2 weeks raw




I have been on my mostly raw food diet for about 2 weeks now. So far I have lost about 8 pounds and I feel great.
The photos above are my before and after... the top one is after 2 weeks of highly raw. There is a slight difference in how I look.
I plan to be a little better with my diet for the next few weeks and see how things go.

I decided I was going to start eating some fancier raw foods and I tried a few recipes out over the weekend. You can see some of them on my website:
http://lesromack.com/RawRecipes.html

Ive got to do some work on the site and ad a few more recipes, but it works for now.

I also booked a studio to shoot my fitness videos. There should be some up on the site by the end of May. There are a few on the site now but they are not the greatest quality. http://lesromack.com/Video.html

Gotta go for now.
Here is a quick and easy recipe for raw lemon snack bars.
I bought a raw bar at Whole Foods yesterday and loved it, but I knew I could do better.
I hope you enjoy it..


1 c cashews
1 c almonds
3/4 c dates
zest 1 lemon
juice 1/2 lemon
2 TBS honey

throw it all in the food processor until its smooth and sticky
press it into a pan and throw it in the fridge for about 10 minutes to set then eat it up!

this is a great kids snack... add extra dates if you want to leave out honey
