I have been struggling to get enough calories without a lot fats...
seems like sprouting chickpeas, mung beans, lentils...may do it!

any thoughts,

would it be good in incorporate a cup of each everyday?

Eddie,

Try it and see how you do. I would caution you to start with smaller amounts of these sprouted, and see how you tolerate them, before eating a few cups a day. Also, are you eating enough fruits and nuts? Good luck!

I simply can't eat any sprouts at all but i get loads of calories from fruit - particularly bananas at this time of year.

thanks for the reply, today ( by 4:00pm ) i had

3 banana's
handful of kale
handful parsley, and cilantro
1 leaf swiss chard
1 tbs grounded flax seed
1 tbs hemp protien
1 tbs sesame seed
1 apple
1 pear
handful of each of these ( strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, blackberries )
1 orange
1 kiwi
1 cup sprouted chickpeas
1 cup sprouted mung beans
1 cup sprouted alfalfa
1 avocado
2 sticks of celery
1/4 onion
2 cloves garlic
4 litres water

Right now i am at 2124 calories and it's 4:00pm. I am 136 lbs, and 5'11.
I have a very high metabolism. I am guessing i need well over 3000 a day.
I felt soooo bad yesterday and fatigued. Today i am doing much better with eating
what is listed above,


then i will eat some pumpkin seed butter and a few cashews tonight,
and a big salad for dinner.

Im not trying to be a calorie watcher type, that freaks out if i dont get the
exact number...i have just been losing to much weight and feeling tired, so i
am trying things out...i wanna keep the raw thing going, im trying my best so far.

I've never counted a calorie since going raw. I just eat what I feel like each day and never seem to have a problem.

On my website (www.rawforlife.co.uk), on the 'What is the Raw Food Diet?' page, I list at the bottom a typical day's food for me. That might help, Eddie, if you adjust for your size (I'm 108 lbs).

I follow a high-fruit raw diet, which does include raw sprouted grains and pulses.

wow eddie

what a beautiful menu u got there

cheerz!
