February 1st, 2008 at 02:06 pm

But I'm not, I lost 2 more pounds which brings the total up to 9 #s. Had kids sick for the last 2 days, running fevers and stuffy. now I feel lousy and i'm not sure it was from that or from the crash diet I'm on. DH has lost 13 Lbs.

    Hi Nanamom! I haven't been posting much lately, but I just got caught up on your diet plan. I am very proud of you for going vegetarian, but I am a little concerned about your calorie intake. Most raw food vegans I've known eat a TON of food, i.e., huge salads throughout the day, because they have to in order to maintain their caloric intake. There are lots of vegans who eventually get sick or can't maintain their eating patterns because they don't adequately plan their meals. It sounds like you are really working on protein and I'm glad you are taking vitamins. I would just hate to see you have to give it up because you are starving!

    When I became vegan last year, I found the book "Becoming Vegan" by Brenda Davis very helpful. It's not 100% raw, but gives lots of good information about how to get the right nutrients and sustain a healthy diet. I have lost 20 pounds in less than a year...not much in terms of quick weight loss, but it's slow and sustained, and I'm still losing.

    Anyway...just wanted to send you a big hug and say I am proud of you! Feel free to email me!

    p.s. "The Vegan Diet as Chronic Disease Prevention" by Kerrie Saunders is also a great book. Good luck!
