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).
I weighed ~280 pounds in September 2009 and my wife was ~5 months pregnant. I did not want to be an overweight/out of shape/unhealthy father, nor did I want my daughter to grow up unhealthy. Since I did not grow up overweight and I had just finished a master of science degree in entomology (nutrition of mosquito larvae), I knew I could figure things out and correct what I had done to myself.
Thankfully, I have figured things out quickly enough so that my daughter (now over 24 months old) is vegan, not vaccinated and still fed breast milk 3 times daily.
Fast forward ~20 months, I now weigh just over 190 pounds and have been eating 811 since 7 April 2011 (went vegan some time in March), although I had plenty of raw vegan 811 days under my belt since the beginning of the year.
Somewhere in there (late 2010), I found Harley's videos on youtube. He has helped me break through the conditioning I have undergone for over 30 years. The biggest tips I have learned are to start the day with 1+ liters of water, consume 10g of carbohydrates per kg of body weight and never restrict Calorie intake.
