Since none of them work of course it works as well
Didn't you read the part where I've lost 30 pounds since the cleanse? Of course it works.
That's because you are eating less than you burn. It has nothing to do with the cleanse. What did you cleanse yourself of anyways?

It was a very large beard. It would have been very hard to clean if it got something sticky in it. And possibly yellow.0 -

I remember you touting your fantastic cleanse and how it was a springtime ritual that everyone anticipated with delight. I haven't heard a peep about it this year, and I am quite disappointed.0 -
So you lost 30 pounds in 10 days? You statement that you've lost 30 pounds since the cleanse means nothing. You've lost weight because you've eaten fewer calories than you burned, not because of the cleanse.
No, I lost 30 pounds since doing the cleanse. I did the cleanse last Easter. The cleanse utilizes monoglucosaccharides to scrub the digestive ducts which allows for fast fat loss.

Macrotoxins and excess vapors. They build up over time and need a cleansing every once in a while.0 -

Ah, yes, the excess vapors! My husband always complains when I decrease my build-up of those.0 -

I lost 10 pounds in the course of about 3 days on the "Bad Mexican Food" cleanse. Just eat a spoiled shredded chicken burrito and you won't believe the amount of "cleansing" and "detoxing" going on. From both ends. At the same time.0 -

I guess I'm an underachiever as it was only from one end0 -
Cleanses are a waste of money. I tried a 3 day juice cleanse just to see what the fuss was about. It was expensive and when I calculated the calories for the day, it was only like 700 cals for the day for all 7 juices which is way under the recommended daily intake for safe weight-loss. The only thing you really need is water to "flush" your liver and body of toxins. I have since discontinued this juice cleanse as I only got it to try it and don't recommend them for anyone.0

This reminds me of that other guy in the sauna thread. More like an automated spambot than an actual human being.0

I was thinking the same thing. Seems like some people are more interested in hearing only affirmations of woo they already believe in rather than the scientifically proven truth. Cognitive dissonance.0 -

Most of the people in your thread have tried silly fads in the past, including "detoxes", with no luck.
They (we) figured out the hard way that they are useless wastes of time and decided to just eat less food instead.
They're all the same. It absolutely doesn't matter. They're all gimmicks.
Did you read the thread that Diannethegeek posted?
I'm thinking you didn't actually read that thread, or the one posted by Anvilhead, or you wouldn't still be asking for experiences and claiming that anyone who isn't cheering your idea is unsupportive...
If trying to keep you from wasting money and spending countless unpleasant hours in the bathroom is unsupportive then so be it...

My take on this thread:
OP: I'm thinking of jumping out of a plane without a parachute. I'd like to know other people's thoughts/opinions, but only if you've tried it yourself.0 -

Oh, it's not the stuff you drink that's disgusting, it's the results that follow. Quick weight loss
No the stuff you drink is disgusting too. It's hard to get down. Funny thing is that my colonoscopies usually happen when I am flaring bad and already going 30+ times a day so the prep was just an average day for me.
This. I hard a time finishing the movi-prep, it came out both ends at the same time. It was horrific.
Go lytely (ironic name) is worse
My GI MD had me mix an entire bottle of miralax in two bottles of gatorade that I had to drink and then take a handful of ducolax pills too. It didn't taste bad, but holy cow, I lived in the bathroom.0 -

Hi folks,
I'm closing this discussion. The OP gets it by now, you don't like cleanses.
If you aren't trying to be helpful, please move on without posting, or ignore the content.
Thanks!
