i cant stop eating??? please help!

[zozodarko]

I am a 20 year old female. I have been vegan for a year and I decided to go raw for a while. I started off with The Master Cleanse and I eased my way into a raw food diet. This is my second week and I am doing really good. At the moment i am eating 90% raw. But I have a big problem. I cant stop eating.:( Of course the food I am eating is raw but I just cant stop eating. If you have any recommendations or advice I would greatly appreciate it. Did you experience this?
p.s. I actually just weighed myself today and I have gained 6lbs since I started my raw food diet. :eek:please help I really want to lose weight. I work in the movie industry and their is so much pressure to be a certain size. :confused:
Thanks, ruthie

In the beginning I ate a whole lot. Maybe right now, its not how much, but what you're eating. Guess you need to look at the emotional issue as well?

When I first started I was hungry all the time. So as long as it was raw I just ate until I was satisfied. It might be a good idea to stay off the scale for a while so you won't be discouraged. I could tell when things are working when I observed how my clothes fit.

This too shall pass.

i thinks its a matter of perspective...you need to avoid the temptations...or rather divert your attention on other matter...exercise self-control...okay?


good luck!
