I started juicing and running just over 3 years ago.
That was before Joe Cross and Fat, Sick and Nearly Dear. Or Kris Karr with her sexy crazy diet which includes juicing. Phil Staples was still trucking along the highways of the USA.
It was a lonely and tough time.
Mainly because of friends who meant well but were ignorant. They labelled juicing a ‘fad’ diet and thought it was dangerous for me.
I actually tried juicing in the summer of 2008. I bought all the equipment, the supplements etc but those friends kept telling me it was dangerous and 3 days into a fast I gave up.
In 2010 I had committed to really trying my hardest to lose weight. I was so overweight that it was affecting my health and my career. I was able to complete a 7 day fast – run 3 miles non stop and my life was changed for good.
One of the key strategies that really helped me was reading about other people’s success stories. Those who had succeeded in losing the weight and keeping it off.
Maybe you have just started a juice cleanse and need inspiration. Then read some of these success stories and your will power should be strengthened. Juicing really works and let these folk show you how.
