Heh, just realized my post sounded a little preachy. Didn’t mean it that way, and I understand that for some people a low fat diet really does the trick for them.

I’m not too surprised to hear you experienced some mostly negative results by eliminating fats, but I’m so glad to hear that someone went through a person trial to confirm it. Fats are essential for our bodies to store and process certain nutrients (such as fat-soluble vitamins). I’m glad that for the most part, people are starting to see that a moderate intake of healthy fats is actually a good thing for us, and that not everything we eat has to be fat free if we want to be healthy or lose weight.

I shouldn’t nag, but I keep hoping you’ll come back to blogging regularly! I miss you!

Yay fellow fat lover and vegan mama! Yes, I think it’s especially important for us mamas. And the awesome flavor does help. =)

Veggie broth is great for some things, but it aint the same for things like tofu/tempeh. They need that richness, mmm.

Thanks Rachel! It was a strange 9-month trial, but ultimately it was SO worth it. =)

If I eat too much fruit with fat (like apples plus nut butter, one of my favorites!) it can mess with my digestion. Maybe it’s a combination of foods that are giving you trouble. Worth investigating!

Oh man I wish there was! I should add the “by month archive” thingy in the side bar or footer. It’s just a widget I think. I’ll look into that. In the meantime, here’s a few WIAWs from last June (I just scrolled through the WIAW posts and looked for the ones with RAW in the title to get my bearings and checked the dates from there, haha. All the WIAWs are under “the food” –> “foodstyles”)

then it looks like I posted a WIAW of our anniversary dinner, which I was not raw for. Then I skipped a few WIAWs and didn’t do another one until early July, but it’s also a good example of how I was eating then:
