Need a great movie to watch Friday night, or over the weekend? (It's a documentary, actually...) Try out Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead, a somewhat whimsical story of Joe Cross's journey from being fat and quite sick, to a healthy weight with no sickness or prescriptions. Joe promotes what he calls a 'reboot' (his term for an extended juice fast) which he used to cleanse and detox his body, and you can try, too.* I like Joe, because he doesn't take himself or his film too seriously.

Joe is an Australian investor and businessman who chronicled his simple approach to getting off of steroids and overcoming his food addictions, and he's sharing the story with the world. Here are some of his resources:
Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead website
Reboot With Joe website
You can watch the full-length documentary on Netflix (with your subscription), for free on Hulu (with commercials) or from the Reboot website, here.

| Phil Staples, transformed |

| Dr. Joel Fuhrman |
In the movie, you'll also meet Phil Staples from Iowa, and see his incredible transformation from 429 pounds, to a much more normal 204 pounds. Another notable appearance is from Dr. Joel Fuhrman, a nutritional expert from NJ, author of 'Eat to Live' and numerous other valuable books on nutritional excellence.
Happy watching!
