Every once in a while, I will take in something that will educate me a little more on how to take better care of the temple that is my body. I just watched a documentary called "Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead" on Netflix recently. It's about two men whose bodies have been trashed by steroids, obesity and illness and chronicles the rigorous healing path -- including a two-month diet of fruits and vegetables (called a Reboot) -- that both attempt in a bid to rescue their health.
Both lost an amazing amount of weight, but in addition they also were able to eliminate the massive amounts of medication they had been taking for their similar illness. They basically juiced fruits and vegetables for all meals.
What?
Yep, they drank nothing but fruit and veggie juice for breakfast, lunch and dinner for a period of 60 days. The first few days, they didn't feel so well. They had headaches from caffeine withdrawal and their bodies where quickly ridding themselves of toxins.
However, the results were fantastic. Both of them were monitored by a doctor and experienced improved heart rates, blood pressure and weight loss - massive weight loss. I'm talking 200 pounds in two months. Yes, they were both obese. One, morbidly obese.
Can you imagine what would happen if you started drinking your meals? Even for a 10-day fast? What an amazing cleanse! You would probably drop a few pounds too!
Well, I just found out my husband purchased a juicer a couple of weeks ago. It's not out because we are lacking counter space. I'm thinking we should make room for it! It may be high time for a Reboot!
