Juice fast

In 2005, Cross weighed 22 stone (310 pounds = 140 kilograms) and suffered from an autoimmune condition, chronic urticaria, for which he had been taking medications such as the steroid prednisone for years. He spent his 30s trying traditional and non-traditional medicine to solve his illness. and unsuccessfully tried various diets in fits and starts. His daily diet consisted of mainly processed foods. Cross was a smoker and consumed alcohol regularly. According to Cross, he believed that his eating habits had caused his illness and he wanted to change his lifestyle. He wanted to get off medication as he believed that the medication or doctors were not able to offer a cure for his condition. In 2005, when he was 40, the doctors told him that with his health, he would die early and he decided to consume only juice for 60 days in order to improve his health. Under the supervision of his doctor and a team that monitored his blood work regularly, he started the juice fast in May 2005. For his juice fast, he decided to travel across America while talking to people about their attitudes toward food. He travelled in a truck with a cameraman, a sound guy, a juicer and a generator. Cross survived on nothing but juices for 60 days during his juice fast.

He used an 80/20 rule, according to which, he used 80 percent vegetables and 20 percent fruit in the juice that he made, to avoid getting too much sugar into his system. Cross used a special juice that he prepared called the Mean Green Juice - a mixture of kale, apples, lemon, cucumber, celery and ginger. However, he kept changing the fruits and vegetables used in the juice to ensure he consumed different plants and vegetables.

According to Cross, the first three to five days, he felt groggy and unstable. However, after consuming only juice for five days, he started feeling well both physically and mentally. After 49 days, he lost 67 pounds (30 kg), his total cholesterol dropped from 204 to 135 and his LDL cholesterol went from 132 to 86. By day 61, Cross lost 82 pounds and decreased his medicine dosage after reporting a complete loss of his urticaria symptoms. Following the 60-day juice fast, he consumed only foods derived from plants and no animal-based or processed food for 90 days.

As of March 2013, Cross weighed 240 pounds (109 kg), a weight that he maintained for the past five years. He hit an all-time low of 210 pounds (95 kg) near the end of his first five months of the diet. Cross's future plan includes a juicing launch in the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Russia, Brazil and Chile.

Cross does not recommend the diet as a long term solution and only recommends it as a reboot for the body. According to him, he took up the diet because he wanted a circuit breaker to stop what he was doing and not to adopt it as a permanent lifestyle. One of the misconceptions that Cross tries to correct is that people think he consumes nothing but juice. "That's not a proper, healthy way to live," adds Cross.

Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead

Cross filmed his juice and travel through America, and released a documentary, Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead, in 2011. In the movie, while travelling, Cross meets people and talks to them about their eating habits. The movie features interview segments with people who were inspired to follow his example. He charts his progress with an itemized list of what day of the fast it is, what city and what state Cross is filming in, how much weight he's lost (both in pounds and kilograms) and what kind of medication he's taking. During his road-trip Cross meets and inspires Phil Staples, a morbidly obese truck driver from Sheldon, Iowa, in a truck stop in Arizona to try juice fasting. The movie was originally called Death By Fat. Then it became Faster. However, after Cross came to America to shoot the movie, he had to completely change the concept and the idea of the movie.

The film has been credited with doubling the sales of Breville juicers since the documentary launched on Netflix in the US in July 2011. After completing work on Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead, he continued to travel around the world to promote juicing and also plans to make a second movie about life after juicing. Cross is also involved in negotiations with media companies in the US about a TV series.

A sequel to the film, Fat Sick and Nearly Dead 2 was released in 2014. The sequel follows the lives of people from the first movie, includes expert interviews and shows Cross's effort to maintain his weight. In 2016, Cross produced another health documentary entitled The Kids Menu, which focuses on stopping childhood obesity at its wake.
