Questions on how to begin???(peter)

November 9, 2003

Hi Peter, I read your previous thoughts and although I'm new, I'm

open to suggestions concerning meal planning. I recently started

weight training(3 days per week) and cardio five days per week. So I

need to make sure I'm getting adequate protein on a daily basis and I

eat every 3 hours. Can you give me an idea of what you eat for a

typical day, or can you offer suggestions for me? Thanks Lili

Lilli, Do not worry about protein.

What your body looks for is carbohydrate and it gets too much of that

anyway by the sound of things. Protein deficiency is extremely rare and

there is plenty in Fruit and vegetables. A course of juice fasting will

give you more than you are getting in a great plate loads of grain.

Try a two day juice fast and see if you feel better. Then wait a week

or two and try a longer one.

What I eat would not be appropriate for you at this stage. You simply

would not eat it.

You may need to tip out rather than load up.

Peter, this is a bit graphic and gross, I forgot to mention earlier

that I ate 1 scrambled egg, 2 stips of bacon, and 1 slices of toast

for breakfast at 6am yesterday, and the rest of the day I ate only

raw vegetables and fruit and 1 gallon of tap water. I noticed that I

passed my bowels twice yesterday and have been blowing my nose since

yesterday. I always blow my nose because I'm so congested, but it's

usually difficult for the mucus to pass through. I didn't have this

morning or yesterday. I also usually only pass my bowels once per day

after my heaviest meal. Is it possible that my body could be trying

to clean itself already despite the fact my diet was better but far

from perfect? My neck feels a little cramped today also for some

reason.rawfood , " Peter Gardiner "

Hi Lili,

The protein myth is one of those things that we are

programmed to think throughout our lives, but is not

at all conected to reality. I discovered that I

recovered much quicker from workouts eating greens

then I did eating animal protein. Eat sweet fruit for

energy, and leafy greens to grow muscle. It's

difficult to eat enough greens. I bought a green

star " mastricating " juicer and juice a lot of leafy

greens each day. The greener the better. Kale,

spinich, dandylion(sp) collards ect. They tast good

eaten whole, but drinking them takes some getting used

to.

If you feel tired from exercise, you need rest, not

protein. You will feel that your muscles are not sore

for long.

As far as diet goes. I eat fruit for breakfast,

greens for lunch, and greens and fats for dinner

(avacado, cold pressed flax seed oil). I eat fruit

for snacks in between meals. If your just starting

out, it might be a good idea to carry a large bag of

apples around with you. When you get food cravings,

eat as many apples as possible. They will subside

when your stuffed with apples. Its not easy to detox,

but for me, the faster the better. You will not die

from it, but it might make you feel uncomfortable.

Don't worry about over eating in the beginning. Eat

all the time. Slowely, you will be able to eat less.

Hope this helps.

In that case start with a meal or two of juicing rather than a day or

two of juicing.

When you get off the whet your nose or mucous problem will subside.

Tomorrow get a bag of apples and eat them all for breakfast.

I bet you have never even tried that for breakfast?
