It might just be a detox you are going through and when it has run its
course you will start putting on weight again. The problem is that you
really have no way of knowing and rather than risking running into
nutritional deficiences of some kind if I were you, I would play it
safe and put some more proteins and fats back into my diet and maybe
some cooked foods as well. Your body might even detox better with more
of these foods in your diet. Best of luck and let us know how it goes!

Welcome to the list!

Best, Peter
