Hey guys Ruby here with my first weight loss vlog! After watching the film Fat Sick and Nearly Dead and doing some research Yvette and I decided to start doing the 60 day juice fast. It will be extremely hard but we are looking forward to the results. I'm not sure if Yvette is going to vlog with me from time to time but we will keep you guys updated.
The 60 day juice fast is a way to reboot your body, detox all the junk out and just becoming a better you. With the reboot you get a more centered mind and get the taste of good food again. Now these are all claims that the film makes so I wanted to give you guys a 100% honest experience of what these next 60 days will be like. I have read both sides of juicing and blending. It makes sense to me that all the "good stuff" gets taken away with juicing so I am taking up my mom's offer to buy a Nutribullet. She mentioned it on my first day of my fast but I wanted to juice like in the film. I will hopefully review the Nutribullet in an upcoming video.
In addition to all I said in my first vlog I wanted to write out the ingredients and what their benefits are. Down below you will find pictures along with those benefits. Please don't hesistate to correct me if I'm wrong on anything. Thank you so much for watching, reading, and I hope that you can come along with me on this long journey to become healthy and happy. :)
