I am totally going to do it!

Okay, so I went to the 2008 National Lapband Conference in Dallas at the beginning of the month. They had all sorts of Dr.s and speakers. The coolest thing - was a Dr. who was talking about Juice Plus. It is dried fruits and veggies in a capsule, chewable, gummie, etc. He did all sorts of illustrations and said we especially need Juice Plus since we can't eat as many fruits and veggies after being banded. I was interested, but not sold yet. EVERY Dr. that got up to speak after him, said that they too personally take Juice Plus and LOVE it, okay, so I orderd some. I and my hubby have been on in for a month.

 

I feel better - have more energy - not a huge difference, but they said it usually takes 3 months before you start to see a huge difference.

 

My hubby, on the other hand, has done a complete turnaround. He has MS, and one of the things he deals with so much is feeling down, sick and fatigued. A lot of days he doesn't get out of bed, or if he does, he never leaves his recliner. (he is 33). He rarely woke up before 11 AM. If he does something (exerts energy, like work on something outside), he is down for weeks afterwards. Let me tell you, after a month, he wakes up at 8AM every morning (no alarm), he has been working around the house, (putting up rain gutters all week). I have not seen him like this in 5 years! I can't believe it. It is like a miracle. So, I think I am going to become a distributor. I have seen first hand what this stuff can do.

 

Who know fruits and veggies were so important!

 

Wish me luck!

This is a great find. I will look for it as I prepare to move forward with my surgery. My husband was electrocuted a few yrs ago. He survived, but has never been the same since. Works a "menial" job but at least can work. But, when he's home he's always in his chair. Rarely smiles, fights depression, etc. I'm going to see if I can get him to use this also. What do we have to lose right? Thanks for the input!
