Day 437 12/1/2014

Day 437

It's been a long time!!

Let me first apologize for taking so long to update my little blog. For a quick explanation or an excuse, what ever you want to call it. I had to downsize my company at the end of March. This meant closing 3 office locations, and laying off all but a few of my staff. As you can imagine this was a very difficult decision. I felt it was the only thing I could do if there was any chance of saving my company if that was even possible. This also meant that I would have to go back into building mode and 18 hr days. There was many factors that led to the downsizing; Obamacare, Gov. Jerry Brown, the Department of Health Care Services etc.

So to make a long story short that is what I have been doing the last 6 months or so.

On to more important stuff. Yes I am still juicing almost everyday. I have missed a few days here and there but not many. I really just don't feel good if I don't have juice. I've had to make some adjustments including juices large batches of juice and freezing it. You do loose some nutrients and flavor but its very minimal. I have also maintained a plant based vegan diet. So even though my stress level has been over the top, I still continue to feel amazing.

Something else I have done is joined a few vegan groups on Facebook to talk to other like minded people. It has been an amazing experience and I have met some really incredible people. Not to mention we have went to some truly amazing vegan restaurants. It just shows that you can eat 100% plant based meals and not sacrifice taste or flavor. I will list links to some of the them on the links tab. I think my favorite is Native Foods Cafe. Native Foods has several locations around California and a few in other states. A really close 2nd would be Sage Bistro in Culver City California. Talk about amazing! I have not tried one dish that I did not love. If you have a sweet tooth they have a huge selection of non-dairy ice cream. 

So I'm going to try and get back to blogging more often. Next entry I'm going to share my Thanksgiving experience this year and.....I have a huge announcement about Healthfest 2015. So I know its a lot to ask after such a long absence but please stay tuned!!!

A quick note. I have had a few messages from people saying they can't find my interview on the JuicingForHealth.com website. Here is the correct link. Jeff's 70-day Green Juice Clense
