New w/questions

I am new and wondering:

-How many green smoothies do I need to have each day? How many cups of greens should I aim for in a given day?

-Should I devise a meal plan to make sure I am eating enough OR just eat only when hungry?

-If I want to lose weight, what things should I pay careful attention to?

-Will eating raw help with keeping my blood glucose levels normal?

Thanks in advance to everyone who takes time to respond.

Winona…I have been doing fine during the day BUT at night, I want a cooked meal. I am thinking of having a mono-meal as my before bedtime item. Is there any issue with having fruit before bed?

I am finding that I am NOT hungry enough to consume huge amounts of fruit/veg. Should I force myself to eat even if I am NOT hungry. I know it’s a bad idea BUT I know I am NOT getting enough calories.

I want to lose weight at a healthy and steady rate BUT I wanna make sure I am eating enough food and getting vitamins/nutrients.

Angie-I am interested in bringing my blood glucose levels down/steady. I wanna prevent having to use diabetes meds in the future. I also wanna go off of my blood pressure medication in the next 2 months. I feel like going raw, even if NOT 100%, will help me do so.

Thanks to the both of you for responding.
