My popularity has sky rocketed as if I'm a new person but I'm staying true to myself and the 999 Diet. -Emily D, 23, Student, NM.

A Large majority of my life was spent suffering name calling and other emotional distress. Many times I wanted to participate in school events like other teens but my self-esteem was too low because I felt all that anyone could see was my weight. I've been on the 999 Diet and lost most of the extra pounds drinking a variety of flavorful juices. I've learned that losing weight doesn't have to result in starving yourself, it takes self-control and motivation. If the 999 diet works for me it could work for anyone. My popularity has sky rocketed as if I'm a new person but I'm staying true to myself and the 999 Diet.

"The beauty of the 999 program and what sets it apart from other programs is the concept of the interval based formula. An interval is a period of time between two activities. This concept usually applies to fitness, but now it's been introduced into the juicing world by 999!"

I was out for drinks with a friend a few months ago when we started talking about fitness. He commented how I used to be in great shape. I was taken aback by his comment. I thought I was still fit! He back peddled and assured me that I was still fit, just not as fit as I was in 2008. He was right.

I didn't stop going to the gym but my diet changed dramatically when I moved from Boston to NYC in 2008. I kept up with exercise but my socializing started to center around food and drinks! NYC has so many great places to eat...it's so hard to not eat the amazing food the city has to offer!

I needed a kick-start to get myself motivated and back eating a healthy diet. My friend told me about the 999 Diet. I have never done a juice cleanse and had my doubts. Surprisingly it was just what I needed to get out of the rut I was in with social eating/drinking. It was the perfect excuse not to drink and overindulge.

I borrowed my friend's juicer and committed to the 999 Diet for 9 days.
Making the juice was far more fun than I thought it would be! I did substitute some of the juices. I don't like pears so I used an apple instead. I added fresh horseradish to the tomato based juices...Delicious! I even concocted my own juices as I was easing out. Making juice is fun!

I did get a bit tired of drinking the lemonades but it was well worth it when I began seeing results! The 999 Diet is exactly what I needed to get my fitness back on track. I lost a pound a day on the diet! I am not going to go backwards. I changed my diet to include much of the produce from the diet and have my work out schedule back on track! I am down to a size 4 and looking forward to getting back into my size 2 Betsy Johnson dress!

I gave the juicer back to my friend (they have another friend starting the diet) and can honestly say I miss the juicer. I may have to purchase my own juicer so I can keep making juice...especially the Waterfellon.

"Since the American Dietetic Association recommends weight loss not to exceed 1 pound a week for women and 2 pounds a week for men, The 999 diet has adequate calories to meet your needs to ensure the weight loss is real pounds, not just water weight. Many diets with very low calories have you drop pounds too quickly, and they end up coming back just as quickly."

Being a veterinarian assistant you tend to lose time for other activities including working out. Now I see how not working in those belly crunches and sit ups have built up on me.

I was quite overweight so that probably caused my problems in the dating scene. After my last dating incident of getting stood up one night at a very expensive restaurant I committed myself to losing those pounds in the quickest, easiest way possible. I heard that was through your 999 diet.

I started your 999 Diet cycle program six weeks ago today. You won't believe the awesome results! Although I lost the pounds I set out to lose I'd still like to lose a few more to be perfectly happy. I'd love for the man who stood me up to be able to see me now!

"Given that the 999 Diet is based on whole foods, it contains a host of nutritional compounds that are considered functional and have been associated with decreased risk of chronic disease. The number of calories one consumes on the diet is comparable to the number one might consume on a daily basis. When used on a temporary basis, this diet may play a role in helping one reach one's weight loss goal."
