    You look great! I love it :)
    You have not lived a perfect day... unless you have done something for someone who will never be able to repay you.

    PKing,

    It is good to read some success stories from the testosterone side of the fence. There are way more ladies on this forum. Nothing wrong with that, just less that is specific to guys.

    I am currently a meat protein, carb, fat eating and beer drinking 47 year old looking for some guidance. Probably never be totally RAW, but would like to bring some clean, balanced living to my body. I am currently 47, 6'2 and approximately 279 lbs with high BP regulated by prescription and high'ish cholesterol. After the rush of the holiday, I have made the commitment to... well, commit to better choices. I am looking from yourself and all that have gone down this path on how to best start, daily juice/food recommendations, etc. I have all the tools (Omega Vert 350HD and Vitamix 5200 with a BT Wildside Jar). I just need to move beyond just using once in a while, to every day. My only healthy choice today is that my breakfast and lunch consists of vegan protein/fiber shakes and gluten free snacks. But on top of this I stray. I tend to go to snack center when stress hits as well as hit bad things on weekend.

    I have become a pain ridden slug. Knees hurt, L3 back issue and no energy. If I do not do something soon, I am going to be in a world of hurt.

    Awesome to read your success and just looking for some info to help me begin my journey.

    Thanks!

    Ted

    Why wait until after the holidays?

    Start each day, now, with a green juice or green smoothie! Ü

    so true! the holidays are far away (unless you celebrate Hanukkah) - that's a lot of time to eat poorly. start now and see how you feel later in the month!
