To Start a Raw Food Diet for skinny girl?

Question

I am very interested in starting a raw food diet, but my body type seems to reject it. I tried eating super healthy vegetarian for two weeks and I looked way too skinny. I have a very fast metabolism and if I don't eat a lot of fat I become unhappy with how my body looks. The more fatty stuff I eat the better I look (except for horrible acne).

If anyone can tell me how I can maintain my weight and even how I can gain more (preferred!), then please divulge your infinite wisdom!

Thank you!

Answer 1

I don't recommend eating all raw foods for a long period of time (especially if your diet is vegetarian) since some food nutritional benefit from heat (ex tomatoes) and after a few weeks you'd probably start to feel unhappy because of the lack of variety. And personally I get sick and cold whenever I don't eat hot food at least once a day.



but eating a fair quantity of nuts should help maintain your weight along with protien shakes and smoothies since they contain many nutrients and calories (though don't depend on these for your nutrients)
