Starving??

thegymbum19

When I first started the raw food life I wasnt craving food really. I ate only when I was hungry etc. But now I am hungry almost all the time. Why is this? I know protein, fiber and fat make you feel fuller but I am also looking to lose some weight too, so I don’t want to devour almonds (because of the fat content). Does anyone else experience this? Any suggestions would be great! Thanks! xo

thegymbum19 – if you’re still reading this thread, and have not run away (!), you are absolutely stunning; in perfect physical shape & just glowing with health. I hope you keep eating the living foods that are making you look so alive in your photo, and as much as your body wants of them!

Your body is most likely asking you, through hunger, for what it needs to keep you in such a wonderful state of health. Listen to what your body is asking for, and eat, eat, eat it :-) At some point, most likely, your body will not want to eat so much, and all you have to do is listen out for it without trying to control it.

I did stop reading the posts but I will say it took ALOT of reading bulletin posts to understand the process has a lot of ups and downs. You really have to be less demanding of yourself and less expectant and have to listen to what your body is telling you. Don’t forget to drink LOTS of water and sometimes cocnut water helps because it has electrolytes. Keep it up!
I think the newbie FAQ thing is a good idea!
