You Need an Example? Well, I’ll give you one!

It’s February 11th as I type today’s entry. I have less than two month till my bestest-best friend in the whole ENTIRE world, or Bestie if you will, gets married to the love of his life…


This also means that I have less than two months to look FABULOUS in my bridesmaid dress. Ok, more like about half a month before I have my first scheduled fitting for the dress I want to look fabulous in.
This is the dress, but in purple...I look hot in purple, no lie, no lie!

The past year + has been a mess. My Mom’s health has been failing (which I plan on writing more about at a later date), I’ve been a neglectful blogger [SORRY :( ], I had to have surgery on a torn meniscus in my knee, and I’ve struggled with continuously dropping 10 pounds and gaining it back a couple of weeks later. Right now, I’m holding strong at 242-ish pounds.

Not the heaviest I’ve been, but far from where I was two years ago.
Me in my workout gear. Not bad...but still needs work.

A non-workout pic. I know...look at them boobies :)

Over the last couple of months, I watched (and re-watched) two amazing documentaries: “Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead” and “Hungry for Change

And I couldn’t help but think, “Does that really work? Does juicing and fasting really completely reboot your system?”

Well, starting February 16th, 2013, I’M GOING TO FIND OUT!!!

I’ve invested in a great Breville juicer, been practicing my juicing skills, and downloaded the 15 day fasting schedule from RebootWithJoe.com. This Friday is my shopping day (and PAYDAY HOLLA!!!).

To give you an idea of how my juicing journey is going, I will be providing you with DAILY (D.A.I.L.Y) video sessions on my YouTube page: http://www.youtube.com/RainmakerRoxy

Feel free to check out my old vlogs while you’re there.

My goal in all of this is not just to look good, but to feel healthy, BE healthy, and be the person I always knew I could be.

Life begins NOW!!!

Your Buddy,
Roxy

PS. Your assignment for this week is to follow Joe Cross from "Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead" on Twitter @JoeTheJuicer. He's kind of amazing!

  2. YAY! I'm always impressed about your commitment to these races. I'm actually considering doing another half for the CCFA. This time in Nashville so I can also visit the twins, Cece and Helen, but the fundraising part will be hard to fit into my life right now. I've got till June-ish to decide.

    I'll try to visit the Cleveland Marathon and cheer you on :)

    Do you usually workout at a gym or outdoors?
