  • Big difference in your photos, good stuff

  • Dude, make sure you get loads of carbs, munch down on the fruit, and stay of the fats.

    I struggled with being a raw foodist/vegan and weight, then I found out about the low carb/high fats connection, check it out bro, "the 80/10/10 diet" this book could give you a great start and insight. .Awesome with how far you have come and what you have done already.Good luck for the future bro.

  • I've found DietOramy eating routine (you can easily find it on Google) - that diet is obviously great, I 'm not even starving myself and I am in spite of everything melting away surplus pounds - the trick is in various variants of food items, not in calorie consumption..

  • awesome dude. congratz .

    

  • I've seen this new eating plan called DietOramy (explore google) - my mother told me she begun applying this and already already lost several kilos, without feeling famished or even drained whatsoever... what do you suppose, has anyone ever done it but?

  • wow dude I watched all of your video's wow wow I can tell the difference amazing!!!!! research which foods give you iron like raw cacao etc. each plant food gives the body certain things vitamin D go out in the sun without sunglasses the body takes in vitamin D through the eyes. You look good bro!!!!

  • Always follow your heart.

  • @JuliusTambs hahah.. That's funny dude! I think you should stop being like that because your weight increases more and more... I recommend you try diet programs found in the site WeightLossAction.Info.. I myself tried it and it really was effective.. I couldn't ask for more.. :)

  • Comment removed

  • there is really a difference in the before pictures and how you look now in the video.

    target maybe should be not so much weight loss but organism integral health which normal weight is a part of, but also includes aspects like exercise, better term having fun moving out, and overal mental-body-spirit balance

  • yO i livE in san antonio tx

  • Its always better to reward yourself with "things" than food :) Good for you!!!!! :D

  • Good for you! ! ! I am proud of anyone who embarks on the journey of life to battle back to health again. I know it is a hard one to follow, but well worth the effort just to feel better. But there are lots of other things that clear up as you journey, too. Look into wearing magnets. They made me lose weight and I wasn't even wearing them for that. I was wearing them to boost my immune system and the weight came off.

  • you are an inspiration to me - i'm an overweight 56 yr old

  • you're cool

  • Eat blueberrys for that extra iron ^^

  • good job man. im currently on my weightloss journey. down from 250 to 213. i had some previous pix but hopefully i will make a video to show the world and motivate them. Again, good job.

  • Dude, if you have to take iron pills on a vegetarian raw diet then you are definitely doing something very very wrong.

  • I SAW THE DOCUMENTARY "SIMPLY RAW" REVERSE DIABETES IN 30 DAYS.SO I TOOK THE CHALLENGE, EATING RAW GREEN FOODS HAS COMPLETELY HELPED AND CURED ME.I TRYED THE RAW FOOD DIET FOR 30 DAYS AND USED ORGANIC CAYENNE WITH SALADS,VEGETABLES AND FRESH JUICED VEGGIES AND MY DIABETES WAS REVERSED.ALSO MY HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE AND CHOLESTEROL LEVELS WENT BACK TO NORMAL.EVEN MY SKIN CLEARED UP I LOST WEIGHT AND MY EYESIGHT IMPROVED. IT FELT WONDERFUL TO SEE THE CHANGE RAW FOODS HAD IN MY HEALTH AND MY LIFE!

  • @PastorErickDMarquez

  • @TENNSUMITSUMA silly young man.this better.

  • @PastorErickDMarquez

    ....yes. now then, you said you lost weight but from the profile im seein, your still lookin....so did you stop the raw food at EXACLTY 30 days

  • @TENNSUMITSUMA when i started i was 288lb and now i'm 243lb i feel awesome and my visions cleared up and i'm a whole lot stronger.lots of energy.i 'm enjoying being 100% raw.

  • yeah he's not ugly at all... good looking young guy, I'm straight btw if any females wanna talk to me let me know ;D I'm a lifeguard and software programmer

  • I would love to do that but I hate vegetables

  • so you lost 45 lbs just by eating raw, no exercise or nothing?

