The good news-- 2218 cal.  The bad news-- 25% fat-- mostly from cookies.  I did really great with eating a nice big breakfast smoothie of bananas and dates (with the ribs from kale thrown in).  Ate more dates as snacks.  Enjoyed a super yummy green salad with the same tahini-agave dressing as yesterday.  Walked the dogs and came home wanting to eat everything in sight.  Instead of taking a moment to make another smoothie, I ate cookies.  Sigh.  Now another three or four days to get that…

just taking it easy on the bike now done all my training,off to portugal in 10 days for 6 days tour in the mountains,cant wait going to stock up on local fruit and stuff my face!!!  yay im so happy!!!

yesterday i ate many delicious things including a few huge banana smoothies, a giant amazing salad, and some quinoa/steamed vegetables for dinner. 

i felt "bad" for eating the cooked food, and then realized that feeling was super silly. compared with how i used  to eat, quinoa and steamed vegetebles are so healthy and i love where i am at with the amount of raw low fat high carb foods im eating. woo hoo! 

im not trying to force myself into anything here…

First salad since maybe 2 years, I lost count. But it was delicious! I hope to have this treat once a week now, while on other days still blending lettuce and greens into the banana smoothies :)

Not a very exciting recipe, but for people who are healing from IBD (and can have a little fat…

Since I start on my Low Fat Raw Diet, about 3 to 4 months ago I have been loosing weight. I am 1:63m and I weigh right now 50kg. So is there anyone on the same situation and trying to gain weight in a healthy way? Thank you...

I'm gonna do it!

For sure I can't keep up with the money, days where I am ravenous followed by days where I am soaring high, and all the shifts in awareness and huge shift in spirituality.  It would seem that when I am on fruit, its the only thing that matters. I have always been searching for the truth, well I found fruit and my experiences would have me believing that diet is the only thing that keeps humans miserable. This is as good as it gets, no doubt.  I think I would like to take this time off to get…

I am finding it really hard to eat enough fruit! Been doing fruit for about 2 and 1/2 weeks now.. 4 bananas is still my max, now they are starting to make me screw up my nose, as are the dates.. Today I did 10 dates blended with some cinnamon to cut the sweetness and that did help.. I can do a cantaloupe pretty easy, mangos ok, it's a little bit hard getting the variety here in Melbourne, plus we are in Autumn and it's starting to get colder.. Mangos will not be around much longer.. what to…

Another good day.  Calories: 1915, with 14.3% fat.  Weight holding around 160.  My scales disagree about my bodyfat, but it's somewhere in the 34-37% range.  That is actually good, because it means my lean mass is pretty much where I want it to be and I can hopefully lose just fat!  The lack of weight gain is promising, since I'm definitely eating about 500+ calories more than I used to.  Started craving cooked foods this evening after an hour in the garden, but I ate bananas instead and…

I'm so so so proud of myself! 

This morning I woke up at about 9 AM (it's Sunday, so having the entire day free!) after having slept a good 11 hours! It felt amazing and I just lay in bed really enjoying the feeling of being there, in my bed, not having to do anything in particular. Then I got up, poured water in a bottle and went back to bed, while sipping water. One liter of water later, I got up to make myself some breakfast. 

I bought some nice mangoes the…

Today was a decent day!  The only thing I didn't quite get right was the coffee, but I have a feeling coffee will get less interesting as time goes by.  Calorie intake 2153 with 14% fat (1/2 avocado.)

Spent four hours gardening-- mostly cleaning up from my last gardening session (I let the stuff dry before trying to collect it) and weeding the palm bed.  Lots more to do tomorrow.

Slept again without help.  Not long enough-- stayed up to 2:30 to chat with hubby, then got up at…
