Our community would be delighted to know you better. Please tell us more about yourself and what brought you to the Frugivore Diet. Detailed responses will only be accepted (feel free to reapply with more detail if at first not approved as a member).

17 years old, turned vegan Feb 2013, have been 801010 since 21st Sept 2013. I weighed 88 kilos when I was 15 years old, through lifestyle change I lost 24 kilos in two years. This got me interested in health and wellbeing. After becoming vegan I lost a further 7 kilos. I considered myself healthy but kept feeling sluggish all of the time. I came across some videos of Bananiac in YouTube, and through him I came across Freelee and Durianrider, within three days I watched all of their videos and I'm half way through the 801010 book. I also watched heaps of videos of other HCLFRV on YouTube. I did the transition overnight because I felt incredibly informed and could not wait to feel better and do greater for the planet. I felt quite alone being a vegan since everyone thought that I was crazy and that I was silly to think that I could save an animal's life by simply not consuming it. Now that I'm raw, I still haven't told anyone, I will wait for people to realize by themselves, I realized that if I don't make a big deal out of it to others they will see that I'm not crazy and that this lifestyle really does work. And since I felt lonely being a vegan, I feel even more alone being raw since it isn't a mainstream lifestyle and something that I can talk to everybody about so freely without feeling judged. So I decided to join 30BaD to hopefully meet some bubbly fruitbats which I can talk to and tell everyone how great I feel in this lifestyle. :)

The Frugivore started this site to bring together frugivores across the Globe! Let us know what high fruit assistance do you need?

Currently struggling to fit a large amount of food during the day, therefore consuming a large amount of dates/dried figs/dried fruits after my vegetable-filled dinner. I feel as if I consume too much sweetness during the day (possibly due to the large amount of dates I eat! haha) and so I find myself longing for the vegetable meal to even out the sweetness, but then I crave sweet things again, I then consume a whole heap of dates and feel as if I'm failing.

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 I like totally agree with all this
