awesome man :)

do you have a schedule of your weight etc so far? like when you weighed etc?

[yogioflight]

I weigh myself in the morning, most days.
I haven’t really kept a good record of the weight lost
but its been about 5 weeks with 13lbs lost

I started at 196lbs
I have been 183lbs for a while now,
and I aim for 168lbs
so I’ve lowered my daily intake form 1500-1850 to 1200-1550 calories
and I have new daily goals for
carbs(197-284grams)
fat(39-68grams)
protein(60-153grams)

thanks for the encouragement :)
any advise will be gladly listened to :)

Yum, bananas.

One of the biggest frugality tips for living raw vegan (getting there...) and getting *enough* calories is to eat many, many bananas. I'm averaging 5 per day lately. Because they're SO cheap, unlike berries and such. And the taste doesn't get old or cloying.

Yes, bananas are GREAT :)
and nuts are good, but I'm not eating them again until I reach my weight lose goal as they are TO high in calories

I really admire your drive. Ah, if I had you as cook, I could diet with you ;-)
