been doing this thing for 9 and a half years.. still going strong..
I ate a frugivorous diet for 6 years, 80/10/10 style.. but for the last 3 and a half years I've been including steamed vegetables.. I do this because I find Dr Michael Greger's work at NutritionFacts.org just too compelling to ignore. For anyone who doesn't know his work, he simply presents the newest nutritional journal articles.
I design my eating habits around hitting 84/8/8, I find any more or less fat and I get dry skin and slow digestion, 8% is just right.
General food diary:
Fruits: Figs, pineapples or grapes, or sometimes kiwi's
Vegetables: Broccoli, kale, and spinach, beetroot, turnip, summer squash, sprout flowers, swede, courgette, carrot, garlic, and I also indulge in some sprouted bread and rolled oats.
And I eat half a walnut and 3-4 tsp linseed with every meal, plus one or two brazil nuts once a day. My omega 3:6 ratio is at about 1:1, which I find is best for keeping me mentally happy.
I'm lucky if I hit 2500 kcal's.. all the low calorie vegetables make it hard to get in anymore calories.
i take a supplement of iodine, b12, d3 and omega-3 driver from micro-algae.
For exercise I don't do much at the moment. Generally I walk 20,000-30,000 steps a day.

Your words make sense, I am also doing this all alone, for the past couple of months. I know to much to go back to the "norm".
Peace, I hope to meet a few fellow fruit eaters before my days are out. I hope you find someone to enjoy life with.

Hey Gareth, I am looking for something inspiring every morning on the web. Today I found you post and it motivates me to keep on going my 811 journey. Today afternoon I will go the market with some 811friends and I will make sure that we will share some watermelon or another kind of fruit. I hope you will make it through the 811 Festival in Spain: http://www.811-friendly.net/festival.php?lang=en
Hi Gareth!! I loved your latest post! Brutal honesty as to the struggles and rewards of this lifestyle! Also good to see that you enjoy the teachings of Eckhart Tolle....listening to his audiobooks (with his gentle voice reading his own words) helps to calm and center me.
