I think I had mentioned a few months ago I was accepted at one of the two firefighter schools I applied to and was a bit concerned how I'd have time to eat raw. It turns out it's making me eat even more raw than before (I hang around 75% raw), what I do is I make a huge double (5 cup) smoothie of about 2000 calories (I eat at least 3000 a day) in my blendtec when I wake up and pour half in a glass for breakfast and the other half in a thermos that keeps it ice cold (from the frozen fruits) until lunch time.
So in less than 5 minutes I have both my breakfast and lunch ready which is amazing. There's just one person in my class that's telling me it's not enough for a lunch and shows me his white refined bread sandwich with a lettuce leaf, meat and cheese and says "see, I have my grains, vegetables, meat and dairy, all in one! now that's healthy!". But I don't think he realizes all I put in my smoothie (or how unhealthy refined bread, meat and dairy is), I think he thinks it's just fruits, but I do put carrots and walnuts and coconut oil to make it a complete meal.
