Date: July 02, 2006 02:12AM Hello All. I have a question regarding the weight loss that is supposed to occur once you start eating raw. I have been eating raw pretty consitently at 90% with a couple breaks for a few months and i still havn't lost weight. I don't know what i might be doing to hold on to it. Otherwise my whole body feels so much more energized and happy but i feel heavy still in terms of weight. Any suggestions? Re: Weight loss

Date: July 02, 2006 07:35AM how much water are you drinking? that will make a difference. Drinking more water helps flush toxins and things that are held within fat cells out of the body. Re: Weight loss

Our bodies have a set weight that it tries very hard to maintain, but it will begin to allow weightloss if you are consistent with the rawfood diet and water drinking, causing toxins to leave (fat is a store of toxins) Re: Weight loss

Date: September 06, 2006 07:43AM How much fat are you taking in from nuts and seeds? Eventhough its good fat its still fat and you will need to limit your consumption! Are you exercising and when you eat cooked what kinds of foods are they? All of these issues can affect the outcome of your weight loss. When trying to lose weight the focus should be lots of water and lots of greens with limited amounts of fruit(sugar..eventhough it is fructose its still sugar!), and limited amounts of nuts and seeds (fats).
