Tring to make the adjustment again

I used to be a raw vegan but fell off track due to some personal issues (divorce, new job, etc..) and unfortunately my health has suffered. I recently went to the doctor and I was horrified to learn that my triglycerides are very high and that I have gained weight. I am also having trouble with acne which is something I never had problems with before. I want to be healthy again and 30 pounds lighter!

Today I decided to go back to being a raw vegan! I was my healthiest when I was eating that way and felt good about myself. I've stocked up on plenty of fresh fruits, greens, and veggies and have hemp seed and some nuts. However, my 1 weakness is frozen pizza and stuffed jalapeno peppers. I used to eat a lot of frozen dinners and it is going to be hard to get out of that habit, especially the days when I work late. Any tips on how to avoid this kind of junk food and just overall slipping into my old eating habits?

    Green smoothies and lots and lots of fruit. It will help you to lose the craving for salt, which I guess there is alot of in frozen dinners. Don't get hungry or you will slip. Lots of people on this site eat a ton of bananas - they help alot. Good luck!
