Major Stall No More- Solution, Raw Food

Aug 14, 2009

So for the last month I have been in a major stall fluctating in the 170's. I admit it has been all my fault. I got caught up with eating all the wrong things. So, when I changed my bad eating for the right one and I still wasn't losing, I decided to do a Raw Food Diet/Fast. Eatng all natural fruits, vegetables, and nuts has been a lot easier now that I am sleeved, although the first time around I lasted for 13 days. I had to do something to stop my eating sweets, the fruits are a perfect substitute. You might be a meatatarian and not interested, in that case, read no more.

Here's my routine:
Breakfast - Smoothie
Snack - Fruit
Lunch - Salad with nuts
Snack- Fruit or veggies, nuts
Snack - Fresh Juice
Dinner - Veggie (raw food recipe or Lovingitlive.com)
Snack- Smoothie
I also have plenty of distilled or spring water and take the vitamin supplements (Multivitamins, fish oil, B12 and Calcium)

I am down 5 pounds since Monday (5 days). I am going to keep this raw food lifestyle for at least the work week but maybe fulltime. It's just that the foods taste so much better than cooked food and my body is responding so well to it. I will watch my protein intake because I want to make sure I am getting enough. Suprisingly enough a lot of veggies do have proteins and of course the nuts have it. If you are considering this to help you out be sure to read all the websites that tell you how to do it right, I have done this three times now and everytime by day three I had to run to the restroom for a serious inner colon cleanse that occurs from eating such healthy food filled with fiber and more. Here are some site for more information www.alissacohen.com rawguru.com, www.thebestofrawfood.com or just do search engine research on raw food, or go to: http://www.rawfoodplanet.com/. There are also some mail order raw food restaurants that will deliver in case you are in a location with no restaurants - www.welikeitraw.com.
