3000 cals for female, still hungry! Do i need to eat more?

Posted by Lil Green Coconut on July 20, 2014 at 1:56am in Main Chat

Iv been on this life style for nearly 10months, more raw till 4. Im doing fully raw now and am eating about 3000 calories a day. I exercise about three to four times a week doing cardio and weights at the gym for an hour or more, i also work walking dogs three days a week. I am active with charities, run my own business and study at university as well so quite a busy life. I am finding am still hungry in the evening and really hungry when i wake up.

It is important to me to fix my metabolic damage and to lose weight healthily.

My question is do i need to eat more or is it ok to stay were I'm at in regards to calorie intake?

    At that activity level I'd try a minimum of 4000 and see how you feel.   As others say, if hungry eat more.

    A.  How do i know im not eating enough calories from fruit?

    1. Other food starts to look and smell good.

    2. Cooked food looks more then the second rate option it really is.
    3. Your energy, power, strength start to go downhill.
    4. Your attitude starts to suck. You just want to rip apart people and scream at them with frustration.
    5. You start to question this whole raw gig.
    6. You get cravings during the day and evening.
    7. You start to rely on discipline to keep you raw.
    8. You start to make raw pasta dishes, raw cakes etc.
    9. You start to question if we really need to exercise.
    10. Your so thin and weak that your athletic friends start to get concerned.
    11. You start to question veganism.
    12. You start blending maccadamias with dulse and spread it on 1inch thick flax crackers you made at 3am in the morning.
    13. You wake up at night and steal your housemates fruit. If your housemate is called banana guns and he told you not to eat the papaya, and you did, you aint eating enough fruit cals.
    14. You start to want to take fancy herbs and experiement with other diets.
    15. Your actually eating pizza and reading this.
    16. Youve got some Fred Bisci Enzymes in your pocket and your ready to try the 'all raw but 20% cooked rule'
    17. You want to believe that Brian Clement is right when he says corn chips are better than fruit. 
    18. You just paid aajonus vonderplanitz 400$ for a one hour consult and he told you to put an egg on a window edge for 50 days until its putrid and then to eat it. and you did it. you saw your dog eat some animal poo and you tried it too. ( true story i just heard).
    19. You just cant sleep!! you are approaching insomniac.

    If you're hungry, eat more :)  You just can't eat too much of whole, fresh, ripe, raw, organic fruit.

    If you're hungry, eat more. Simple as that, no restriction. :) Plus you sound acctually quite active, so I'd say you could try upping your intake to 3500 or so, and see how you feel!
