Effects of eating raw, well semi-raw anyway
Who knew this stuff could actually work?!?
Date: 9/25/2005 10:53:15 PM ( 19 y ) ... viewed 2498 times Well after yo-yoing back and forth about what kind of diet to follow, low-protein low-carb, high-fat, only vegetables, juicing, etc etc, I finally just decided to eat food that would sustain me through the day and yet still be healthy.
I decided to do my own plan....it's a High-raw, low carb, blood type diet. Basically I eat 50-70% raw, the rest of the calories coming from proteins and very little grains. Every single food has to fit in with my blood type guidelines.
So far it hasn't been a hardship. Yes, it takes getting used to, expecially the yucky raw vegetables. But it isn't so bad when you're really hungry. I treat the normal cooked/protein food as my dessert, so it all works out in the end.
So I've been following this diet since my last post, which was 3 days back. I didn't really intentionally develop the diet, I just sort of fell into it after eating various stuff and seeing what works for me.
SO anyway, what effects have I seen so far? Drumroll ladies and gentlemen....
I lost 2.5 lbs in 3 days!!!!!!! Granted, it's not that great, but it gives me a boost of confidence.
I have to confess though, I've also been doing 1/2 hr pilates each day, which might have contributed to the loss.
I'm also doing 1/2 hr of naked dancing in front of the mirror (Yes, you read that right!) Maybe I'm weird, but I'm finding it really fun and sort of uplifting. Yeah, yeah, I'm eccentric. As far as excercise goes it's very very fun.
So yeah, my spirits are up, I feel great, and life is wonderful!
Eating Raw(ish) Rocks!
