what did you eat when you put on yourself weight? did you eat only raw food?

[RawRadiantHealth]

I was eating all raw, but I had quit smoking and my metabolism slowed down, my body was out of whack and detoxing, and I was using food to deal with my withdrawl symptoms. I was over eating like no tomorrow!!!

Hi Natasha!

Thank you so much for all of the inspiration!! I have PCOS, I am all over the place emotionally- I decided to go off the drugs I was on a few years ago to seek alternate healing methods. None of them have really worked, even with no grain, low carb diet. I now know I really need the raw foods diet- How long did it take you to reverse it? I really want to kick this disease's ass, and prove everyone who told me I could not, wrong!!

[RawRadiantHealth]

It took me a few years to completely reverse it-- but well worth it!!! I did it in steps, like you at first I eliminated the grains, watched the sugar (but I never took any medication or hormones for it)-- but once I went on the raw food, I didn't need to follow any rules anymore, just ate fruit vegetables, greens, seeds and nuts and my body started to heal itself. I've been on raw foods for 1.5 years. Do it!!! You have noting to lose!! You will reverse it, I have pure confidence in that!!!!!!!!

Hey Natasha, I have a question regarding all of the nuts that many raw food recipes call for... I realize the nuts have lots of the "good" fats and are high in protein but if I want to try to lose weight while trying to practice a mostly raw diet, would you recommend some limits on the nuts or avocados? I just have found very little on this issue online so far. Thanks for your help. : )

[RawRadiantHealth]

Great question!! I will definitely cover this question in a video this week. For weight loss, I do recommend being mindful of the amount of nuts, seeds and fats you eat. You don't have to eliminate them, but try not to eat too much!!!

Awesome. Check out the foods you can eat which actually help burn fat! Watch some of my videos to see! So much about fruits and vegetables that is underrated that's all I have to say.

I suggest weighing only once a month. If the rusults still frustrates you,,,weigh only once ever two months. When I started the raw food diet,,,,I didn't weigh myself,,,then after two months I was walking across the floor and my jeans fell down to my ankles. I pulled them up and took a few more steps and they fell down again. I bought a new pair of jeans two inches smaller in the waist. I still didn't weigh. Then in another two months the smaller jeans started falling to my ankles.
