  • Why are you gaining weight if you eat raw?

  • Wow!!!... this video hit home with me on so manty levels. I thought I was the only one that was afraid of losing it all when they reach their full potential...WOW... now i know i must go on a juice feast... had been contemplating it for the last couple of days and this video is proof that i am choosing to do it.( if that makes sense) Thank you on so many levels

  • I lost 20 pounds in two months, was left feeling healthy amazing and so full of energry. When i started to see the changes and people started saying i looked great, i got scared, started eating junk again and im now 20lbs heavier. Im going to start raw foods tomorrow and whenever i feel like damaging the progress im going to watch this video. Thanks Natasha, honestly thank you x

  • Excellent

  • Yes i know this sounds a bit wierd but really iam making videos about how to manage time and be more successful i would like you if you don't mind to give me your experince in time management :) check out my channel and give me your feedback thanks alot :)

  • Great video! I need to try this out.

  • Great video. I look forward to seeing more from you.

  • Wow...I am in a down mood right now...actually have been though so many ups and downs during the last weeks and I am asking myself why. The thought about being afraid of reaching my potential and sabotaging myself has crossed my mind before but you helped me to realize now that I really need to address this.

  • How do you get protein into your diet when you're doing a juice feast? That's the one thing I'm worried about is not getting enough protein going on a juice feast. Especially if I'm going to be working out which I want to do.

  • maybe you did lose some body fat/ put on some mucle and the scale didn't tell you :)

  • @pinkbunny2nite you only gain 5lbs of muscle a year if your actually consistently working for it. she lost water and muscle. probably not much fat.

  • damn it is so true. Always wanting to self sabotage right at the cusp of reaching a goal.

  • "I create my reality" Love it!

  • I'm sorry but I genuinely feel that you need to follow simple logic to lose weight. Exercise more and eat less calories, proportionally. Starve diets are bad for your body, mind and spirit. Please, if you do a juice fast make sure you are still getting enough calories and staying active. This way you get the detoxing/cleansing effects, but you aren't starving or depriving yourself emotionally or physically. 

  • Thank you so much Natasha- You are so transparent about your life and so right on- I know exactly what you are talking about. Thank you for being so simple and yet so truthful. You are such a sweetheart!

  • do most people lose weight if they already eat all raw and already don't have hardly any body fat?...this might be your case. you eat so healthy and get enough exercise, you don't have a lot more weight to lose....just wondering?

  • I feel like I'm working through something so similar! The fear of perfection is such a crazy thing to realize! Like we will have nothing to live for anymore... Anyways I am transitioning into raw foods now and appreciate your videos so much! Thanks!

  • @andistepoutside

    The "fear of perfection"? The illusion of perfection seems more apt!

    The most uncomfortable part of this video was Natasha's analysis of her fear of perfection. The problem is not that you fear it; it is that you think it exists. You are creating a lot of angst and negative emotions if you pursue the idea that you can in fact be perfect. Even sadder, you seem to think that you would be perfect if you were thinner. Your body is not the most important thing about you.

  • @2mkuhn I don't think that is what was meant by 'perfection'. Not superficial perfection, but striving for your best possible self, inside and out. Smile. Don't be a hater:)

  • you don't lose weight because you're body is in starvation mode. fasting of any kind isn't healthy because it forces your body to cope with the stress and find it's own way of holding on to your health while you're too busy dragging it through the shit and constant malnourishment. You're not healthy. You don't look healthy in this video. You're not balancing a healthy diet with constructive exercise. You are doing so many things wrong that it hurts me to watch this.

  • @leviwebb2 That is not fact, that is just the opinion of some doctors. There are many doctors that support fasting. Fasting is also something that has been practiced across the world for thousands of years as a method of healing the body. There are many books out there on fasting. If you're so sure you are right, you shouldn't be afraid to at least read some books on fasting to educate yourself more about this topic. I have fasted many times before and always lose a lot of weight doing so.

  • @ceruleana1 you don't have any idea what you're talking about. And when something has been practiced for thousands of years, it's culturally acknowledged as good practice, not medicinally. Female genital mutilation has been practiced in Africa asia and the middle east since before chrisitanity but I doubt your running out to get that done. It's also ignorant of you to assume I haven't spent countless hours researching these things before posting harsh comments on the subject.

  • @ceruleana1 ohh my god my brain is going to explode because your comment is that stupid. your body begin taking away from your muscles before it even bothers going for fat. you feel lighter because you're losing significant portions of muscle and water, because most of muscle is comprised of water. when in starvation mode your body has reorganize it's priorities with what it has to work with. It's like when you get cold and your body starts to circulation to your outer extremeties

  • @ceruleana1 luckily your body is smarter than you are. You're only able to survive long periods of fasting because you're body knows how to distribute what it has. It is NOT in the way that you'd like. You lose so much more muscle than fat. I read a study just last night in relation to skin excess after weight loss that in itself mentioned exactly what I said before. Balance your bloody diet, cardio if you want, and weight training to get your body fat % down. Otherwise your an asshole.

