On 811, you don't become skin and bones like other raw diets. You won't lose weight, my man, unless you have fat to lose. At first, it will probably take some practice to learn to eat enough calories, but once you get that down, you will get to your…

Welcome Alexander! if you match your caloric need you will not loose any fat. However, you WILL loose water weight as your body becomes healthier and less toxic. This is a GOOD thing and something to be proud of. i am much stronger now i am on 811 a…
If you dont want to lose weight, eat enough calories from fruit and do weights to build muscle while you are dropping fat. If you dont, you will probably will look skinnier, and your energy will be too low. You should get 80% minimum of calories fro…
As far as gaining weight, I assume you mean muscle, do low-rep-high-weight weight training. Very little cardio and no endurance training. Get plenty of sleep and calories. Eat huge green salads every night. I once thought I had an addiction to coffe…
I know exactly what you mean in terms of not losing weight, because im in the same exact boat. You will lose weight no matter what, but you have to remember that your body will put it right back on when it needs. You get rid of water weight not fat…
I'd switch to green tea or yerba matte for awhile if you don't want to go cold turkey. These are far better choices. I was addicted for years but I'm totally off caffeine.

- I've been interested in optimal health since I was a teenager. I tried a raw food diet for a month when I was 16, and I felt great. I'm in nursing school at Sonoma State University. It's been very stressful and my healthy lifestyle habits have been on hold. I'm definitely suffering from less energy and decreased ability to focus. Maybe this 80/10/10 diet will help me feel more energetic and happier. I practice the martial arts of Taiji, Bagua, and Xing-I.

Great to meet a fellow martial artist. Is your taiji an internal art or similar to tai chi?

Brian Cheney said… - Thanks for the advice : ) Yeah, I want to stay centered and grounded as much as possible because I know I'm in for a course that will demand 100% commitment. It should be a great experience though. Much respect to you!
Personally, I followed Dr. D's advice when I started 811 almost 4 months ago by slowly incorporating more and more raw food into my diet. Basically, the more raw food I ate, the more likely I was to not eat cooked food simply because I wouldn't be hungry for it. The high fiber and water content as well as nutritional value of these raw foods are great for keeping you feeling full for longer. The trick is to become accustomed to the volume of food that is needed and this just takes some time. I'm still new to this whole process myself.
My mom and step dad live over in the Berkely area in Cali...right next door to you. I was down there for the first time a few weeks ago. It was awesome! San Fran was gorgeous. Wonderful area for sure : )

Boring after the third or fourth time? .........
It sounds like you've read the game too many times.
just wanted to add that I have scored ripe bananas at a good price at airports before so it is worth looking around particularly at bigger airports (and the look on your fellow travellers' faces when you're chowing down on 10 nanners at 30k ft is pr…

Ever since I first heard eggs described as chicken menstruations I've had a problem ingesting them.
I second this Sultana, for sure.
Thanks B, excellent info as usual!
Europe is different.
People started to think about nature and saving nature early on.
We have alot of law regulations about animal treatment at the farms and they are well let us say getting "closer" to the natural one.
for example cows are free run…
no haven't heard that about the soap and cancer, seeing it's allopathic in nature (addressing a symptom not the cause) I can't imagine how that would work.