  • You're damn cute. >_>

  • Wow, you look amazing! I'm very impressed. 

  • I love Vitamix for this - it's amazing!!! Have you seen the recipes? High in all the nutrients you need just search for Vitamix online -- a great way to get raw foods in - me and my sis do this and my son! :) love it Spirrulina, kale, spinach (organic of course) will give you so much protein and iron! You will love it - keep it up luv <3 I know exactly what you are talking about :)) keep up the good work!

  • Please ignore all the rude comments - good for you luv <3

  • Excellent video!

  • 45 pounds in 5 months is great

  • raw cacao has alot of iron

  • Kale has a lot of iron.

  • Awesome progress, man!

  • You need to work out to dude, not just diet.

  • you're so cute :) 

  • Seriously inspired me man and you look great! I just started the diet today. Would it be okay to eat raw foods for breakfast and lunch and then eat chicken breast for dinner?cooked with no oil of course. I want to lose at least 40 to 60 lbs that would be soooooo awesome :)

  • you don't need vitamins for iron ^__^ just eat more spinach!!

  • You are adorable - so handsome & cute personality!

  • People need COenzyme Q10 found in mostly cold water fish and meats. You can get it from plants in lower levels. It is good to suppliment it if you are on this diet. Also ..seaweed is high in iodine. You need iodine. Most people are deficient. Everyone is different, and every body chemistry. Feel your own body and don't follow something if it doesn't feel right for you.

  • Wow, Huge difference! I have been on the raw food diet since jan. 10, 2010 and i have lost 41 pounds so far. I feel amazing! Keep doing what your doing!!!

  • I'm latitin too. And I know how difficult it's to have a new pat from our roots. Don't lost Your ideal most latins are afreid to try new thing. Even when it's good for own good. Keep doin it. I'm proud of u.

  • Good for you. Very inspiring. I know this is an old video, but I hope you are still living healthy.

  • Beans and or Beets are good for iron...I think.....Somebody correct me if I'm wrong.

    ..That aside, congratulations my friend, you look great. :-)

  • What's the restaurant called in San Antonio, Im a local?

  • dude, I'm of Mexican heritage also...I live in El Paso, Tx. and I know its hard to be a raw foodie if you are Hispanic...hey our food is loaded with the bad stuff...(but it tastes so good) good luck with the raw food thing...

  • gudjob man!

  • Hey man good job, Ive been raw for about 2 months now and lost 30 lb My goal is about 180 and im at 230 so im on the same boat. Keep it up we'll reach the goals.

  • Okay I'll start today.

  • Congratulations on your successes so far! You look healthy! I'm starting my raw food diet and you're definitely an inspiration...take care, and keep it up! :)

  • it takes DEDICATION to change ur lifestyle nice going :DD i want that willpower lol

  • raw cocoa has a great amount of iron, or you can also take RAW vitamins pills for men

  • What happened to this guy now?

  • really inspirational video. thanks for posting

  • Nothing like raw. Keep it up!

  • Good for you sweetheart, you are very inspiring, please keep more vids coming with updates and progress. Thanks!

  • Keep it up!!!

  • Lookin' good!

  • Hey it's awesome that your on the raw food diet. Congrats on the weight loss too. You should check out elaina love's or Ani Phyo's page for raw food recipes they look amazing!...I hear hemph seeds (sp?) are a good source of protein. If your having trouble in terms of getting the necessary nutrients and vitamin, please seek a dietary consultant. Your still young, but you still need the essential vitamins for your body

  • @redegel1985 yeah hemp seeds are very high in protein. I am not a fan of Hemp Milk because of the taste. But when I was drinking it in tea, i was feeling great. If you can find a way to make it not taste like *&*& then drink it.

  • @redegel1985 Can you give me any of your personal tips to start.. I would be so grateful.. I am completely new...to raw , vegan etc...

  • how much weight did you loose the 1st month you started?

  • You look great JT!! Well done - very encouraging for the rest of us that are just commencing the raw food delights :)

  • isnt your mom waiting outside?

