Time
Some parts of switching to a raw food diet require more time than you would need with your current diet. But, like most things, if something is worth doing, then it is worth doing properly. Fuelling our bodies is one of the most fundamental things we do.Motivation
We say that you should not beat yourself up over your motivation levels. Motivation levels fluctuate. Just because they are high one day and lower the next, it does not mean that you are not motivated. Just because you cannot do it all the time, it does not mean that you cannot do it most of the time. And most of the time is better, in our opinion, than not at all.Fear of missing out
Most social occasions have a focus on food. Relax! More and more people and restaurants are catering for vegans or raw fooders. If they can’t cater for you, or you are reluctant to ask, then just take an afternoon off, or do what I do and take a salad with you and or a dish to share, people love it.Equipment
Don’t spend thousands on new kitchen stuff when you are starting out. Start simple. You need four things when starting out:- A good knife
- A basic blender
- A food processor
- A basic juicer
