"Yeah stay away from that fat. 10% is a maximum. Just eat plenty of greens and you will get all the fat you need.  If you desire fat, for some reason, stick to fatty fruits- avocados, durian, etc - nuts and seeds are hard to handle. Nuts, if you…"

"This was so helpful.  Pretty sure I keep losing weight, doesn't matter to me anyway.  Decided to throw out my scale and just focus on being a healthy person.  Weight will follow, it always does.  "

"If there is a 'trigger food' that you are aware of for you, DON'T buy it! I agree with the covert fat comment. You will be fine with such 'fattier' veggies in the diet. Do have a bit more at least once a week though. The…"

Teri L replied to Natt Smith's discussion I'm so Scared of Fat
"You can get plenty of fat in your diet without any overt fats added. For example, zucchinis are 16% fat, and romaine lettuce is 15% fat.  Remember, 10% is a maximum for fat. No need to be scared of fat though! As long as you keep it to below…"

Our community would be delighted to know you better. Please tell us more about yourself and what brought you to 30BaD.

Hey 30BaD Community,

My name is Natt and I am American currently teaching English in South Korea. I have eaten the typical SAD diet my entire life. I grew up on hot dogs and doritos and if I ate a vegetable it was dipped in ranch dressing. I peaked in weight at 210lbs (95kg) when I was only 14 years of age. Since then I have yo-yo dieted and tried every quick fix out there. About 9 months ago I went vegetarian, and 6 months ago I went vegan and the changes I have noticed in my body have been innumerable. I am regular every day, weight dropped off, I eat pretty much whatever I want (in the form of fruit and veg) and never gain a pound. I live an active lifestyle but am not quite sure where to go from here. Raw veganism has always interested me so when a friend directed me to 30 bananas a day at first I was like, what the hell? who can eat that much fruit? I want my body to be in the best condition it has ever been so there lie my reasons for converting to raw veganism.

p.s. I love eating kiwis much more than you do. I guarantee it.

Durianrider & Freelee started this site to bring together high carb, raw vegan lifestylists' across the Globe! 30bad is a high standard and high performance team! We're here to help you make our team! Let us know what HCRV assistance do you need?
I am trying to make peace with giving up hot foods. I've never gone a day without coffee and rolled oats have been my breakfast every day since before I can remember.

I have lost 74lbs and need to convert most of my fat into muscle. I am really interested in tightening up my skin.

I'm not looking for a quick fix. I'm looking for a way of life.

My 30 Day Challenge

Posted on July 8, 2012 at 11:30pm 3 Comments

I was so sad to have missed Freelee's 30 day vegan challenge by mere days so I am starting my own.

July 9th- Day 1

August8th- Day 30

 I feel so passionately about this way of life that the number 30 is almost unnecessary but life is a journey and this is my first step.  I'll use this post to share all my meal photos and exercise stats and I'd love any tips to improve upon my thriving regime.  

Peace, Love and Kiwis

Natt

Day…
