Hello everyone :)
I've been a lurker on this list now for about a month now.
Here's a little introduction: I am 33 yrs old. I have been a
vegetarian for about 2 years and a vegan for about 8 months.
Recently I have been very interested in eating more raw foods. I was
very influenced by Bodhi's post of Dr. Maulkmus's essay. Thanks
Bodhi :) I also enjoy the posts by some of the other people here as
well.
This is what my diet has mainly been for the last 2 weeks:
breakfast: a tablespoon (or more) of Green Magma or Kyo-Green
(barley powder) then in mid morning I "snack" on a grapefruit and
sometimes a banana also.
lunch: Green Magma then a big bowl of assorted organic vegetables
(no dressing)
afternoon snack: fruit, raisins or mixed nuts and raisins.
dinner: after the Green magma, I might have a hummus filled pita with bean
sprouts or some cereal with soy beverage or something else.
I also drink freshly made vegetable juice.
I seem to be doing good eating like this except that I have lost 6
pounds....I do not really think that I need to lose weight as I am
now 137 lbs and am 5'8" tall. When I was eating a lot of pasta, rice
other cooked food etc, I had been staying pretty steady at 143 lbs. I'm
worried about losing more weight so I am going to eat more nuts and maybe
snack more.
If anyone has any suggestions I'll be happy to listen ..... [although
I'm a health food vegan (as opposed to ethical) I'm not into RAF] Incidentally,
I had thought that this was a veggie raw food list when I first joined
(Veg-raw). At first I did not know what RAF meant! After some very
intense confusion....I eventually figured it out...

P.S. I am seriously thinking about trying a juice fast.