  • @ceruleana1 no doctor in his right mind will recommend any period of starvation to a perfectly healthy individual. What I will give you, there is a feeling of euphoria that comes with long periods of starvation, I've been there, in war. It's a very spiritual experience that can last as long as your not getting what you need. Unfortunately that's how your body helps your brain cope with the stress and pain. Just like shock is a result of traumatic injury and blood loss. It has to shut down.

  • @ceruleana1 Like i mentioned about cultural acknowledgment, your book reading, video watching, starvation practice, clothes style, and intonation are all aspects of what you perceive to be your culture; although you were likely raised in as much of a commercial shit hole as I was. Your holier than though historically spiritual venture into weight loss isn't changing the world, it's only beating the hell out of your already rotten insides. Balance diet, constructive exercise, and patience.

  • @ceruleana1 Sorry about all the spelling errors. I just woke up and overlooked proof reading.

  • @leviwebb2 you have a lot to learn, so we'll cut you some slack. :)

  • @frustratedoperator I don't want to lie to you, I know exactly what I'm talking about. Losing weight is as simple as calories in and calories out. Don't be stupid.

  • Thanks for sharing your story ; )

  • Thanks for sharing your story ; )

  • If you think youre fat, you probably are!!! Visit bit[.]ly/a7XdjP

  • I have had the same fear of success! Thanks so much for sharing so openly and candid about your experiences. :)

  • So true, I was a smoker too and I gained weight as well when i went on raw i would eat a ton of raw bars and chocolate. I always felt like i needed to feed my self and treat myself. The same thing to whenever i had a perfect day usually becuase i was busy. days where i followed my diet, ate just enough i felt i couldnt do on my own. I am going to do another cleanse and hope to over come this like u!

  • Awesome!

  • you look stunning in this video!! i love watching them btw, very informative! xx

  • it must be horrible to be the same size you were when you were 15

  • lol 10 points

  • there are only 2 things you could be doing wrong on a juice feast - you could not be alkaline enough by drinking too much juice with sugar in it. If you do all Green juice for the first 2-3 weeks and drink tons of lemon water and never let your ph go acidic theres nothing you can do to not lose weight. ...

  • I believe with a Juice Feast you should always do a Enema....

  • Just watched it again. This is such a powerful video! Thanks for posting! :)

  • Awesome!! :)

  • you are like hot and sexy okay;)

  • You are awesome!! :)

  • Thanks for this video! I have been struggling with addictions my whole life. When I was younger it was food and later that transferred to Alcoholism. I have been in recovery for almost a year and half and am ready to start getting rest of the bad habits. I quit diet coke (that addiction came after I quiz booze, I was up to 3 liters a day) and now it's smoking! I just got a juicer and now am looking into the 10 juice feast. I have an appointment to get chantix on the 30th. Hoping I can quit

  • I was a smoker, I chain smoked for 20 years! I was hooked, tried everything from acupuncture to the nicotine patch. Chantix is scary stuff, it alters brain chemistry & your uptake of dopamine. There has been MANY cases of severe bad reaction, I am surprised its still on the market. Really surprised. I finally quit smoking, cold turkey, and I haven't looked back since. You are so strong, look what you have overcome. you can do anything!! I'm sure of it! Join us on the juice feast!!

  • oh my gosh this video was so relevant for me to see. i've been really trying to examine my own bad habits and the idea of self sabotage. i totally understand that fear of your own potential.

    thanks so much for sharing :)

  • Yes, self sabotage is a biggie-- but you can over come it and change it around. I truly believe that!

  • When I first decided to go raw, I was eating a TON of fruits and vegetables. Almost compulsively. I got to the point, after a month, that I had an inflammed gut and stretched out stomach lining! Compulsive overeating! I thought...what the heck is going on here! I was completely dehydrated! My digestion got completely F*ed up, and my skin was breaking out ...I started drinking water and doing mostly liquids. Finally I am satisfied and resist the emotional urge to eat my anxiety problems. Phew.

  • Phew is right!! Happy to hear you got over that and got to the other side!!!

  • Damn! This video really hit home!

  • Fabulous!

  • I have been there too as far as fear is concerned and attaining goals .I keep telling myself changes happen over time so consistency will reap my hard work. You have such a positive mind. Congratulations on reaching your goals and continued success!

  • Yes, you are completely right, changes do happen over time, we have to be good to ourselves! :)

  • I have the same fear.....keeping me from the next level...

    thank you....i will start my juice fast on the equinox

  • Awesome, Perfect timing! Let me know how it goes :)

  • Ooh ooh ooh! Can I be part of the group?! Pretty pretty please? :-)

  • Of course!!:)

  • Excellent! The mind definately has an impact on our body and the circumstances in our life! Congrats on quitting smoking, the breakthrough, and also...You look and ARE amazing! :-)

  • Thank You!! :)

  • Congratulations! You are so honest and inspirational! :)

  • Thank You!!!
