What Does Everyone Eat?- I'm losing weight way too fast.

[posey]

I had my yearly physical in May this year. When weighed, I had lost 10 lbs. I had to go back to PCP last week due to problems I was having. I have lost another 12 lbs. I was at 116 lbs. then and I can feel I have lost more since then.

I know about eating only Orgnic Foods but would like some examples of what you eat. I am trying to stay away from grains for awhile (organic or processed)due to what I read about grain getting moldy when it is stored in silos and such. Therefore am eating very little meat and from grass fed cows only. However, I do have fish on Friday's, prepared at store.

Anyone who can list some organic examples of what they eat and/or how they prepare it would be greatly appreciated. I feel like I'm shriveling up, malnourished and starving to death.

Thanks for any input.

posey---
what about beans (organic, of course!)? that seems like a way to add good calories. you could make or buy some fresh salsa, add an avocado (again, good for you, but high in fat and calories) and eat it without the chips. i add organic tortilla chips, but it's yummy all by itself.

also---nuts and seeds. now, i know that there can be mold issues there. but those natural fruit and vegetable washes that you get in the produce section say they remove mold spores. i've been eating a lot of pumpkin seeds that i roast and salt in the oven.

i get on food jags---right now, i'm eating a lot of BLT's with avocado, Veganaise (a delicious organic mayo), and heirloom tomatoes. It's less expensive than buying a grassfed steak---which i still do occasionally. grassfed ground hamburger is relatively inexpensive---i eat a lot of hamburgers! i add some gluten free soy sauce and it makes them taste even richer and more tasty. again---this is something you could eat without a grain.

there must be some kind of organic protein supplement out there---i drink a brand called "pure protein" that i get at trader joes, but it's not organic.

if you can, i'd try to eat bigger portions---maybe working up to it slowly. i know from the other end of the spectrum (trying to lose weight) that when you're eating less, after a time, it becomes uncomfortable to eat more.

in general, i would look for ways to add healthy calories. Oils could be another way---olive or coconut.

do you exercise at all, posey? lifting weights could increase your mass and maybe help boost your appetite, too. i don't lift weights now, but when i did so in the past, i remember being hungry all the time!
