Too Much Fruit On a Low Fat Raw Diet?!

“Wow, that’s a lot of fruit! Isn’t that too much?  How can you possibly eat all that?!”

These are just some of the comments I receive (A LOT!) about eating a low fat raw vegan diet, so I thought I’d spend a few moments talking about the “too much fruit” issue in a video.

I think the quality in this one turned out much better. Enjoy! :)

Thanks Swayze.
I eat from 10-12 bananas a day and it is freeing not worrying about what I’m going to eat and how many calories I’m consuming. I know they’re always there adn it’s so easy. The challenge is keeping my supply up and having them always be in various stages of ripenness. It was good to see you let your bananas get as ripe as I do. :) I like the videos on occasion. It’s nice to see the face and personality behind the blog once in a while.

Why no veggies other than greens?

I do eat other vegetables besides greens, such as celery, carrots, and broccoli, but the emphasis is on tender, leafy greens. I also eat lots of non-sweet fruits like zucchini and cucumber.

I loved watching your video Swayze! It’s so true about everything being relative. That’s a concept that is difficult for people to get for some reason!

I do not mind a video, but 8 mins of video I would rather be able to scan read a page and get the relevant information that is new to me.

I completly agree with everything you said in your video! People at work always comment on how much fruit I eat. I’ll have 1.5 melons for lunch with some berries and they are so amazed to see that I can eat so much. What bothers me is that they are saying that as they are scarfing down 2 slices of greasy pizza!

I really enjoy watching your videos, and this was a great addition! Your fun personality really comes through. It’s so wonderful that we get to eat so much food eating this way – I totally love it too. I’ve adjusted, and 10 bananas seems like a normal lunch to me now. It’s so nice to feel really full and satisfied from my food, but not heavy or weighed down. Thanks Swayze!

P.S. I’m working on the last of my persimmons too – they’re one of my top favorite fruits! It’s been a good winter.

Hey Swayze,
I cannot remember what post it was I commented on about the taste Of durian, well after your reply I thought I might revisit the fruit again and in doing so I realized I had got the fruit Jackfruit mixed up with Durian.
Now I understand why it is considered good eating I had a right ole pig out on it :-)

What a great video Swayze! Really straight to the point – and you talked about one of the most important things (not only for succeeding on this diet, but I guess for everything in life): concentrating on the good things instead of worrying about the bad things!

Thanks for posting that! Already excited about what will come next…. :-)

Bye
Kathrin

I just saw this video…good stuff! Your vids are great! I’m in awe of all the delish fruit we can eat, too. My persimmons are gone but pointing out yours was cute…
