Let's see. I've been Vegan for almost a year now. I chose to take responsibility for my body and mind after my father died of pancreatic cancer. I want to keep disease at bay and decided to choose a healthier way to live. I lost about 20 lbs changing my diet, hit a plateau. A friend suggested juice feasting. I've been on juice feast since January 4, 2008. I'm down 30 lbs and feel amazing. I plan to break my feast on March 1, 2008. Juicing is now part of my life. I look forward to an improved relationship with food and plan to live raw moving forward. I can't wait to start this next chapter of my life. Thank you David and Katrina Rainoshek!
