801010 plunge

ok, so i am also ready to take the plunge on 801010. so when you say you have a handful of nuts, do you ever make mini nut milks? i really like hemp milk. i am also having a hard time finding nutrional information on hemp milk that is not homemade. so i'm going obviously just by the seeds nutrional data. there does seem to be a lot of fat in them. i do really enjoy them and when i try to add it to nutidairy, it's not existant. i guess my question is do any of you drink hemp or nut milk when you are practicing 801010?

i am noticing my body's disslike for to much nuts. and combining certain meals also makes me feel kinda icky. exception being a hemp milk smoothie.

currently i', 5'2 and weigh 105, and i eat over 2500 calories a day. (the big hike is the nuts and avocado)

i also do wish to maintain my figure. so should i go a little heavy on the banana's? or are there any other suggestions?

so far what i have read, and i almost hijacked jakkrabiits forum, is just eat fruit and veggies and a a handfull of nuts or half an avocado and it should all work out. is it really that easy? i feel like it's definatley doable. i'm practically there if not for my hemp milk. and the nut sauces that are tastey but also make me feel a little ill. so, what about buckwheat? i'm curious on that one. and sweetners too, do they fit in?

thanks guys cheers!

  • mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm banana island :) i would love that!! with watermelons too!

    i'm having a hard time figuring out hemp seed milk in my ratio. any suggestions? ps i'm still loving that smoothie recipe :D

    ohh i could definatley handle dates. raisens too?

  • thanks eecho. are there any sites that you can recomend? i have been reading a lot posts on here but i'm still not 100 percent confident in my knowledge. how could i add hemp milk, do i just figure out the percentage of the quantity in comparison to the rest of my daily diet?

    also, so there is no confusion i want to keep my womanly bumps wich is the figure i want to maintain. so that is why i was concerened about keeping my calorie in take high..but perhaps that won't matter, is it actually the fat that mainains this? i'm just curious. i don't want to rule out the idea of 801010.

  • awesome!!!!!!!! thank you sooo much superfood2 :). yes i do have a scale.

    thank you soooo much too brunetteKet!! i'll definatley check those blogs out!!

    cheers all!!

  • If you search around, get to know people, buy the ripe fruit that supermarkets throw away because it doesn't "look" pretty anymore and grow your own things like tomatoes and cucumbers (easily grow them around the house); then you can do 801010 for very cheap. You gotta be creative and think outside the box and don't accept the prices that they want to sell you things at because in a week when it doesn't sell they throw it away or you can offer to buy it for about 90% of what they are asking.

    You only have to ask and you'll be amazed at what you can get things for.

  • thanks for the tip. 90% off, that's amazing!!

    thankfully i can grow cucumbers and tomatoes and sweet peas. those i can get an ambundant of. also, luckily, i have wild blueberries rasberries and strawberries around my home and camp. ....but i clear the bushes pretty quickly lol.

  • totally pigged out with pistachios last night, and they were't even raw, and i feel soooooo gross today :( ...i think i'll juice fast for most of the day....? i don't like this heavy feeling.

  • haha, i like that "keep nuts for the cherry on top" . it's amazing how the feeling can carry over to the next day.

    juicing all day has perked me up a bit. i definatley made a better choice there.

    ps. jakkrabbit, i think you are inspiring and absolutley beautiful!!

    on 801010 you cant have any overt fats - it throws your ratios out of balance.

    If you download cron-o-meter and log in your daily consumption you'll see that all you need is a lot of fruit and a lot of veggies.

    the exact balance is not easy to hit, but if you want to keep it simple for a few weeks while you get used to it, do mono meals (one type of fruit per meal - tropical fruit is popular) throughout the day and a few salads chock-full of different veggies in the evening, without any dressings or condiments

    I dont have that book, so I don't know about his view

    but as I am logging in my meals I see that all the necessary fats and protein come from veg & fruit, it's a perfect equation in the end
