I had a super hard time too... there is not alot out there.... I started out with a book called Rawvolution by matt amsden. then I just started scouring the internet and found a couple of small web boards like this... and went blindly into it!
I caught ALOT of flack from nay sayers who said it was unhealthy and that I would never get enough protein blablabla.... Well take a look at gorillas. They are doing just fine on their raw diet and I don't see them dropping dead from protein deficiencies.... do you?? in fact... have you ever known any one who has died from a lack of protein??? hmmm...
I will say that my weakness is sushi.... so I'm 95% raw... I do go for sushi and there is cooked rice and the eel is cooked and the edemame is steamed... so when I go for sushi I eat some cooked foods.... I don't believe in 100% deprivation!!! If you try to go "all in" you'll fail!
I say just do as much as you can... some change is better than none! Thats what I did, and eventually it just took over! lol
