DCDrew replied to M. Lee's discussion How in the heck can you eat that many calories?! in the group Beginners in a fruitarian/raw vegan lifestyle
"You lack energy because it appears you are not eating that many carbs.  Only 5 bananas and 18 dates? Only 1 cup of pineapple? You need at least 3x more fruit. "

A lot of Vegan haters out there.

Its great being apart of this community where there is a lot of support, love and respect for the lifestyle we’ve embarked on, but I have to say, there is a tremendous amount of hate, suspicion, and just outright hostility out there towards Vegans.  I’ve only been on LFHCRV for about two months, and I’ve had amazing results, but the hardest part about the lifestyle change hasn’t been eating lots of fruits and veggies, frankly that’s been highly enjoyable – the most annoying and difficult part…See More

Profile Information

Our community would be delighted to know you better. Please tell us more about yourself and what brought you to 30BaD. Detailed responses will only be accepted (feel free to reapply with more detail if at first not approved as a member). We suggest you pick a name other than your own if you want to maintain anonymity.
My name is DCDrew and I live in Washington D.C. Around the first of this year I got really sick with food poisoning (eating meat) while visiting my brother in California. I was so sick for three days I could hardly move. After getting better, and after assessing my overall health, I decided that I had to change my life and my diet. I am severely overweight, and need to drop about 100lbs to get back to a healthy weight again. I was fed up, I had to make a lifestyle change and get back to health. After doing a lot of research, including watching Forks over Knives, Food Matters and reading the China Study, I decided that I need to go vegan. While researching the vegan lifestyle I ran across Freelee and Durianrider's videos, which I found hilarious btw, and learned about this website and the high carb raw vegan lifestyle. During the past month I’ve adopted the high carb raw vegan approach, and have lost around 24lbs in the last 30 days. The weight is just falling off me now, my energy level is sky-high, I feel better than I have in years, and my general happiness has increased substantially. I feel like I’ve stepped out of a fog and I can’t believe I was living the way I had been living! I also feel so much better that I am not eating meat and dairy, exploiting animals or living off a system of violence. I am very new to this lifestyle and I’m still trying to learn more so I can become a better and healthier person. I also want to share the gift of this lifestyle with others, because in just a short period of time I feel like this has already really changed my life. People need to know about this – if it can make me feel this good, if it can lift my fog, then it can also change others too.
