You’ve seen Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead (if you haven’t watch it here for free.) Now you’re ready to do what Joe did. Here’s our checklist to get you started and on your way to weight loss and health!
What is a Reboot?
A period of time where you commit to drinking and eating only fruits and vegetables, herbal teas and water in order to regain or sustain your vitality, lose weight and kick-start healthy habits that recharge your body and get your diet back in alignment for optimal wellness. Find out more about the benefits of a Reboot.
Is a Reboot for everyone?
Rebooting is for almost everyone with a few exceptions. Please don’t attempt a Reboot if you are pregnant or nursing, under 18 or have a severe medical condition. Check with your doctor if you are unsure. If you are currently on medication, ask your doctor before starting this or any diet program.
1. Pick a Plan
If you want supervision, personal attention, encouragement and motivation, our Guided Reboot Programs offer 15-, 30-, and 60-day online programs, conducted in small groups supervised by your own certified nutritionist and Reboot coach.
We also offer plenty of tools to help you Reboot on your own, including books, apps, helpful articles and recipes, and two free downloadable plans.
2. Get Your Questions Answered
Juice or smoothie? How should I navigate social events? Can I chew gum? Check out our Frequently Asked Questions for answers.
You can also ask questions on our Facebook page or on Twitter.
3. Get Support
An extended Reboot can be hard but you don’t need to do it alone. We have a great community of fellow Rebooters who will support you on your Reboot. They know what it’s like and share knowledge and support. Readers also share challenges and success stories on our terrific Facebook page.
For professional support, sign up for a Guided Reboot, a Reboot diet program undertaken with the supervision of one of our nutritionist-coaches and the support of a small circle of fellow Rebooters.
4. Get a Juicer
With the wide variety of juicers on the market today, it can be challenging to decide which one is best for you. We’ve created a Juicer Buying Guide to make finding the best juicer for your needs simple.
But you don’t have to buy a juicer. Chances are, you’ve got a friend who has one sitting in a closet. Just ask around. See “Save Money on a Juicer.”
5. Juice Like a Pro
Are you new to juicing? Download our free Rebooting 101 e-magazine. Not sure if you should peel the lemon, throw in the whole apple? Find out how to prepare your fruits and vegetables for juicing in our A – Z Produce Prep Guide.
6. Get Inspired
Perfect for before, during and after your Reboot, the Reboot with Joe Recipe Book features over 70 of Joe’s favorite Reboot-friendly recipes he relies on to stay well, strong and happy. Keep it in your kitchen for quick and easy access to the healthiest juices, smoothies, salads, soups, snacks, veggie dishes and more. (You can also find tons of great recipes on our site.
7. Get Moving
Just because you are on a Reboot doesn’t mean that you have to stop your regular exercise routine. Nor does it mean that you have to start one either. However, we strongly believe that fitness is an important component of a healthy, happy, and vibrant life, and key to helping you maintain your weight loss. So fill up on those fruits and veggies, get off the couch, get your heart rate up (it only takes 20 minutes) and get moving! Check out our fitness plans.
8. Share Your Success
Congratulations. You’ve done it! The plant-powered energy you’ve been consuming during your Reboot has given you the mental and physical awareness to leave the junk foods behind and live a healthy, vibrant life. You deserve to share your success and help inspire others on their Reboot. Share your story with the Reboot community.
