Raw Dish!

Stephen about how many calories is this? You look very fit and I assume you work out - are you eating enough calories? I have recently added smoothies and green plant blood to my diet (along with many other raw foods) but I am still transitioning. I love your blog. I've been hearing alot of Douglas Grapham - is that the plan you follow?

Thanks for the compliment. The photo is about 3 years old, I need a new one, but I still look pretty much like this. I stopped counting calories on a regular basis. I check it out of curiosity every now and then. I just eat until I feel sated. When you're new and transitioning I think it's a good idea to check your calories. It helps to be sure that you are getting enough. Also, it helps to learn how much food (quantity) you need. I do my best to follow Dr. Graham's program. I'm the first to say that I do it imperfectly. But I am aware that the more closely I follow it the better I feel.

For me I have been watching my calories and stay around 1800-2000 (I am obese and losing weight). I have not read Dr. Graham's book but think I will. I have been enjoying green smoothies and green juices every day since going High Raw. Of course I love my fruit - apples, peaches, pears, bananas, kiwi, berries - ahhh...fruit!
