Hi Everybody,
This is my first post...I"ve been curious about the raw food diet for about a year & I think I'm finally at a point where I"m ready to try it.I'm a little bit overweight-around 15lbs.I gained it over the past couple of years mostly through late night bingeing & Paxil. I"ve been off the paxil for 5 months,& have changed my eating habits.I"ve tried low carb diets like the FatFlush Plan but with minimal success.
I guess what I"m wondering is how you can lose weight on the raw food diet when it seems to be extremely high in fat & calories? Even though it's good fat,it's still fat.I have no worries that I won't like eating this way;the few recipes I've tried tasted amazing-my fear is that it will pile the pounds on me.Has anyone lost a sizable amount of weight on this diet?
Thanks,
Patricia
