  1. Thanks for your help! I'll try what you said! I'm starting to go back to my raw food vegan diet again! For some reason I can get plenty of food in the raw vegan diet without having too many calories! Plus my digestion does 100 times better which makes a differense in having less body fat! I have hypoglycemia and I do better on the raw vegan diet keeping my fruits high by having a high carb low fat vegan diet! I'll eat a little cooked veggies or whole grains, but 75% or more will be raw because my digestion and energy levels just does so much better! Thanks again!
  2. Hi, I'm on my second week on insanity and I feel like I have to eat way more to keep my energy up then what I should! I've noticed my biceps are looking stronger, but I don't see any fat coming off yet! Besides doing insanity I also take my dog for a 30 min. walk everyday unless it's nasty out side, the walk has alot of hills and I end up walking about 2-3 miles! I don't know if that would make any differense! Plus I have a pear shaped body I would really like to get rid of! I'm doing searching on what vegan foods I should stay away from that can increase more fat in the lower body! I do have alot of muscle it's just I got some fat on top of it covering it up, whitch I HATE! It's like the last bit of fat that's hard to get off! I weigh around 140 lbs if that helps! Would anyone know what I might be doing wrong! By the way coconut oil in my diet keeps my energy up and helps me with my blood sugar and helps my digestion- so that's why I have it in some of my meals! For breakfast I have a protein smoothie a hour or so before I exercise! About 7:30 a.m 2-3 bananas 1 serv. soy protein isolate 1cup spinach 1cup unsweetened almond milk 1 tbsp coconut oil For recovery about 30 min. after my workout I have another protein smoothie. 2-3 bananas 1 serv. soy protein isolate 1/2 cup berries 1cup unsweetened almond milk 1 tbsp coconut oil For lunch around 1:00 p.m 1cup brown rice 1/2 cup split peas or other peas 1-2 cups of steamed veg. 1 tbsp coconut oil mixed in the rice For a snack around 3:30 about 5-6 dates or 1cup of juicy fruit 1/4 cup of natural nuts For supper around 5:30 a medium salad 2cups romain 1/2 med. tomato few slices of onion some split peas or 1 vegan pattie cut up in the salad carrots celery cauliflower broccoli 2 tbsp veagan mayo 1/2 avocado For a snack around 8:00 medium banana 1 serv. nat. p-nut butter
  3. I'll try the oats, but I won't the pasta! I won't consume processed carbs! The processed carbs puts alot of fat on me that I don't want! It might not do that to you, but it does to me! That's why I have trouble sometimes! Anyway thanks for your ideas! The oats won't bother me!
  4. Thanks everyone for your info! I'll see if those work for me! The other problem I'm facing is I"m not burning any body fat, I haven't for a long time! Actually I've done the opposite! I"m doing Insanity right now! Would that be enough to burn off body fat or should I exercise more then that? It's normally 30-40 minutes 5-6 days a week, but more intense! Would I be eating too much? I'm wanting to get really fit! Eating this way my energy is back, but I'm not improving! Last time I weighted myself I was 135 lbs. Here is what I have! around 9:00 a.m. smoothie with 4-5 bananas, other fruits like blueberries or strawberries, 1 & 1/4 c. of unsweetened almond milk 1/2-1 serv. pea protein around 12:00 p.m. same as 9:00 smoothie, except I add maybe a different fruit or a green to it instead of what I had last time. around 3:00 p.m. same as 9:00 & 12:00 smoothie, except I add maybe some carob or green to it instead of any fruit! around 6:00 p.m. a dinner salad with 2-3 c. of romaine, tomato, carrot, bell pepper. some home made bean soup with soaked great northern beans, broccoli, cauliflower, carrot, celery, potatoe, soaked brown rice, vegetable broth, onion, garlic, sea salt, black pepper, red pepper. I make sure not to eat after 7:00 p.m! Thanks everyone for your help!
  5. Thanks, I'll remember what you told me! I'm going to be doing some shopping and some cooking this weekend! Thanks everyone for all of your help!
  6. Thanks, I'll try mixing the vegetables like you said! What vegetables would be the best besides potatoes and carrots? Like would bell peppers and celery be just as good with fiber or would it be more the root vegetables that have the fiber?
  7. Yes, but I guess I need to eat more of them! I have trouble digesting them sometimes, so I get scared to eat them! I think I won't have trouble with them if I make sure to soak them good before I cook them. I also have to stick to only one kind of bean at a time because that causes me more digesting problems! Thanks for the idea!
  8. I get really weak sometimes because I have a hard time getting enough good carbs in my diet! The main carbs in my diet is fruit (bananas). Whole grains give me digestion problems! So my other carbs comes from potatoes and vegetables! I get sick after eating 5 meals of fruit all day and night! Does anyone else have any other ideas? Thanks have a great night!
