Raw Vegan Power!
This is my very 1st announcement on this topic, but I am happy to proclaim that I've happily switched from being mostly-vegan to being raw. It was around late-August 2007 that I began the transition and it has been a super enlightening journey for my digestion and my power!
What does a typical day look like for a raw-foodist like myself you ask? It's more or less the same number of meals. One thing that strays from conventional eating wisdom is the lack of snacking - amongst other things. On most days, it goes like this:
Does this look familiar? It might, because it's based on 80/10/10 aka 811rv. My food intake is low on fat, gives me plenty of calories and is super high on macro & micro nutrients.
Look for future postings with recipes, pictures, and personal stories as I find my way deeper into raw!

- Morning: (after some activity like yoga and/or a commute to school) fresh ripe fruit! Either blended, sliced/chopped, whole, or whatever I have time for. And maybe some dried fruit thrown in.
- Noon/Afternoon: more fresh ripe fruit!
- Later Afternoon: still more fresh ripe fruit!
- Evening: vegetables with perhaps some nuts or seeds for a dressing. Either as a salad, pasta, chopped, whole or whatever suits me.
