Losing weight

[Guest guest]

I want to lose a lot of weight. I have read eating avacados really

speeds up weight loss. Does anyone have experience with going raw

for weight loss and suggestions. Thanks

I don't know if you should go into it just for losing weight. I

mean that would mean once you lose the weight your gonna go back and

start eating the same crap before?!

 

If you go into it...you should do it not for losing weight..but for

your health for the rest of your life and also to feel good about

yourself. I mean when I started 'diet's' I did it to lose

weight..ATkins and on and on...but I decided to go raw not to lose

weight...but because this was teh best way for me to be healthy and

remain that way. Not only that..but also political, moral, and

social reasons. All in all the weight took a major back seat.

 

But since you want to know about losing weight...you do and I have

lost quiet a lot since I've been on it. Not only that my health was

amazing, my edema went down, and my eczema disappeared. And my

skin just was moist.

 

I'm not sure about avocadoes..it has a high fat content. I do

believe in eating a variety of fruits and vegetables together.

Like avocadoes added to a spinach, tomatoe, and bell pepper salad.

Or even avocado in a fruit salad, but I make it a point not to eat

much of it.

 

I do believe you should try juicing and that's good for fasting and

maybe getting into a cleanse. I have the Arise and Shine..pricey

but I have all my supplements and regime to follow. Not to mention

a juice fast will be added to take once a month to cleanse all the

toxins that may still be left over!

 

Take out some books maybe works by Steve Meyerowitz..and nice small

cookbook on raw cooking,nothing expensive or check out

www.livingfoods.com , for recipes. And think about why your

really doing it. Mentally applying yourself to the reasons...will

make you follow through and maintain even after you lose the

weight. I did 4 months of research not to mention that I also

tested out what foods made me sick and what was causing all the

patterns. All of it lead to this road that I plan on walking.

 

This is far from fad, or a diet. This is just health and vitality!

 

Sincerely,

VB

Thank you for you thoughts, Verberella. I have been studying and

learning about raw for a long time. I agree it needs to be a lifestyle

and one which I want. My food addiction is so strong that I have had

terrible time getting total commitment which is my weakness. I have read

several books. (Botenko esp.) and even spent time in Boston with Ann

Wigmore before she died.

 

In Victoria's book, " 12 Steps to Raw " She said that the lipase in

avocados helps break down body fat. She said the more she ate the more

weight she lost. I was looking for someone else that might had this

experience because I am aware, as you, of their high fat content.

 

 

Thank you for taking time to respond to me. I am always encouraged by

other's stories. Please feel free to share any other experiences.
