Guest guest Posted October 25, 2007 Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 I was a little bit concerned when I discovered that I'm down to 117 pounds. I have lost a total of 20 pounds now, since I've started the raw foods diet last March, and I was hoping to stay at 120 pounds. My husband is afraid that I may disappear completely soon. LOL!!! I haven't been this thin since I was 14 and in tenth grade!!! I am 5' 6 1/2 " tall! I know that when I see my Aunt Dorothy next month, she's going to tell me that I'm way too skinny!! She was saying that when I was 20 pounds heavier!! Maybe I should eat more nuts? I do eat 1/2 avocado almost every evening with my salad, so I thought I was getting plenty of fat in my diet. Also, I am not yet 100% raw. I am only about 90% raw right now, I'd say. For the most part, I follow the 80 10 10 diet. If anybody has any advice, I'd appreciate it. I " d be happy to stay at 117, but I really don't want to LOSE ANY more weight!! Thanks so much!! Lynne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 25, 2007 Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 Hi Lynne, I am not an expert on this but my experience is that when I eat a lot of avocados (in the old days I used to eat two to four a day), I gain weight. One avocado has around 300 calories. Harsha Lynne Moore wrote: > I was a little bit concerned when I discovered that I'm down to 117 > pounds.
