Not quite rv :-s

Yesterday I decided to have a thali at The Taste of Lewisham. They're only available until 5pm, so it was a daytime meal. I haven't been treating diet with strict discipline, and I don't intend to, so I didn't argue with myself about it: I fancied it so I had it. The spices got some stuff moving in my chest and I coughed up some matter as I cycled home, and this may have done me some good. The main effect of the meal, however, was a feeling of heaviness and a lack of enthusiasm for anything for…See More

We suggest you pick a name other than your own if you want to maintain anonymity.: After a couple of weeks raw eating I felt my guessing and experimenting wasn't optimal. I soon found Durian Rider's youtube vid on beginners tending to eat too much fat, cut out the oily foods and bounced back. This fruity stuff makes sense to my mind and my mouth and my GI tract seems happy too. I've more energy than I've had for ages, so I thought I'd join up, share my experiences and soak up the wisdom :)

811rv .. again

Posted on September 21, 2012 at 3:28am 4 Comments 1 Like

Just had around 2.5 weeks of having cooked evening meals. Low fat vegetable soups with plenty of roots. I'm really seeing the difference, now, between this and full 811rv. I wanted to go raw again about a week ago but I didn't have enough ripe bananas :( It's the old problem of needing to wait 5 - 6 days for them to ripen. Now my banana collection can sustain me and I'm glad to be back online.

The reason I went to cooked meals this time was a week-long tummy ache. I'm still not…

811rv - Take 2

Posted on June 29, 2012 at 6:40am 0 Comments 0 Likes

After 3 and a half weeks 811-ish with 1 cooked meal a day, I'm back with the 100% raw.

This isn't a case of feeling like I should eat raw again, it's more that eating a kilo of potatoes was getting a bit laborious, even in a nice tomato based soup. It's so much easier to eat a kilo of bananas! The transition back to raw felt completely natural.

I've had 3 days raw food now and my energy is back up and I'm feeling great - hopefully this will stay a bit longer this…

End of raw vegan diet ... for now

After nearly three weeks of high energy good feeling fruitarianism I began to feel drained and weak. I was eating plenty - greater than 5000 kcals most days. My belly hurt after each meal. My water intake was around 2 - 3 litres a day. Sleep? I was getting a good amount of time in bed although getting up 2 or 3 times a night to pee was a little annoying and I wonder if this was contributing to tiredness? My running back from the coffee shop each day became easier and my time for this…
