I am in a high-stress time in my life. I own a retail business with 4 other partners, my husband and I also own and manage several rental properties, I have two small children and a small "farm" at home to run. I don't eat healthy, I eat whatever is easy. I am about 50lbs from my ideal weight and I don't ever feel that great...random ailments along the way and it seems like I am always the one in the family to have stomach issues.
I watched this documentary, Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead a month ago and have shared it with several friends who are excited and most are willing to try it. It takes you through the story of two men and a women doing a juice fast and their amazing results. This was just something I happened upon while searching documentaries on NetFlix one night.
I have decided to start, Friday, Aug 5th. That would be tomorrow!
There is more than one program to follow, and I am not sure which one I will do. I have to sit down and review the different options and make up my mind tonight.
I am excited and nervous to do this, but I truly feel that I can do ANYTHING for 10 days (or 15 for that matter). I keep telling myself that it isn't the end of my life and I can eat again if that is my choice, but I am hoping that I don't choose to go back to my current eating habits!
My husband bought a kick-ass juicer and I am hoping that my husband will join me, he really wants to, but the timing has to be right for him...so if not, I will still do it and it will be fine. This is something I am going to do for me and I think it will help me stay healthy and add years to my life.
Veggies and Fruit, here I come!
