Hello all!
Brief history. Vegan 20+ years, was raw vegan (almost exclusively raw) 4 years, slipped off the raw wagon when pregnant as carbs stopped me feeling sick. Spent 9 months scoffing home made garlic bread, chips and spelt pasta. Baby arrived, still felt terrible, continued to scoff the carbs. Been back to raw for about five months now. Feeling superb at last! But I can not, no matter what I do, loose any of that carb weight I put on. I'm currently 21lb over my fit&raw weight and I'm only a shortie. Below is a typical day for me, comments appreciated!
Breakfast - green smoothie (mango, banana, avocardo, tbs good oil, spinach, kale, vega one)
Lunch - chia seeds with blueberries, strawberries and raspberries
Dinner - salad (broccoli, carrot, pepper, tomatoes, cucumber, salad leaves and raw coleslaw - cabbage, onion, carrot in raw mayo - cashews, pine nuts, macadamia, lemon juice, cider vinegar and water)
Desert - raw chocolate torte which is basically cacao, caob, almond, coconut sugar/nectar and coconut oil
I think I'm eating a decent amount of green and my fat content isn't hugely high, proteins bumped with the addition of vega one to smoothie. Thoughts?
P.S apologies for any typing errors, I'm on an iPad and it won't let me go back and amend without deleting everything I've subsequently typed.
