• I believe I've seen him post some information pertaining to its toxicity before. Nearly every aspect of health/nutrition is debatable and you can nearly always find something that supports your point of view. And people often put forth their beliefs…

• I'm not entirely sure that's an approved scientific test for determining healthy consumption there. ;) To be fair, I wouldn't want banana, lettuce, or watermelon in my eyes either.

• Eh, that's about what I figured. Thanks for the comments guys.

• Do you get any exercise other than walking? Walking everywhere is great, and seems to be enough for many people to lose weight. But some of us require a good bit more; you might try adding jogging, cycling, interval training, etc. in for a few weeks…

• Any change in exercise regimen? Maybe gained some muscle after first losing weight? On healthy diets I'd actually recommend more calories(for more energy/more exercise) as a more effective(and safer) method of losing weight, but I'm no expert and th…

• Can't speak for any particular recipes but I imagine lowering the amount of oil(or completely) would probably still make it come out okay and might remove the problem. I wouldn't use high oil recipes myself, but that's just me.

• Evolutionary debates aside, I think any real research into fruit provides pretty convincing data. While the amount of sugar consumed may be on the rise in the US and other places, the amount of actual fruit consumed is down; we just shovel down arti…

• I'd recommend vegetables, sunlight, and exercise over dairy.

• I believe his main reasoning is that too much fat in the blood impedes the movement of sugar out of the bloodstream.

• You could bring some chia seeds and throw them in a bottle of water when you get hungry. Not sure how appealing that sounds for breakfast, but it is sustaining. Possibly some dehydrated fruit to go with it. Personally I'm used to just not eating at …

• I've tried spinach, pak choi, and lettuce, and much prefer lettuce over the other two; and the same goes for eating them on their own(which makes sense). I've never like cucumber, but haven't tried it in a green smoothie, might have to though and se…

• I'd agree with eating before and or getting a salad, juice, smoothie, side of vegetables, etc. as bringing your own kind of seems rude. It shouldn't be, and if you're comfortable with it go for it, but typical societal norms tell us not to I think. …

• I've gotten something similar, or perhaps the exact opposite. I recently started 30 days of 100% raw, and when people ask me what I eat and I tell them fruits and vegetables I get 'That doesn't sound very healthy.' I know there's a lot of controvers…

• I'm doing fine thus far(no different, but I'm only on day six), though I did break 100% raw. I was having some trouble meeting my caloric/nutrient requirements, and spending more than I estimated, so I bought some juice and frozen vegetables. Though…

• Any other tips on cheap, filling(or calorie dense) fruits? I think dates might be affordable down here; and buying juice should be cost effective as well.

• I'm not religious myself, but I do tend to like like Wicca, Druidism, etc. more than the Abrahamic religions. Could be biased though, it isn't easy being a non-Christian in the Bible Belt.

• I'd like to have a Vitamix, but for $20 I've had my blender over a year and it's still going. Might not be as tough as the top brands(it can't handle ice), but I get by with it just fine.

• I imagine most people would say that's a little low on calories. Didn't plug anything in, but guesstimating in my head it looks like it's under a thousand. But I say as long as you don't skip dinner and you feel fine, you're probably good.

• Yesterday was my first day 100% raw, and I fell a bit short nutritionally. I think making more smoothies will help me get my calories in. Didn't keep exact measurements, but good enough for a fair assessment. 7 bananas 3 peaches some chia seeds A pa…

• If you're worried about getting all the nutrients you need, I'd definitely recommend plugging everything you eat into an online(or offline) tracker such as FitDay, NutritionData, etc. It will calculate how much you need and your totals for the day(o…

• I eat lfrv most of the time, but still have crap foods such as Taco Bell and other junk in my diet. When I can manage to go 30+ days 100% I might try to document any colour change, but considering I don't eat mostly SAD, I don't think it would make …

• Many recommend getting at least 3,000 calories a day, more if your active and your body needs them. Getting enough calories seems more common of a problem than not enough. Most vitamins and minerals are abundant eating raw. But you can't really tell…
