I'm a morbidly obese American male that was slowly headed towards an early death. I had an epiphany in early March 2016 and made a choice to change my life. Researching different health plans and lifestyles led me to Youtube and then to Freelee's and Harley's videos. I had also read Dr. Gabriel Cousens book on Raw food vegan diets and saw Dr. Neal Barnards Tedx talk on high carb lo- fat diets and they all seemed to mesh together. I took the best of all of the information I collected and came up with a plan. As of today (April 22, 2016) I've lost 50 lbs in 6 weeks, cut my insulin dependency by 2/3's and lowered my blood pressure by 35 points! My ultimate goal is to become completely vegan and free myself of all medications that I'm currently taking. I also want to reach a goal weight of around 220 lbs. (I'm a heavy framed 6'3") and to become an active cyclist, hiker and kayaker.

Please tell us about your dietary inclinations:
I really want to be HCRV and just need some guidance
Are you Connected?
well It's complicated
My favourite books/movies/authors/pastimes are...
Too many authors and books to list. I'm a voracious reader and read lots of different genres. I like action and comedy movies. I enjoy old muscle cars, riding my Harleys (not related ;-)) and look forward to doing a lot of hiking and cycling.
The Frugivore started this site to bring together frugivores across the Globe! Let us know what high fruit assistance do you need?
I really need some guidance on diet planning, sources of protein and how to completely free myself of animal products and dairy. I'm also a little concerned about the expense of all of the fruit and vegetables required to eat the amount of recommended calories per day.
The Frugivore Diet is a fruit-based vegan internet community which promotes a high carb fruit based vegan lifestyle free of any animal products. Our forum does not tolerate encouragement of anything contrary to this. Nor do we allow endorsement of non-vegan items or practises which involve the imprisonment, exploitation, abuse or murder of sentient beings. We also require our members to post with proper netiquette. Therefore, please indicate your intention:
I will comply because we are The Borg and resistance is fruitile
