Angela Stokes on CNN News: Raw Food Weight Loss

@SolomonGrundy101

I don't know. Maybe these morons don't understand that animals and nature aren't benevolent entities that set good examples.

to tofurkeyrice.. if you were at 100 lbs & 5ft 6 you were already underweight before you even started to diet.. a 5ft 6 inch female should weigh no less than 120 lbs..you need to find a way to get more protein into your diet to build muscle weight.. yogurt is a good way but that alone may not be enough.. go to a health foods store & ask someone there to recommend a protein powder for weight & muscle gain..seek the advice of a professional to help you put on weight in a healthy way

I'm ur same height and started the diet yesterday for mainly the same reason as you, but i also weigh more than u. How long have u been doing it? It's natural to lose weight in the beginning b.c ur body gets rid of toxins and excess water weight.

Incorporate more fats into your diet like avocados or raw oils like coconut and olive oil.

its not whether the food you eat is raw or cooked its how much you eat.

because they have drunk the raw Kool aid solomon. The raw food religion is just like all the other religions you can't reason with its followers.

You can't out run them either.

All the things that the cooked foods make you become (high pressure, problems with sugar levels, depression, fatigue, etc.) disappear when you eat only uncooked food. You born again. I'm not at that point yet, but I already noticed that my cravings for food almost disappeared since I've been juicing my veggies.

If you can go 50% raw from the beginning, please go ahead. But I would rather recommend buying a juicer and make 2 cups of veggie/fruit vegetables, twice a day before your regular meal. At one point, you will notice the portion of your regular meal will decrease as you're getting the vitamins and minerals that your body meal.

You are not getting enough fats.

Try eatting 4 avocado's a day, you will gain weight.

I have done that and I didn't gain weight.
