    WOW this place has a bunch of idiots. I never said prune juice unclogs arteries. Iam starting to think this forum is for a bunch of trolls. If you can't understand what I wrote then your definitely not fit to give advice. The OP didnt say weight loss cleanse ,OP meant to cleanse in general.
    Yes your body will cleanse itself if you give it the proper fiber and water amount per day. People here talk like you can eat anything and somehow your body will just sort it out.

    I recently took on a weight loss challange at my zumba fitness class. I have a month to loose all i can the natural way of course!!! I havent ever done a cleanse but i have heard they are really good and help with weight loss. I am just not sure what to do i dont want to take pills or anything i want to do this all natural. I have lost about 35lbs in 8 months but i am now stuck the scale has not moved in awhile... any advice would be wonderful!!!

    What others have said re the cleanse. Eat enough fibre and drink enough water and you will cleanse naturally. Psyllum husk is another good source of fibre and can be sprinkled on or added to whatever food you like.

    Also what someone else (I can't remember who) said - as you lose weight you will need to adjust your BMR and TDEE calculations and consequently either eat less or excersise more because as you get lighter you don't need as many calories (unfortunately) :(

    If your body never needs a cleanse then why after drinking something like prune juice you go to the bathroom alo. Because there is waste ,unproccessed or decaying food in your body. If you dont eat enough fiber in a day then yes your body needs a cleanse once in while. A bunch of parrots on this website WOW!!
    If your body never needed a cleanse then your artery would never clog up , your body would do it for you. See how stupid that theory is. Now what everyone should have said is dont buy those stupid cleanse products , you can clear your system with regular high fiber foods and liquids.

    I think that is what all the "parrots" have been saying …or did you miss that part ..?

    this is bizarre :indifferent:

    I will just say no to cleanse - I do agree with the earlier post that maybe you need to recalculate your BMR due to your weight loss, you may be eating more than you should be to continue losing.

    Also get back on the weigh, measure and log bandwagon - it works :ohwell:

    colon blow and a vacuum cleaner is my preferred method….

    Can someone direct me to the adult section? People come on here for advice not to be made fun of. I think we were cleansing your beard while were at it.

    Sometimes people hit a plateau.

    No, they don't. No such thing as a plateau. If you're not losing, you're eating more than you're burning.
    This may help you: http://www.acaloriecounter.com/blog/why-am-i-not-losing-weight/
    This is I agree with. I lost 42 pounds without ever plateauing, though someone times the scale moved a bit slower than I would have liked.

    So - this is a bit off topic, but not really... wouldn't you come to a point, though, where you stopped losing weight... I mean, I would LOVE to get down to 135 - that's where I have my goal... I'm just not sure my body will let me go that low, so I'm going to try for 140 and then see how it goes, if I can get down to 135... isn't there just a point where the body says "yeah... this is it." ? (not saying that's where the OP is - I have no idea what her measurements are, etc.).

    As for weight loss - my body tends to go in stair steps... holds on to weight for a few weeks and then sheds quickly all of a sudden, and then stops for awhile... but I've never gone more than 2-3 weeks without seeing a drop.

    This is a LOT off topic - WNi5wIf.gif

    OP, as much as you don't want to hear this, the others are correct. Your body flushes out toxins continually without your assistance or the assistance of the "detoxes." BTW, think about this: your body has to work harder to rid itself of the "detox" cr@p you are pouring into it. What do you think happens to it? It magically becomes sparkly unicorns? No, your liver and kidneys have to break it down - "detox" it and get rid of it.

    Want an effective, efficient and safe way to detox your body? Eat lots of fiber and drink lots of water.

    Read the OP again - yes, she was talking about cleansing for weight loss, not 'cleansing in general'
