Raw diets can be very hard on the digestive system. I wouldn't suggest doing that for more than a few days if your stomach doesn't tolerate it. But they can be great if you want to detox your body. But a whole food isn't only fruits and veggies. Grains are a whole food, provided it didn't come in a box. I had granola, yogurt, nuts, and a banana for breakfast. Only the granola was minimally processed but I don't beat myself up about it. This will give me the energy to be active and I will burn all those calories by lunchtime just by doing some laundry and other chores.
I read somwhere that a whole food diet is more of a habit and not a diet. Just eat food that is as close to its natural state as you can. This includes meat if you are a meat eater, but buy it from a butcher, not a freezer.
IIN that I feel that starvation dieting is the only way I lose weight?
