30 Bananas a Day!

I don't know what's wrong with me, but I KEEP diverging from HCRV.

I mean, I have tried soooooo many other ways of eating, NOTHING feels like this. But then for some reason I cannot stay 100% HCRV. I think maybe it's the fear of weight gain that makes me eat less and I get hungry. Or it's because after a few days I really crave something salty and not sweet.

I understand all the other benefits of this lifestyle, but I have to confess, weight loss is a big motivation for me. I was normally 111-112 lbs (small frame, 5' 3") till last March, when I got a roommate. He is my brother, which means we share foods. And he eats raw. BUT he eats tooo much fat. We always have all kinds of nuts, nut butters, avocados, salt, and lots of raw gourmet food and snacks at home. Which I love, and I do gain weight when I eat them.
Now I'm almost 123 lbs and I can't lose the weight no matter what. . I'm ashamed to say that recently I tried a high protein non-vegan diet, and I felt like CRAP.

Never again.
Starting tomorrow, Tuesday, I am going to eat fruits and veggies ONLY. And No overts. And I'm going to log it here everyday. I want to write what exactly make me cheat, tho I wish it never happens again.

Wish me luck!

Karen, you had a past of restricting calories. That's why you gained. I had it too, so I gained but after two months everything goes down :) Just relax, everything is going as planned

I remember one time in the evening I felt a little upset so I said f*** it, It's 10 pm but I'll eat some nuts, I want them and through the night my body will deal with it. So I woke up good, everything's fine but then I had fruit during the day and my stomach just wouldn't work. I felt gas, I felt bloated, horrible... And I had to go to friends birthday party that day. So I was bloated and felt insecure.. Little did I knew, nuts tend to be kept in your system for 12 hours. 12 HOURS! That's insane and good thing I got to know this because it was causing all of my problems. Now I don't eat nuts and I finally feel that I loose weight! That's amazing!  Never felt better :) And no more bloatiness :)
