I've been raw for a few months now and while I have a blog www.fruitfullyfit.blogspot.com, I have also decided that its time to create a blog on 30 Bananas a Day, to share with you my progess, recipes and daily fun!

am - noontime: 1 whole watermelon (biiig watermelon)

pm (@ 6:30): 4 banana smoothie with 4 cups spring mix greens

exercise: tracy anderson dance workout -- i did 4 whole dances today! phew! my stamina is increasing! the other day i had to stop after 3! then i did some of her mat routine--killer! did the first part of legs and first part of abs and first part of arms. feel reallly good! 

didn't get much sleeep though last night--only about 7 hours. stayed up late…

I've been off of 100% raw and onto the Raw Til 4 program for a little while now. Cooking is giving me a little bit of emotional satisfaction and less anxiety because I have driven myself crazy trying to stay raw when fruit is just not satisfying me.

The thing is that, the more calories I find that I require, I've found I just can't take it anymore. Worst of all, I don't think I can stand another banana ever again. I have to eat so much, and I don't enjoy it. I become numb to…

So, this is my first blog of my life-never really had use for them, but I think it will help me in the long run if I am to succeed on this lifestyle. I have been vegan for about a year and a half now and have had amazing benefits. There are still a lot of things I need to improve about myself though and I am hoping raw foods will help. I have been about 80% raw (cooked potatoes and veggies. And my darn weakness to popcorn. I know, random) and I know I can go 100% if I tried.

I…

In Denmark its often not possible to get riped mangoes. 

So yesterday I bought mangojuice at the local Thai store.

I made the best smoothie with mangojuice, frosen bananas and vanilla. Hello!

80/10/10 food tastes so good it sometimes feel sinful to indulge in so much food. 

I thoght I would miss icecream going low fat vegan but now I have it for breakfast, lunch and dinner if I feel like it.

Why did nobody tell me about this diet 40 years…

am: 1/2 large watermelon

midday: 4 mangoes, 3 bananas

late pm (@ 6:30): 2 mangoes

night (@11): 1/2 watermelon, 1 banana

exercise: poppin tags at the thrift shop

Hope everyone has had a lovely week :)

I wrote this song today and thought I'd share. I don't have a piano/keyboard at the moment, or any proper singers on hand sadly, so just me singing! ;) I've put the lyrics below.

(My webcam is not very good so you have to turn the volume right up to hear, sorry! And it also goes out of sync, but nevermind!! :D )

I know you can be overweight Being a vegetarian because of all the cheese eggs Milk You basically can eat anything out their that is crap besides meat, So You Can be eating your fries, your white Bread your sugary cereals But their is a difference between that and raw vegan and just eating fruits and veggies, those food are practically Your only source of vitamins and minerals amino acids just everything, So can someone really be stuck at being overweight being RAW VEGAN, because i don't…

I just had a big watermelon lunch and it is affecting me like drugs, I’m experiencing such a rush o f energy right now!  I just spent 10 minutes doing bicycle crunches, arm circles, and front jabs.  Go fruit yourself!

I know what I described is not a lot of exercise, but I'm healing both a broken wrist and a broken foot right now so it takes a lot more energy to do a small amount of activity.  I still feel amazing!

This has been such a journey and a wake up! Since I started on the Raw back in November I've went through many stages of acceptance and denial of what this lifestyle is capable of.  My brain has been clear, and it's been cloudy. My thoughts have stayed pure and the dream remains.

I use excuses to continue the numb down with cooked food.  Staying vegan has not been an issue but staying away from the cooked food has been a roller coaster.  (excuses) My personal life with my split…

am: 2 banana smoothies (@15 bananas total), frozen blueberries (@ 3 cups total)

pm: another banana smoothie (@ 6 bananas) and 8 small white peaches (yuuuummm!!!)

later pm (around 5:45): spinach salad with few slices pineapple, 1 orange, 1/4 avocado and tiny bit of cashew dressing

water: uhhh maybe 1-2 liters? not sure..water is kinda hard to track, but i'm always peeing a lot and it's clear so i think that means i'm getting enough

sleep: 8 hours i…

I love my job! Today I got to lay out on the grass with a 4 year old little boy who is too sick to go home and lives in a nursing home he needs a ventilator most of the day to breath and is fed through a tube. He has probably felt grass a handful of times in his life and felt the sun and breeze on his skin a few times too.  Even though he cannot talk and lacks the muscle to smile I knew how happy he was!  I am so grateful for my own health and hope everyone with a healthy child never takes…

I was beyond pleased to see that I have another pair of dress pants that I can give away because they are now too big.  The scale still wobbles back and forth, distorting my perception or my accomplishments, but I know better than to listen to it.  I may only weigh 8 pounds less than I did 23 days ago, but it's obvious that some of the fat as turned to muscle.  I have been taking photos every few days, and though I'm not willing to post them here, at least not yet, I am happy to say that the…

More of a personal blog!

I just wanted to document the changes that have happened since eating more raw foods. I used to always get cramps several days before coming on, but now I only get them 30 mins before my first bleed! I do still feel crappy when I have just started, but not near as much as I did when I was eating meat. I also have WAY more energy today than I normally do. Last month, as I was on holiday in Spain whilst I was on, I pretty much ate beans or cooked veggies with…
