Saw this in the checkout line at Savemart. A 3+ pound per day loss? Even if it is the first week and water, that seems outrageous. Of course I want it to be true...but it's just too good.

    if you were like 300 pounds overweight and went on a water fast or juice fast then YEAH I could see it. You'd lose bloating from salt and you'd deplete your glycogen stores which also holds water. HOWEVER the moment you started eating it would come right back.

    The sad thing is people think this is healthy or do-able

    I agree. Or NORMAL. I know a lot of people who believe that extreme weight loss of like 5-10 lb per week is normal, safe & doable.
