Right now I am on an all organic, raw, seasonal vegan "live food box" meal plan from a local raw vegan health restaurant and store. Some of the food is raw gourmet, but I would say there is minimal dehydration, sea salt, oil, and high sugar fruit. I wonder if my meals are as healthy for me as I want to believe. I don't always know exactly what is in everything that I am eating, but I do know that most of the lunch, dessert and dinner foods contain a lot of nuts and seeds. I fear that I am eating too much fat and protein. What do you all eat? Does this typical meal plan look healthy to you?:
Breakfast- Apple or orange with 1tbsp flax seed/hemp seed/cacao nibs or veggie flax crackers
Lunch- kelp noodles/dehydrated veggies with some sort of cashew-almond-yeast sauce or big leafy greens salad or nut and seed meal imitation meat with a side salad (collard green, kale, chard).
Dinner- Similar to lunch. Often times a "burrito" or big "spring roll" with tons of nuts, seed cheese, veggies and rice wrap or cabbage leaf wrap. Sometimes "rice" made from ground broccoli and cauliflower florets and herbs and spices.
Dessert- (4x's per wk.) small nut, seed, cacao/carob/cinnamon/ vanilla bean, coconut brownies/cheesecakes/truffles
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Is this too much food to be eating? For the record, I am 5'0 and was 80lbs (prior to raw). I have gained 2lbs in the 2 weeks I have been on this raw meal plan. I feel like I could really use some guidance. Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks!
