Is it safe to eat only raw veggies and fruit and drink only water to lose weight?

Question

Will it make me sick if I'm used to eating meat, bread, sodas, etc? Has anyone tried this and does it work pretty quickly?

Answer 1

No you need to also eat fruit. Here is the diet I just was one and I have lost over 100 lbs

First week
Fruit, vegatables cooked or raw, 1 cup of yogart per day, and 4 almonds. You can use fruit to make water or slushys

Week two
All of the above and add
1 serving of pasta cooked no tomatoe sauce no salt nothing added, except Garlic powder
1 serving of rice integral
1 serving of butter or oil

Third week
all the above plus
1 tortilla asado
Tomatoes, lettuce, onion, Avacados

Limit your soda to one glass of diet soda per day

Drink 18 to 20 oz of water before each meal. And 8 oz of water if just eating fruit or vegtable

NO PORK

Answer 2

Altough raw veggies,fruit and water are excellent for your health, you need to eat a bit of proteins and some grains.
If you are a vegetarian eat a bit of tofu or drink a bit of unsweetened soy milk. If you are not a vegetarian, try 1/2 a can of tuna, or a bit of fish or chicken.
You should'nt try to lose weight fast tough, you will gain it all back and the lack of proteins will make you loose more muscles than fat... Wich will make your metabolism even more slow...Not to mention mood swings, heart palpitations, chronic fatigue, head-aches etc...
So you would be better off cutting out all sodas and fattening foods.
Eat 3 balanced meals,and exercise at least 30 minutes a day.
That way you will increase your metabolism and be more likely to keep the weight off.
Example of 3 balanced meals:
Breakfast: 1 peice of fruit, 3/4 cup of cereal and 1/2 cup of low fat milk.
Or: 1 piece of whole grain toast and 1 hard boiled egg
1 piece of fruit

Lunch or dinner: 50% vegetables, 1 portion of low fat meat
or of low fat cottage cheese
1 piece of grain product
This is a very low calories diet tough...but scince you seem to wantto loose fast, at least you will have a bit of essential nutrients by taking a bit or grains and protein ans calcium...It is not safe, but it is much safer than only veggies and fruit...Plus you will have something to make your muscles work when you do those exercises.

Answer 3

By following a diet of only raw vegetables and fruits you are eliminating important parts of a good healthy diet that your body needs to function.

Eat raw veggies and fruit, but add grains, beans and lean proteins. It's wise to stay away from soda. Water is an excellent beverage to drink all day.

Answer 4

Hi
The only problem with that would be boredom instead try this plan it really works so here goes,
If you are serious about losing weight, the calories in the food you eat should be less than the energy you use. You will have to increase your metabolic rate now, and plan your diet carefully.
Formulate your own weight loss plan and you will lose weight faster. More details available at http://tinyurl.com/m7ckx

Answer 5

There is only one way to lose weight safely. That is to actually increase the amount of food (a balance of carbs, protein and vegetables) that you normally take and then exercise frequently.
There is no quick fix. Check out this website:

Answer 6

When you eat unhealthy for such a long time, your blood changes in such a way that it cannot carry toxins and heavy metals out of the body. Also unhealthy eating results in unhealthy excretory organs. If the body cannot get rid of waste then it stores them in fat bone and muscle which can fool people into thinking that they are over fat, but rather over toxic. The body stores them to keep them from damaging organs and out of circulation. Also heavy metals and toxins all carry a positive charge so the body considers them to be electrolytic, so the body will store more water which just makes you look even fatter.

Trick is in most cases get rid of the toxins and heavy metals and you will find the weight will come of extremely quickly even without excercising. The body will do anything to get healthy given half a chance and it sees toxins as extremely unhealthy.

What happens is eat healthy (lots of raw vegetables) and it changes the blood and organs in a way that that it can start to get rid of toxins in the blood at the particular time. In the body things move from high concentration to low concentration. Get rid of toxins in the blood and guess what you have low concentration in the blood and high concentration in fat, bone and muscle so they end up coming out and as long as you keep eating healthy the exchange will continue to take place.

Good thing for you is the fat stores seem to go first then muscle then bone.

The best thing to do is eat lots of raw vegetables. I cant stand raw vegetables but I love them when they are all blended up with some all natural fruit juice.

Avoid as many toxins as possible.

You want to get your blood more alkaline, if you are fat then you can bet your acidic.

Depening on how fat you are its really not good to do intense hard workouts, it can indirectly make you even fatter. As you produce lactic acid the body uses alkaline stores to carry it out of the body, so if your short on stores in the first place its only making matters worse. For the time being dont do anything that makes you out of breath. The body wants to be healthy and if your struggling to breath then thats your bodys way of telling you that it is struggling to remove the lactic acid you have produced, its telling you to slow down. (breathing is one of the body's ways to maintain ph balance in the blood) you will learn all this when you visit the website.

Also the best thing about eating not just healthy foods but alkaline forming foods is the body night and day even when you sleep, especially when you sleep will be detoxifying itself, hence losing weight.

Aslo it increases your energy levels, heavy metals displace magnesium, muscles need magnesium to contract, so eliminate heavy metals and then magnesium can get to it's binding site resulting in more potentially expendable energy.

Bottom line get healthy by eating healthy and the body will by itself asap get back to a healthy weight range which is deemed attractive to the human mind.
