I've decided to go raw and I'm eating raw now for three weeks but I don't know what to eat and when to eat it. I just eat fruit for breakfast a green salad at lunch and fruit in the evening. This is very monotonous. Does anybody has any ideas as how I should go about raw food eating? Thanks for you answer in advance.

Louise.

Eating raw has it's challenges in the beginning. Blending fruit and greens can give you some variety.
The more you eat this way the more you will love the fruit and your body should start to guide you, at least that's what I've found.
Also, look at the recipe section and see if anything appeals to you. There are tons of recipes.
Today I will try ripe papya slices drizzeled with orange/avacado dressing.
I like to keep it simple.

I know how you feel...I am in second week and already wracking my brains, even though I've all the gadgets and tons of recipes. In ANY diet or way or eating, even SAD, you run into that type of boredom. That's why restaurants and junk food make sooo much money.

I am trying to break my 'live to eat' food addiction and 'eat to live'. I've noticed that the gourmet recipes tend to bind one up/slow weight loss.

Like any addiction (which I fully admit to being a food addict), it is one day at a time. I have, luckily, not cheated with cooked since starting (albeit, I've inadvertantly had some items I THOUGHT were raw and weren't...but I haven't gone hog wild and eaten risotto or a pile of cheeseburgers).

Good Luck to you. Keep on course and eat boring. I am trying to embrace the mono meals. I haven't even been successful with proper food combining yet, though!

Dear Louise06-it is way more complicated than i thought too. i am also a food addict. i love comfort foods. i am having to rethink my ways cause of health issues.well-u maybe need to go easier on yourself. people are still transitioning after several yrs. so if u just went raw and u slip-it may not be a slip but just the transition time. i went full raw and it ended up being too hard for me...so now i eat as much raw as i can and if i eat something cooked but very healthy-i do not sweat it.take care and hope all is well your way.hugs taylor