  • yes, grass is best for cows and other animals, but it's not best food for human. grains also very bad for human and cows. when you buy grain fed cow's meat, you'll see so much fat in every single cells of the cow. and same thing happens to the human after consuming the grain.

  • nope, i didn't follow anything wrong when i was raw vegan. matter of fact my best friend who is raw vegan himself for good amount of yrs and he claims that he's so successful on this diet, he guided me. now he changes himself little bit after he sees my improvement and he's more curious to know more.

  • don't buy the name of organic out there (even meat products), but try some grass fed and get back to me to inform how you feel. i give you guarantee, you will see the difference right away. your energy level will be sky high and with in some months, your body will be stand out. your skin will be tight and wrinkle free.

  • wow! you're so smart to know all these mystery which i ignore when even my mom asked me to do that. i wish i'm curious as you now. but when the real problem appears and i just don't know what to do (after eating all those pure organic home grown fresh green, soaked seeds and raw nuts, bee pollens and other superfoods...etc), i give a try on my 80% raw fat and 20% of grass fed animal proteins intake, everything changes right away.

  • just be careful! i was raw vegan some part of my life. l loose my hair, teeth and muscle mass and bones. here our goal is being healthy. make some more research on this kind of diet, before it is too late. you must need protein in your body. the doctors and the drug company will love you if you eat greens.

  • really? I find this hard to believe...

  • If these are the symptoms you have created, I would say you have not done things correctly. I would get together with someone who actually knows what they are doing to educate you. I have been ona raw vegan diet for 63 years and look and feel younger than all of my contemporaries on a normal diet. I have worked at most of the raw institutes and had my own place and have seen people get better in all areas when they adopted the lifestyle. TBC

  • Hi, well the advice and teaching are not harmonious. They differ and don't say very much except that in the end there is almost nothing left to eat...if to follow all those advice. And one have to be cautious and respect the law of nature: it isn't very logical to eat exotic fruits in colder climates and countries. Logically you eat whats in season, Melons in winter wont keep you strong for very long...

  • TheSeaboat , you will be more surprise how people claim that they do very well on raw vegan diet. usually they claim themselves as guru or teachers. these people are stubborn and usually older age.

    "Gr8stuffis"...this woman is complete crazy and she's one of those vegan gurus. usually when they consume too much fibers and get old, their tummies get clogged up (with fibers) and these people die with severe protein deficiency.

  • matter of fact, when i was just turning 50, I went to a wedding in Los Angeles, and a very striking personal trainer who owned a gym came up to me and told me that I was the only other person in that room that was buff.

  • rvrh, to suggest that eating greens will lead to loss of muscle mass or bones or teeth or hair, is interesting. If this were true how do you explain the muscle mass, and strength of animals like cows and bulls, apes, horses ( especially the clydesdales ) etc.?

  • Hi, rvrh; that was my experience too! It was horrendous. I still have to be extremely cautious not to ever eat to much fruit, I eat berries and apples in season and not even then that much. I eat mostrly raw meats and eggs...and my gums are sooo calm! And my stomach. I tried the Green for life - approach, thought it would do me good but never, ever again....and that when I was used to greens since before. Argh!

    Also hope that people really do some serious investigation before going raw vegan :)

  • u r a cute dude

  • I need to ask a question what If I eat steem broccil wit melted chesse does that count as cooked food

  • @ithrowcatsatdogs  some smoking processes are suspected carcinogens

  • its probably raw "chipotle" sauce, not "raw" chipotle sauce :)

  • Hi -- it's been a while since this post, but if you haven't tried it yet -- blend greens and fruit together. Get the book Green for Life. It will help.

  • Your nice looking heavy and slim both.

    Keep up the good work.

  • dang boy your looking good ;)

    keep up the grate work and wish you the best in this journey !

  • I'm Chinese and 185 pounds and I think I'm extremely fat.

  • yes you are

  • well how fat you are is based on your height.

  • Oh yeah! I absolutely see the difference.

