I think you might be confusing detox with an elimination diet.
this. your body processing food and then not eating any more of said food is not a detox.
Some detox diets are very similiar to elimination diet i.e. wild rose - gets rid of gluten, yeast, anything fermented, dairy, high glycemic index foods, organic only, etc. Going on a pre-cleanse diet like wild rose could helps some people identify food intolerances or possible difficulties with sugar (through lowering carbs). An elimination diet has helped a lot of people I know, but they are only really necessary when someone is having symptoms of a possible food intolerance/chemical sensitivities/insulin resistance i.e. tummy troubles, headaches, fatigue, irritability, cognitive problems etc.
But, but, but... there are no "toxins" being removed by the elimination of any foods from the diet. Calling something a "detox" diet is just ridiculous. I don't even want to know what a "pre-cleanse diet" is.
So you don't think eliminating foods with mercury, horomones, pesticides, or nitrites is removing toxins from the diet?0 -
Oh ditch the trainer please. Any trainer that knows what they are doing is not going to tell you to detox.0

Not the same thing as implying that the function of the diet is a detox.
If someone wants to eat fish without mercury, hormone free dairy, organic produce and nitrate free meats, it's pretty damned easy to find these products and do what you want without labeling it something akin to a junkie entering a clinic. Considering that their counterparts are all considered safe for consumption by the USDA, I wouldn't call the hormones, pesticides, or limited amounts of nitrates and mercury toxic. The liver and kidneys handle those things just fine and need no help. Labeling the diet a "detox" is misleading.

Oh no, that's it. We're doomed. Need to detox. Now. Probably can't. I doubt that even water is safe.

Operational definition: When I am referring to a "detox" diet, I am referring to a diet that advertises itself as a detox diet. I am not making any claims to that diet's effectiveness in removing toxins from the body.
It is a word choice, and criticising someone's use of language is against MFP forum guidelines.
Obviously, most diets already assist the body in removing toxins (by providing water, energy, protein, fat, and micronutrients to support the body's natural processes). "Detox" diets often encourage eating fruits and vegetables, which have phytonutrients and antioxidants (prevent disease), and reduce foods that have more "toxins" in them, by promoting organic foods, and eliminating foods like processed meat (nitrates/nitrites) that contribute to disease.
And, my point stands. There are diets that advertise themselves as "detox" that are really elimination diets. So long as there are no inherent risks to the proposed diet, there is no reason to attack someone for following it, or to call them gullible. OP is not proposing doing the Master Cleanse. If she wants to try eating a little differently for a couple of weeks, she will in that time figure out for herself if anything in the meal plan works for her. If not, she can choose just not to do it again. Concerns can be expressed without insults. And, lessons can be learned from the experience. The Wild Rose diet wasn't for me long term, but I am benefitting now from the lessons I learned when following it (i.e. I need dairy to diet successfully and I can eat brown rice, popcorn, and almonds till I'm stuffed, and stay at a deficit). And, to OP -
+1 for getting back on the wagon after a binge. As far as I can tell, the diet is not harmful. In general, try to meet macros and micros and stay in a calorie deficit, and weight loss will be achieved. One binge does not mean the journey ends. Twenty binges doesn't mean the journey ends. If a food is making it harder to stay in your calorie deficit, or just makes you feel awful when you eat it, consider reducing it. If not, feel free to include it. Most people got overweight by eating a little too much everyday, not from binges. Most people can lose weight when eating a calorie range, not the exact same number of calories every day. And most people can lose the weight even when their dietary adherence isn't perfect. Best wishes on the journey
This is why I say that I should just validate everything silly little thing posted.
It's obvious there are a lot of people that just want a rubber stamp, and not to be shown a good direction to move towards. This post I quoted just proves that. They're even willfully misquoting forum rules in order to attempt to cow others into rubber stamping.

Can any of the adherents (or anyone really) provide me a good definition of what "jumpstarting" and "kickstarting" actually means? I want a knuckled-down definition of these often repeated terms.
I did do a google on "what does jumpstart a diet mean?" and all I get are pages and pages of how-to, which is meaningless without an understanding of terms.
It is my understanding that the only time person needs to "jumpstart" or "kickstart" their metabolism is when their heart has stopped beating with a defibrillator.0 -

ETA: From The American Heart Association "an electronic device gives an electric shock to the heart. This helps reestablish normal contraction rhythms in a heart having dangerous arrhythmia or in cardiac arrest."
Whoops overstated it.

You are thinking of a defibrillator, although it technically attempts to correct electrical issues with the heart (that may or may not produce a pulse). If you heart has zero electrical activity, the defibrillator is useless.0 -
