my thinking is, yes good fat help to lose it! bc. it swich to good cholesterol->loosing one. However, i must say, interesting is i eat only good one and the rest residues are the bad one(so i assume in a good ration, even though i dont measure it)...
Hi Mish,
I'm a new to raw, it's been almost a month. I'm confused and curious about your point. Avocado is a fat, yet you eat it with tomato, a fruit. Also, what dietary fats are you talking about? And you say not to combine fruits and fats at the...
Vegetables have bitterness too as a component. Juiceitup, are you saying you know someone who only eats green vegetables and eats nothing else? In order to get enough calories, after a time, in essence the person would be poisoned from all the bit...
If you have time listen to these teleseminars
http://www.thetruthaboutyourfood.com/teleseminars.php
I found them very interesting and they cleared a lot of many questions that I had about nutrition and optimal health.
more i forget to add, no calories count for dieting but eat as little calories as u can as u can for the most nutrient, vitamins and minerals necessary each day....->u have to feed/starve your to balance body to maintain thinnes and good health......
my statement, is choose to eat fat, protein and sugar in good low caloried diet, or eat high sugar no fat and protein normal little, or high fat no suga and little protein.... calories matter, but only little well nutrised body dont need eat more ...

I've finally transformed into a bowel-preoccupied health fanatic-- just like my great c19 heroes.

hahaha wellwrought, yes the Princess in T.Robbins book just like other characters are just mad, I just wish he wrote some more books, cause I could do with a great laugh :)
(also loved when a spoon, tin of beans and a stick went to Jerusalem)
You teach reading poetry? Fantastic, I like poetry but reading it in english is not that easy for me (not my first language).
Happy Birthday! Are you going to make a raw cake? My birthday is next month and I'm debating if I'll make a regular cake for everyone to have, or a little raw one just for me.
Good luck with figuring out whether high/low/mid fat in your diet works well. I'm in the same boat as you, and I ordered 80/10/10 last week so I guess I'll see what info I can use from it, if any. Again, happy birthday from a fellow bowel-preoccupied gal!
and I can't really hone in on a particular area yet, I love Shakespeare, Whitman, T.S. Elliot, Woolf .. I still have a lot more to explore and delve into, I'm quite excited!!!! I love creative writing, so I figured a major in English would be very conducive towards the development of my own writing abilities.
Welcome to the community!! I love your favorite authors and that's so awesome that you're working on a doctorate in 19th century american lit!! I'm an undergrad english major :)
