I received a few emails asking me if fasting on juice or water will put people in starvation mode and therefore after the fast, will they regain all the weight back and gain more? If done correctly, No!! The first thing I want to emphasize is that unless you are doing a water fast for a real long time and have very little body fat, you actually can’t put yourself in starvation mode. As for slowing the metabolism when fasting, yes the fasting does slow your metabolism, put its not permanent, once you re-introducing solid  food correctly into your diet, your metabolism will start increasing and get back to normal. Many people have notice the great benefit of fasting is that it decreases their appetite and they become much more conscious of what and how much they are eating. I have so many clients that after a fast, actually continue losing weight because they don’t need to be eating as much as they did before!

The 10 Day Juice Fasting Program starts next week, February 1!!! This is perfect for anyone that has never done a juice fast before and even for experienced fasters. Alog with getting Online support on the Private Juice Fasting Forum, every day of the 10 Day Juice Fast I post videos specifically to guide you through the fast to ensure that you do everything properly and have motivation to continue through successfully. Once you sign up, you also recieve a menu planner on what to eat before the fast and also a 3 day menu planner on how to break the fast. Everything is taken care of for your success.

I received an email last week asking me how we can avoid gaining weight as we age. The person who wrote me is about to turn 30 and she’s been told that after 30, people gain weight… I myself have heard this many many many times. I can’t tell you how many articles I’ve read on the subject of gaining weight as we age.

I’ve also done quite a bit of research on senior citizens who take up body building and competitive sports later in life. You have to see them, a lot of them are in better shape than most 20 year olds!! Many of them appear 20-30 years younger than they really are!!

My conclusion– yes, we can gain weight as we age, especially if we eat more and move less, but we can also be the exception, we can choose to have the most incredibly hot body at any age– it’s your choice!!
