5 Tips For A Successful Raw Food DIet

Here are the tips that have led me towards maintaining a raw food diet for over 2 years.

OK maybe not perfectly and some things I have are "questionably" raw but I am heading on the right track.

So here goes:

1.  Eat lots of fruit!

Fruit should make up the bulk of your calories.  Fall in love with fruit.  Become a connoisseur of fruit.  Start using a nutrition application to learn how much fruit you have to eat to maintain your weight.

2. Eat Simply, Eat Monomeals

What is a monomeal?  It is when you eat one food alone until you are full.  Just bananas.  Just mangoes.  Just strawberries.  One at a time until you are full.  The easiest and simplest way to eat.  Give it a try!

3.  Buy In bulk

Find a place to buy in bulk.  You will need to buy a lot of volume and this may be a little inconvenient and over priced in the supermarket.  If you can find a wholesale market or even got to farmers direct you can get some great deals.

4.  Get Plenty Of Rest!

Going to a raw food diet will bring you more directly in touch with your bodies cues. You may become aware of how tired you really are and how you have been depriving yourself from the amount of the sleep you really need.

5.  Go And Meet Other Fruity People!

Most importantly go and meet people who are doing this lifestyle.  Find a local Fruitluck or contact people on Facebook.  You could start your own group.  The best thing is to go to a large event, a festival for example, that has other people with years of experience in the lifestyle to teach you and help you on your way.  You and your friends can share information and knowledge to help and inspire each other and lead to joint success.

In writing this I realise there are so many more things to say.  But I will leave it there for now.  I wish you success on your raw food journey.
