Can you eat a raw food diet and NOT lose weight?

I'm 92lbs and my weight is always stable. Recently I've discovered a raw food diet and I felt unbelievably good after staying on it for 3 days, that I want to incorporate it into my normal diet (pescitarian). I'm just worried that I might lose weight on it, which I can't really afford to do.

    If you eat the same amount of calories, it should be stable. Taking in lots of raw nuts, which I understand to be raw food's main source of protein, have lots of fat too.

    Are you going to keep eating milk and the like? (I dunno it its considered raw... sorry :))

    Fruits and nuts are an important part of the raw food diet and are both good sources of calories. If you eat the same number of calories as before you would maintain your weight.