    Keep on going & good luck. :-)

    Thanks for sharing.

  • Hey, you are looking good. By the way, what kind of bird do you have. I wanna see it.

  • congrats man!

  • your skin looks great.

  • You look awesome!

  • Your really cute and you look fantastic. Congratulations on your progress and keep it up. You must feel great!

  • BIG difference! Wow, you're doing great! I'm doing the same as you and the health difference is noticeable and feels good. So, stay with the healthy food. You look so much healthier. Try to stay 100% raw and make sure you eat lots of variety to get all the minerals you need. You're a big encouragement to me. :)

  • wow. This is amazing. Thank you so much for sharing! I love raw foods and juicing/smoothies also. I think you look great, I could definitely tell the difference! Blessings to you! : )

  • 45 pounds is great! Keep it up. Just stay positive!

  • Good for you! You already look great. Make sure you don't return to old diet when you achieve your goal weight!

  • Yeah, but what is your body made of?

    No vital food + no exercise = a body continually in decay and disrepair.

    No vital food + exercise

    OR

    Vital food + no exercise = a body in a constant state of repair

    Vital food + exercise = a body in continual health.

  • =)! I like number 3

  • :) may you enjoy good health, mama

  • health comes first!

  • This is more of a lifestyle change though... I didn't necessarily think that I'd be a vegetarian for the rest of my life but now I can't see it any other way. Processed foods and meats make me feel like shit when I consume them. Plus, 90% of weight loss is diet.

  • Try drinking GREEN SMOOTHIES (on youtube, look up Sergei Boutenko) everyday and you'll get your iron level back up to normal pretty quickly... also, you'll experience better overall results!

    Good luck on your journey, from another rawbie... :)

  • You are misinformed on both counts. If you choose to eay meat, you can eat it raw, but eating meat is not only necessary, but our protein requirements are much lower than some want us to believe.

  • That's cool, thanks for sharing! You look good and your skin looks healthy and glowing... yeah raw food! Hope you're still doing good.  :)

  • wow way to go! i wanna try the raw food diet

  • wow! well done!

  • Whoa! Thats a big difference! You look so great right now, keep it up!! :)

  • good for you!

  • You look great! Keep it up!

  • BIEN AHI!!!

  • whoa!!!! dude good job...ur a handsome rawkin guy....pay no attention to asses like "M60Rambo" his nick pretty much says it all...keep on keepin and keep us updated!!!

  • wow! Good job! XD

  • haha.fucken canadians...and idk what ur talkin aboot, aeropostal is badass..

  • He's not UGLY at all!! He's a good looking guy. You're ugly...inside and out!

  • @M60Rambo - for iron, drink a green smoothie (with spinach and bananas) - my iron is always good - measured every 3 months.

  • about this comment - Please ignore all the rude and ridiculous comments - I'm like wow - seriously????

    good for you luv <3 all negative energy and comments are garbage - I love a person who shares from a "real" place. Not a "hateful" one like M60Rambo! You are real and that makes you amazing!!!

    Keep up the good work - Your body, mind, and spirit are so thanking you for it. Thanks for the encouragement -- for sooooo many people! You rock ;)

  • Fuck the phone and tell us how you're loosing your fat ass.

  • Hey, is that a bird waiting for his whole live to die? Stop buying animals and locked up them!

    Who are we to judges for locking up animals!

  • Your doing fantastic on the weight loss!

    Way to go.  I'm a mom of three preteens and am looking for a raw nut cheese recipe,when I saw your video....I've toned up myself,but no weight loss. It's month three and I feel terrific! More energy and a glow.

  • iron is found in dark veggies like spinach, broccoli dark green veggies contain iron so idk how u were deficient on it

    word of advice- when raw a lot of ppl make the mistakes of eating too much nuts and seeds which is high calorie and fat so watch out and make greens ur foundation :) and wooow 5 months? thats a loong time congrats!

  • a good diet is key to a successful approach to weightloss plan but dont forget to get some good exercise. eating well is a small part, although very important or i should say the most important, of losing weight and keeping it but without exercising you will never get toned definition.

