Hi Carla,
I am really trying to switch my diet around. I’ve always enjoyed eating healthy, but perhaps *too* much of it. Fruits make me happy so when I saw your page “Fruit Til 5”, it clicked: “Oh yay!! Something I can definitely do!”. Do you have a book/booklet on this? i’d love to purchase 🙂 Also, I am trying to figure out the proportions here… 80/10/10. I am trying to lose 25lbs, and trying to get in about 1200-1400 daily calories. so I would need 120-140 grams of fat? it seems like a lot to me, I try to avoid it at all cost. By avoiding it, I may have created a problem… Can you please tell me what type of protein you usually incorporate in your 10%? I usually have a nice salad at night, but i don’t eat meat, but my neighbor has happy free roaming hens and happily give me their eggs. They are out of this world… And that is what I top my salad with and vegan cheese. I know I can do better…
Hi Amey, My Fruit Til Five™ plan is now available in my free Vegan Key™ program. To fully understand the 80/10/10 approach I would read Dr. Douglas Graham’s book titled 80/10/10. He goes into deep detail there more so than I can sum up here. I am fully vegan and eat whole plant foods so all my protein comes from sources like veggies, legumes, grains, nuts, and seeds. I avoid processed foods like store-bought vegan cheeses. Since you are looking to lose weight, I would also recommend Dr. Michael Greger’s book How Not to Diet. He has the best researched methods in his books. Best wishes!
