trying to go raw BUT HUNGRY!!!

hello, i'm rather new to veganism, tho i have tried it many times in the past and always get sick with candida... so this time i'm thinking of going raw, but i have a problem with hunger, have had for years, i love the way raw food makes me feel, but after a week, i can't stand to even think about eating another apple because it doesn't even feel like food to me! i feel i need a 'lump in my stomach' something more substantial, and a piece of fruit just looks like water, or worse than water, coz water can actually make me feel not hungry for a few minutes... everyone else talks about NOT feeling hungry, and it puzzles me, i don't know what's wrong with me... i'm not worried about calories, because i can stand to lose some weight... but this hunger!! gah!! plus, i can't eat 30 bananas a day, as i have had surgery on my stomach, and i just don't have the eating capacity...

any suggestions? i can't just be a vegan, tho i find that way of eating easy.... i end up eating crackers, bread, and pasta and i get sooooo sick... plus i don't do well on poison chemicals they process food with, so this is why i'm thinking of raw, but i don't know how to do it!! help? :)