  • your voice sounds like you have a good talent for rapping and making rap music, did you ever sing a rap song

  • Great job! 45lbs is a great start!

  • You are awesome!! Congrats and what an inspiration!

  • good fucking job

  • good job dude!

  • Awesome. Keep going raw.

  • I don't even know you but I am so proud of you! You rock : ) Keep on keeping on.

  • u look fab =)

  • I'm starting raw tomorrow. Keep your posts coming. I'm going to need all the motivation I can get. I'm not a naturally disciplined person. LOL You look great.

  • do u work out?

  • Seriously, you're inspiring me to go on the raw food diet. But 1 question: Is the raw food routine a lifestyle? I'm thinking I will go on the raw food diet for 4 months and try to revert back to my normal eating habits. Any help will be greatly appreciated!

  • if you go back to your normal eating habits you will end up where you started. Eating raw food is, atleast i would say, a lifestyle.

  • Thanks for the reply :-)

  • Wow! What a change. You are an inspiration.

  • you look so great!!!!

  • good job! :) keep at it! you are doing great!

  • Looks Good dude. Congratulations! BTW What type of laptop do you have? LOL

  • If you are looking for a raw source of iron, beets have 1.09 mg of iron per serving and since your daily intake should be about 10 mg that is 1/10 per serving. Not bad huh?

  • WHY are people saying your anemic??????????@#@

  • wow i would love to give raw food a shot...im just not sure how to get started i cant believe you did it for 5 months oh and you can tell a difference your face is so much more defined

  • no jokes.......is your bowel movements different?

  • Since I have been on the raw food diet, I feel better in my stomach. I am in shape but sometimes felt bloated, not anymore though. You poop less and do not feel as much strain, sorry to be graphic but I am sure that is the info you wanted, right?

  • u really ARE the man dude..i'd love to go raw food..whats ur tactic?..cos like i'll be really good for a while and lose like 20lb and then downhill from there..any feedback would be good...good feedback mind,not "eat less fat ass" cheers !

  • Wow! Keep up the great work! You're a cutie! (You always were, though...)

  • to give you more info. The way to avoid contaminated eggs is to buy organic eggs or eggs from healthy chickens and if you eat raw yolks every day (in a smoothie or as salad dressing or however you like), you will become immune to the occasional contamination. In the beginning you may get a little dizzy from it, this is normal and won't be like that once you are used to it every day. Egg yolks are an amazing brain and health food.

  • Hi! About the iron deficiency, there is something great you can do about that without having to take pills. It's better to get it from food so here's what you can do: you can eat 5 RAW egg YOLKS (not the white) a day. I know this may not sound palatable to you but it is actually delicious and it contains lots of iron and lots of other minerals and vitamins that can help you feel your best. I have done this for many years and you can google on it to find out more as I don't have much time

  • you look great. awesome weight loss. dis you have any problems with constipation. i have recently started raw foods and that is such a problem

  • You look awesome! You are very inspiring!! You should search for Annie Phyo ( i think that is how u spell her last name) She has some awesome raw food recipes on youtube

    Congratulations and keep up the good work.

  • you look great i might go on this diet

  • huge difference! awesome job!

  • your cute and have a nice smile :)

  • What type of activity are you doing? I started with just walking on the treadmill everyday and it just melted off. I lost about 10 lbs a week. It was scary but I am happy with the results hehe...here's to your success! xoxo Alvina

  • wow...you're willpower is amazing. I quit smoking a month ago (after 18 years) and now I want to go raw. I have ulcerative colitis and I'm really suffering. Any tips you could offer on how to get started would be greatly appreciated. Btw, you can see your progress in every one of your pics. Good job man. The fact that you did it without drugs, surgery and gimmick diets says a lot about you:)

  • you look really healthy. keep up the good work, dude

  • major difference dude!keep moving forward and don't look back!

  • good for you!!!! Keep going, a healthy diet is a life style and its great you've found something that works. BIG difference in the pics. good luck.
