30 Days Low Fat Raw Vegan (LFRV) Day 1!!

The hubs and I decided to try 30 days of LFRV...we are wanting to change our way of eating and thought this would be a great experiment that doubles as a cleanse! We are going to follow the 80/10/10 way of eating...80% carbs (fruit) 10% protein and 10% fat. We finished Day 1 successfully! Here is what we ate:

upon rising: 40 ounces of water

Breakfast: 5 bananas blended in the vitamix with 2 medjool dates and some water (to taste/texture)

Lunch: 1lb of red seedless grapes + (me) 1 1/2 bananas (hubs) orange

Snack: (me) banana (hubs) fuji apple

Dinner: about 5 cups romaine lettuce with about 15 or so grape tomatoes and a little red onion (i did put a little oil/vinegar dressing on mine, but not as much as i would normally....my hubs only put herbamare)

Total daily water intake: about 110 ounces

How we felt: we did end up having a headache towards the second half of the day...pretty sure mine was from detoxing and the hubs thinks his was the same plus a little caffeine withdrawl.

Weight Loss: We are weighing ourselves every morning just to see how this impacts our weight. I lost 4 pounds this morning...yay!! The hubs lost 2 pounds!

More to come!!! :)
