When I saw it with my family they were pretty horrified by most of it, haha! I must admit, when my friend made a short film about Freeganism I couldn't tell if it was a serious thing or not, it was just a whole different concept. But it really expanded my mind. Right now I'm vegan and I've tried to eat as much raw food as possible, but I enjoy non-raw foods a bit too much.<br /><br />I've been on weight watchers too, it worked for me but it didn't change my horrible love/hate relationship with food. If you're still trying to lose weight, I don't know how old this post is, try replacing a few meat meals a week with vegan/veggie alternatives. Vegan burgers, vegan dairy products, etc. taste pretty good and have SO MUCH LESS fat and calories. You don't have to go completely in one diet or lifestyle, but pick and choose what works for you.<br /><br />Honestly, daily exercise is really a big factor. Simple walking is really god.JC GONZOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10048878778782338877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2279667973137452461.post-79323068657882593632009-08-29T07:49:25.589-07:002009-08-29T07:49:25.589-07:00I saw a program about the Freegans where one guy&#...I saw a program about the Freegans where one guy's sister was reluctant to try the foods that they found. I'm not sure if I can do it either but the food looked good.~Sheila~https://www.blogger.com/profile/14141660556692992334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2279667973137452461.post-25326388326096704172009-08-26T08:44:39.871-07:002009-08-26T08:44:39.871-07:00Julie, I did the raw thing for a while, I did drop...Julie, I did the raw thing for a while, I did drop a few pounds and I felt great.<br />It was just REALLY hard. I didn't buy a bunch of mixes to make shakes with I just made "swap smoothies" as my 5 year old named them with spinach, apple, carrot, blueberries<br /><br />To do raw you pretty much have to go vegan because animal products need to be cooked. <br /><br />I finally snapped when my daughter made chocolate chip cookies, after a month or so of nothing but veggies I was ready to kill for chocolate LOL!Carinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06420692615632906445noreply@blogger.com
