my advice to you is to buy a juicer and a dehydrater, they come in handy.

A good tip is to keep healthy foods stocked up.
Fruits, vegetables and nuts are essential must haves. A raw vegan diet includes raw vegetables and fruits, nuts and nut pastes, grain and legume sprouts, seeds, plant oils, sea vegetables, herbs, and fresh juices.
Why not make your own delicious, health boosting smoothies?

The juicer and smoothie route is a great start.
Good luck!

You’ll need to be able to store the produce if you can’t make shopping a part of your daily or biweekly routine. That became a problem for me, and gets in the way of my efforts.
Good luck. I saw a difference in my energy level. I never gave up meat, but cut back a great deal. I think it is worth the effort.

Organic Food Bar has some raw bars and a protein kind that is 80% raw. They are really good!

The best books to start with are “Raw Food Made Easy” by Jennifer Cornbleet- which has great recipes that do not require special equipment like a high speed juicer, dehydrator, or spiral slicer, and “The Complete Book of Raw Food” by Lori Baird and Julie Rodwell which is full of resources, nutritional info, and basic recipes.
Best advice? Consume fat. Keep a supply of avocados and raw nuts on hand for when you get cravings.
And find a supplier of Lara Bars. You won’t believe how good they are!
Find your staples, and make them frequently- for me that includes flax seed tostadas & guacamole, cashew ranch dressing and baby carrots, and frozen bananas for smoothies and ice cream.

Raw dairy will keep your hair from falling out
Also seaweed
Otherwise in a few months you’ll be losing fistfuls of hair in the shower
Avoid alcohol OMG one sip will make you so hungover after all the detox
Carbs (pasta,bread,rice) you’ll be sensitive so if you cheat on a raw diet with these foods you’ll likely crash (sleep)
Raw vegan food is tasty
food prep takes a while
eat a lot of food
watch your gums, too much fruit will make them recede = painful
