet to a nearly 100% raw high carb vegan diet. I am eating more and more fruit everyday. I have absolutely no doubt that it is the food that my body instinctively wants to eat. It's great to be apart of a community like this.

Nice to meet you too!
No problem :) yup, in Kent
Thanks for the friend request :-) Certainly happy to accept.
Hey Cassandra, yeah you're right Lincoln is nice (Skegness was a joke really, it's not the most amazing place known to man!). I got in contact with Sean regarding meeting up and he has his exams coming up in the middle of May so said for him it's a difficult time, so it'll just be the two of us. I'm looking forward to the meeting! When I'm in Lincoln, (don't know if I told you, it'll be around the 21st May onwards) I will send you a message. Happy fruit eating, wish I was doing more, you're fruit basket photo looks so colourful and tasty!
Hi thanks for the message, must be tough in Lincolnshire with all the meat eaters! Would be interesting to know how many 811ers there are in the UK, bet there aren't too many. I've not started anything much yet just trying to eat more raw and still eating fish every other day! Good to see you're doing so well on it :)
Hi Cassandra - yes would be great to meet up - when are you next down? :)
Excellent Cassandra! :) I'm glad!
Hey Cassandra, yeah it's so great to have the opportunity to meet others with similar lifestyles that others think are insane! Although, I'm not in lincoln yet, can't remember if I messaged you that I'm in France at the moment. But I will be back in Lincoln on the 21st of May for 2 weeks so if you have some free time during then, that would be so great. Also, further good news for you.. there's another guy on here- Sean Kelley, really friendly who's studying at Notts uni and we're planning to meet up during May, so maybe the 3 of us can get together. I suggested to him Lincoln, I know it's not the best place in the world but it appears to be smack bang in between you and him. But open to other suggestions... skeg!?
