Profile Information

About Me:
I am a happily married father of two kids (18 & 14) who has somehow ballooned to more than a quarter ton in weight.
What kind of life shifts/transformations are you looking to have with Juice Feasting?
Actually I am not juice feasting to lose weight (although I hope to), but rather to feel better. Actually, I do feel better. Much better. I am on day 5 and feel amazing. Up until day 4 I felt like death on two legs. I couldn't stand for more than a minute (today I stood for an hour making juice!) and ached all over. I needed about 12 hours of sleep a day. I don't think I was "sick" per say, like I had a cold of flu or something. My diet had just caught up to me. My sister and mom are juice feasters, so I knew I would like to try it someday. Well, that day came sooner than I thought when my health got critical. Another thing is that I have a toe which has an odd, unnatural pain in it. When I mentioned it to my wife, she said it could be a sign of diabetes approaching. Uh uh. No thank you. So, here I am.
Relationship Status:
Married
Where are you on the dietary spectrum?
Standard American (SAD)
Interests (Beyond Nutrition)
Books, organic gardening (one day I will actually get my hands dirty too), nutrition (I actually am very knowledgeable about nutrition, but until recently it was more like "do as I say, not as I do".
Favorite Books
The Revolution, A Manifesto by Ron Paul - 1984, by George Orwell - Blowback, by Chalmers Johnson - Anything by Charles Dickens or John Irving.
Favorite Quote
Every temporary defeat bring with it the seed of an equal or greater opportunity.
Excellent Films
King Corn, Food Matters, America: Freedom to Fascism, Iraq for Sale, the Illusionist, many more.

You are amazing. I am so glad you are JFing with me, as I am starting again. You will definitely drop a LOT of weight on this program, and you will begin to feel more energy every day. I LOVE YOU YOUR ATTITUDE!

Not only will your toe feel better, but you will feel better all over. When I was juice feaster earlier in March, my legs really changed, my ankles became slimmer, and all sorts of positive changes happened all over my body. It is exciting to see the changes, and so my crystal ball predicts that you will see and feel MANY changes .... and will need to change your "handle" before too long.

This is definitely a path of "loving yourself enough to ...." (juice mass quanitites, make sure you have enough produce, take your superfoods, etc.) as Gabriel Cousins says, so welcome to the love fest! XOXOXO

Greetings and welcome,
You are so blessed to have a mom and sister who juice feast. Have you ever tried a plant based diet before?

Not feeling called to do a full Juice Feast? That's ok, neither am I. David Rain suggested I do a Modified Juice Feast based on certain aspects of my health and life. You don't have to follow any particular plan to do a Modified Juice Feast.

There are many reasons why people are overweight – stress, lack of exercise, lack of knowledge concerning correct nutrition, over-worked, laziness etc. But I believe one of the most potent reasons for overeating is emotions. It is a well-known fac...
