Sophie also has a program to help others and you can find it here : www.eatmore-moveless.com/30-day-10-pounds-down-challenge Have a great day guys!

This way of eating is even in the Bible in the book of Daniel

Dropping weight is not superficial. Weight is something most women struggle with, it’s a global issue. We need to move away from shaming people for wanting to lose weight.

i love how much positivity you bring to the raw community Gillian, i feel like the community really needed and needs you!! thank you!

I became raw vegan after I started having severe problems with Irritable Bowel Syndrome many years ago. I was overweight and eating the Standard American Diet. I lost 60 lbs. and felt great when I was eating exclusively raw fruit and vegetables using some avocado for fat. No more Irritable Bowel Syndrome. Sadly over the years, I went back to the Standard American Diet. For the last four months, though, I have been on a cooked Vegan diet. I have lost 37 lbs. I have always enjoyed Gillian's channel. But in her interview with Sophie Alexandra Pool, I identified with Sophie's story as far as the transition to raw food is concerned. I am now convinced that I will go back to a raw vegan diet. Thank you Gillian and Sophie for that inspirational interview.

This was one of the best interviews you’ve done. I like Sophie’s decision not to workout in the way that society tells us to. I too was working out to lose weight and realized it wasn’t fun and the harder I exercised the less the weight was coming off. I do workout now for strength and flexibility and it’s much more fun. Also, I agree that eating cooked foods…just a bit here and a bit there becomes a slippery slope. I’ve learned how to socialize as a raw vegan now. I don’t tell people I’m raw vegan because then people become weird about it. If I know I’m going out with friends, I eat before I go and at the restaurant I order a customized salad. If I’m going to my family’s house for dinner, I contribute by making a beautiful bowl of salad that everyone can enjoy!

I think you are right when you said when you order a salad and not a burger in front of others it makes them consider the choices they make which can make them uncomfortable. I’ve seen it with my friends

Loved the interview! So inspirational!

Loved this interview!!❤

Wonderful interview so inspiring 🙌. Great job 🌱🌿🥕🥦🥭🍈🍑🫑🥒🌶🥬🍒🍋🍉🍊🍍🍎🍏🍐🍑🍓💚

This was a great conversation! Thank you.

These transformations are always so fantastic, but at the same time, so common for people willing to take more control of their health! It really allows us to have faith in the process the more we see stories like this. good stuff

What a beautiful human being, so many great quotes from this conversation! You are both glowing very inspiring- thanks👍

I am so inspired thank you both! started 4 days ago and I cant believe the way I feel already. Will continue to watch you for inspiration. thank you!

Thank you for this podcast Gillian. I didn’t know Sophie, she is so inspirational!!!!

I feel her about cooked foods being a slippery slope. I never thought about it but she definitely has a point. Thank you for this video! Love this conversation. You asked great questions.

Great interview!! She was so honest! U made her comfortable, thus we heard great info, felt like I know her and her journey!👧🦋

Thank you for this amazing podcast Gillian. I didn’t know Sophie. She is very inspirational!!!

Inspiring! I'm Sophie too and an accounting background! I did raw food for years and then regressed but have gotten back on the path. So glad there are others. I do think hardest for me has been not having supportive community and friends on the path too

She’s very inspiring and comes across well grounded. I’ve been eating more raw foods now that it’s summer. So far so good!

Great video and so inspirational. I started this journey on Saturday. It has been a bit of a challenge but watching these videos on your channel I now understand my body needs to adjust. I'm sleeping less but my quality of sleep has improved already. I no longer get brain fog (menopause), I'm a lot sharper. Feeling brilliant. Will continue to watch your videos for inspiration and motivation as want this to be a life long journey. Thank you so much for this channel. Sophie your story is amazing.

I feel I had to not talk about what I eat with friends and family… People get upset by it! I don’t say anything anymore.

Loved this interview! Your channel is really inspiring me to try raw. I feel so tired no matter what I do, even when I eat gluten free and wfpb, and the vibrancy you and your guests talk about sound so appealing. I'm going to do as you guys suggested and eat a raw breakfast for a bit then eventually transition to raw till 4 and so on.

Thank you! This came at the right time. Sophie’s BEFORE story sounds like mine.

So true about relationships changing, everyone will object and I had to fight back with my will for my health and say NO this is what I’m doing and you need to focus on you and let me focus on me. I found boundaries were a massive issue when I started to change. Eye opening experience when change is so transformative. Much love

I thank you two inspiring women for this interview! Feeling really high vibe after watching this.✌🌺

Superb Interview!! Thank you..

The two of you… just… extraordinarily lovely and real.

Thanks again Gillian for another enlightening interview. Sophie is an incredibly wise woman !!! I love you both 🙏🥑🥬🥦🥝🍉🍎🫑🥒🍍🍌🥭🍋

I absolutely love this interview! Everything she has said I've known but have struggled with bouncing back and forth between raw and cooked, even though I know I feel better when I don't eat cooked. When my daughter and her girlfriend come over for our weekly dinners and tea, I always have a salad but always some kind of cooked dish even though it's without meat. I try to prepare some kind of healthy food because they're both extremely overweight and I want to help them somehow. I love getting together with my girls and having that precious quality time, but wanting to eat the cooked when it's in front of me is hard to resist.

thanks for sharing this .it is always interesting to hear from other raw vegans and their journey, Me myself I dived into a raw food diet was starting to grow my own food . I think one thing that raw vegans barely talk about is the importance of where our food comes from ! :)

Loved It 💚

So precious!!!

