After a serious health diagnosis, I was faced with adopting sweeping lifestyle changes. I needed to find ways to eat a satisfying diet while eliminating processed junk foods and sugar.
This concept was completely new to me. How could I make long term adjustments to my lifestyle without being plagued by cravings? I researched my options and buried myself in Googled recipes and cookbooks. All things pointed to shifting my diet to include eating mostly raw foods. This diet shift seemed like the way to regain my health and lose weight in the process.
I began to experiment with recipes and found that there was no need to count calories. Whatever I prepared, however much I ate, I lost weight. Plus, by eliminating dairy products and processed junk foods, some of the old nagging ailments with which I had been plagued disappeared. I no longer suffered from constant nasal congestion that had been ever present since childhood. Also, so many of the migraine headaches with which I struggled on a regular basis were gone. I felt great. My brain felt crisper and the brain fog that had been ever-lurking had lifted.
I was delighted with the way I felt. It became easy to lose weight, which had not been the case since I was a teenager! Incredibly, I was not suffering from cravings for those harmful foods that I left behind. This felt good. This was healthy weight loss food at its best.
There was only one problem, the preparation! A plan with only basic raw foods like sprouts, veggies and fruits just was not realistic. In order to prepare the gourmet type of raw food that would make the lifestyle doable, I had to spend hours every day. I just didn’t have the time to devote to preparation each day.
I had to find a way to incorporate the elimination of processed foods, refined white sugar, and refined white carbohydrates into my life. My new diet was very “clean” and it had to stay that way. My health depended on it.
Still searching, I tried a vegan diet. A regime that eliminates all animal products was much easier to incorporate into my lifestyle. Plus, I could cook and prepare quick and easy recipes that are healthy and delicious in a reasonable amount of time.
It became clear that a combination of the raw and vegan lifestyles is the answer for me. Clean food that could be cooked became the answer.
By making these eliminations and replacing them with good healthy food choices melted 50 pounds from my body. At this point, I am in better shape than 10 years ago. My energy level and stamina have improved greatly. My health has turned around.
It is easy to identify healthy weight loss food. Foods that come straight from nature are the key to good health. If you eliminate processed junk foods and refined white foods, the weight will dissolve – no ifs, ands, or big butts!

To me healthy dieting, intake of weight loss food reinforces correct selection of recipes and meal preparation formula. It is really important that you focus on every component of your breakfast, appetizers, salads, entrees, side dishes, snacks, soups, vegetables etc. to continue long term natural weight loosing activities. Also emphasize on water, tea, coffee making procedures to stay hydrated and refreshed. By far these are some of the food habits and practices; I took up while undergoing diabetes and foot pain last year. Yes, the first thing for me to avoid was processed junk foods and dietary products to get rid of unnecessary fats.
