Turning around.......

I'm thinking of going on a raw Food diet just to shred abit of weight. It will consist of eating vegetables, abit of fruit and some protein. Staying off the carbs and only drinking water.

Viking:
Water is a good idea, or no added sugar squash is good if you get bored of the council pop!

Fortunatly for me I'm not really into carbs, never been a big fan of potatos, rice, pasta even bread really so cutting them hasn't been too bad for me. Biggest problem I've had is staying full, with portion sizes dropping a fair bit and keeping away from rice, pasta etc.... it's finding something to replace that bulk. Been eating a load of veg, but again you have to be careful as they all add up.

Dry fried (just straight in a hot non stick pan, no fat) courgette, peppers and aubergines have become a favourate in our household!!

We eat a lot of stir fries in my house or salads. and a lot of Kangaroo, (fun fact: Australia is the only country to eat the animals on it's coat of arms/national emblem), Kangaroo is probably my favourite meat, it is like a really lean, gamey version of beef, I guess, but tastes awesome, as long as you cook it right (rare-medium rare). Although we still also eat at least 1 rice and 1 pasta dish a week, but I am not too fussed about that, I have finally taught mum to buy wholegrain pastas :D

Benjamin Franklin suggested that the united States adopt the turkey instead of the bald eagle as its national symbol.  Had that happened, every November when Americans sit down to Thanksgiving dinner, we would be eating our national symbol!  Just some food for thought!
