Rose, I am also losing tons of weight on raw, although I am not 100% raw. I have also found that I will not be hungry for days and then suddenly I will be hungry. I still have tons of weight to lose too. I am still trying to get away from the mindset that I have to eat 3 meals a day. I will read Quantum eating also.

Mrs. Reed I think you hit it on the head. Maybe in my mind I am translating the compliments into what people actually thought about how I looked before. I guess to hear the compliment is to validate how bad I felt about myself... Anyway Thanks I am feeling a little better now..that was one of my moments. I seem to have them quite frequently now. I have started to keep a journal and it is hel

I have a crazy confession and this is the only place that I can verbalize it.... I started at 300 lbs and everyone I guess assumed I was the fat, jolly, happy one. I lost 60lbs without anyone noticing cause I continued to wear big clothes. One day I put on new clothes and went to work and I am not not kidding over 20 people said wow you lost so much weight! Most was positive, some was negative.

This is what I am going through now. I have lost 50 lbs in two months eating a 60% raw diet and people are telling me that I am also losing muscles. That even though I was very big that is too much weight to lose that quickly. I no longer have the ferocious appetite and I just dont have the appetite like I used to. Although I cant feel the full effects of my new lifesyle because I am taking 2 b

I am feeling a little better each day. I really like this site because the people are so supportive. I figured out it is the medications that are making me so ill. I already mentioned that I started eating 50%-60% raw food 2 months ago. AT that time I weighed around 300 lbs and was admitted to the hospital with a BP of 210/100 and that was my blood pressure on medicines. In that 2 months I ha

Thanks Sundancer, Well I was on a high blood pressure medication that caused some weight gain and increased appetite. My medications were changed around. That was one of my main reasons for changinf my lifestyle was to get off all meds. You see I did a miraculous turn around. My diet consisted of junk 24 hours, 7 days a week. I overnight went to 50-75% raw . I will say it was rough, I feel good

I have lost 60 lbs in 2 months doing 50% raw. I started at 295 lbs. For some reason my co-workers just started to notice. WHy are they being so negative and judgemental?

Thanks Lee, can you guide me to some good sites about meditation? I just had one of those attacks that lasted 2 minutes. My arm and leg muscles started burning and hurting and I had back pain. It makes me so nervous even though I have had a full cardiac workup including a cardiac cath, but it is still nerve wracking. The medication must be stored in the fat I am loosing and in my muscles? Does

Bryan, thanks for the explanation.... No I want this to be over as soon as possible. I am ok handling these detox symptoms knowing it is helping me. I am committed to eating healthier. At least I am comforted to know that my body is working like it is supposed to. I drink distilled water. I read somewhere this is bad. Is that true? I also take prima cleanse with benzonite clay. I will admit th

Hi all, I have a long story so here goes... I have always since a little girl been overweight and toxic. I ballooned up to 300 lbs. You see my diet consisted of fried potatoes in the morning and bacon, lunch french fries and fried meat, dinner starches and meat. I also developed high blood pressure and insulin resistance during these years. I am 41 years old. The medication they gave me to take