Love the energy Gillian, action action like myself. Realtor also lol

hi i just started transitioning to a raw lifestyle from a traditional diet this was a great vid thanks for sharing

I love that you don’t include excess exercise

Good interview, thanks ladies! Chinese proverb... Fall down seven times stand up eight.

Yes that's with the too quick change is a point. So true. Even if you have had poisen through clothes, pestizides, dental stuff like Amalgam etc.

Love this !! I wish someone would have told me about raw food lifestyle

Great video. Does anyone know who authored the book that she mentioned about healing by what you eat? Thank you. I have been vegan for years but I’m six days raw and I feel totally different and need all the motivation and reading materials that I can get.

Thank you for this inspiring interview! I was wondering, how many years young is she? 🤗 just curious! 🤗

Great story just shows how powerful raw foods are I also had a very hard time with detox and digestive issues dealing with all the raw foods it was all well worth it I have acclimated and so happy I did I agree do what works for your body 100% true ,i really identify with her story very inspiring , she really made an amazing transformation hooray for her🙌

This was so good. Thank you. I like that she talked about ending up in ER because her liver was having a hard time with the speed of detox, and slowing the detox down some with the steamed veggies. Sometimes slow is better to avoid the life-threatening detox symptoms. “Dr.” Morse always says to dig deep, but recommends the ER and the list of detox symptoms, from dr Morse, is horrendous. Difficult going through getting stuff up and out. Most won’t, and will stay on medications. Understandable… it’s not an easy journey for many. The Functional Medicine doctors, as I see it, are just about getting people off of processed foods to more whole foods, and a reduction of medications but not about true healing. I think eating high quality meat does that for people, but is it worth the damage it will do to the body? My son has chosen vegan for the ethical reasons, and I’m concerned because he is eating cooked vegan and some vegan junk food, too. But he does eat a lot of fruits and salads too. I make raw dressings for him.

Such a great video, please do one on deterioration bc alot of people are so scared of that.

Great talk. Thanks. FYI the link to her 30 day program does not seem to work

Hi Gillian Is it possible to upload these as audio only ( like Apple podcast etc) ? Totally understand if it’s too hard etc so no biggie just wondering as it would be awesome to listen to these conversations on a bike ride etc. Either way thanks again 🙏

Slowing down the detox process is what Dr Morse talks about too

Sophie you look gorgeous without make up so healthy looking! 👏👏👏

Sophie has amazing skin! She looks so healthy. And empowered!! Wow.

That was an amazing podcast! Sophie is just full light, love, and wisdom! I wish you guys well. I have a question though: Did you or do you feel cold when eating just raw? I have noticed every time i try to eat raw, i feel so freezing :( and i go back to cooked. Thank you again! 🙏

Please interview FullyRawKristina! She's been raw for so long and basically lives my dream life in HI.

I can totally relate to the not exercising thing cause I usually did it for weight loss too . I've been vegan for 5 years and occasionally raw. Now since January I've been raw and losing weight healthfully. It's weird losing weight as I eat without exercise. But I do feel I need to do yoga because I'm home sitting all day. I eat more vegetables over fruit.

it's okay to feel hungry. you don't always have to "eat more". I was one of those people who HATED the feeling of hunger...sometimes hunger is okay. it's just a feeling.

Please interview Tannyraw.

How do you eat fruit with out the acids killing your stomach ?

What about diabetes. Can they consume all the fruits?

What about raw avocado and flaxseeds to slow down the detoxification?

also, what book she talk about ?? Please can you answer this ?

6:30 this lady talking about tinnitus ringing in her ears 24/7 from stress, that exactly what I am dealing with

Who was the man you worked with?

Could it be the placebo effect why so many people can’t go back to cooked foods because they feel bad Well actually called nocebo effect meaning you think it’s bad and the power of the mind makes it so that it is

Do you eat only organic? Hoping that is a “no” because that adds another level of difficulty. (Access)

👏 🍉

Very revealing. When you go down the rabbit hole, there's no return.

Which book did Sophia read? 📚

Great interview! My turn now

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. John 14:6

How old is she?

I'm searching full day of eating 😒

What guy.... she talk about a guy that help her at the begining...what guy ?

What is her contact info….

Inspiring. Glad she stopped wearing make up.

I have a hard time with this video. I did change my diet cold turkey, cut eggs, oils, chicken yogurt...to whole full plant base so free and nothing from junk vegan products. Only salad, kale, sprouts, fruits, oats, rice... The results one year later....I am tired of salad, I feel weak, low energy, my skin is awfully dry, losing hair... Seems like far, far, from what you are saying. 😔

Look at how many flipping adverts you have in the video. Clearly not bothered about your subscribers and clearly wanting to make money from us watching. Theres too many. Hope you sort that out

Inspiring! I'm Sophie too and an accounting background! I did raw food for years and then regressed but have gotten back on the path. So glad there are others. I do think hardest for me has been not having supportive community and friends on the path too
