Okay so I got into raw food a while back and i love raw food but i got into the Whole eat as much fruit as you want. and lose the weight it may take 2 years but you will do it n it just takes time If you look up videos Like the banana girl. or getyourfruiton they do eat as much calories as they want and are very fit but it took them a long time to get that way. But for me i actually gained weight and i felt like my whole life was about food know im not dissing freelea. or anyone in the raw food movement I think Its yay if they got to their goals that way but People iv talked to who have lost 100 pounds more than that Have counted their calories and been in a calorie restriction even on youtube videos and its just what we have always known to do that but if we can eat as much fruit as we want Than how come the people actually losing weight fast and more than 100 pounds why isnt everyone doing that. I actually thought i could eat as much as i wanted and still lose weight...... Please comment what do you think about this.

Sorry, but I'm confuesed(confused) too! I couldn't even follow what you were trying to say!0

You may or may not be able to lose weight while eating "all you want", it all depends on how much you want. If the amount you want is causing you to gain, logging your food and controlling portions might be helpful.0

IN THE RAW food Community They recommended 4000 plus calories for steady weightloss0

I have seen those. There are better ways of getting healthy. A balanced diet with exersise will do wonders. What you may not understand is they workout an insane amount as well.0

You've been here for a long time. Just count calories accurately. Stop looking for alternatives.0

Here's something to think about:
Since just January, I lost about 20 pounds counting calories and working out. Then I've put on several pounds, much of it muscle, in the past few months by counting calories and working out.
While you're bouncing from fad to fad, the people who are following the MFP way are having tons of success.0 -
Eating 4000 calories worth of fruit will have the same effect on your weight as eating 4000 calories worth of bacon. It just won't taste as good.0

Are you telling me I can eat 4000 calories worth of bacon everyday and lose weight?
If so....
@OP: Calories are calories and IIFYM... log everything... measure twice cut once... you may be surprised how much you can actually eat and still be in a deficit, especially if you've gotten used to filling up on veggies. Only veggies I eat are on a pizza or in a pasta or next to something really tasty.
