I am raising her as a vegetarian and would like some healthy but yummy meal ideas for her. She eats one scrambled egg in the morning with whole wheat toast & fruit every morning, but for lunches & dinners I need some ideas. I cannot give her what I am eating as I am on a crash only veggie diet. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks.
I DON’T eat eggs but I do give them to her as she does need protein & she is too young for nuts.

im very tired but i need to get motivated to do a ton of school work. I was thinking just a red bull or something but i dont want the crash. Will the no sugar red bull still give me a crash? Are there any vitamins or pills that will give me some energy and motivation to do all of my work. Im major stressing right now.

Thanks!

also dont give me any crap saying "dont do that" or "eat a banana for energy".

I have started going running twice a day, but found that I get tired very quickly and very easily. My family and friends say that this is because I’m not eating foods that give me a lot of energy. So I started eating really sugary foods, and now I just feel slow, their really unhealthy, AND I get the crash after it. So, other than energy drinks or sugary foods, what can I eat that isn’t bad for me that will give me a lot of energy? Thanks. :)

I read in Women’s Health magazine one time that for some people with a certain body type (the name I can’t remember) that eating bread or carbs makes you crash, while for others it will energize them. Eating carbs definitely makes me extremely tired, and I want to research more about this so that I can stop eating the foods that make me tired, but I don’t know what it’s called. Anyone know what I am talking about?

About three months ago, I began transitioning to the raw food diet. At first, I was strictly raw… I just kinda threw myself in there, and managed to upold it for about a month. Since then, I’ve kinda fallen off the wagon, though.

My biggest problem was being hungry all the time. At first, I was dealing just fine… It seems, though, that my body will plateau and fluctuate by 3 or 4 pounds (this is in general, not in the raw transition) and as soon as I start to dip below that, I feel insatiably hungry until I load up on food and go back up to my "regular" weight. I hit that plateau about two weeks after going raw, and managed to stay raw- although overindulging- for another few weeks before starting to re-suppliment my diet with cooked grains, ect.

I have had problems in the past with eating disorders. When I hit these plateaus and become ravenous all the time, I get very depressed. When I can keep my food intake steady, I manage ok, but when I start pigging out and eating everything in sight, I tend to "crash" and eat more because of these problems with food that I’ve had in the past.

The main reason that I started putting cooked food back into my diet was protein… I felt that a big reason that I was hungry all the time was because I was lacking it. (Has anyone heard about the Blood Type Diet? About a week ago I was doing some reading, and came across information on it… If the theories that it presents are correct, then as an O- protein should be a major part of my diet…)

Does anyone have any suggestions for moving past this initial phase of detox and getting back in the raw swing? I started taking a greens suppliment, to make sure that I was getting enough. I know that nuts have a good amount of protein, but sometimes they make me sick.

Are there any side-effects that I should expect from this detoxing phase, and anything that I can do to ease the transition?
