    I love apples! :) I agree it could be a kickstart and it isn't just apples. I eat what's in this diet sometimes anyways. So I can't see the harm. At least it's not like the Master Cleanse... that one is harsh!

    I was looking at the diet plan posted above and on page one of this post. I am considering it, but only because it includes all the other foods, and I think its a great way to start off an eating healthier life style. I'm a researcher by nature, and am researching diets and exercises and foods to eat and not to eat, etc. I'm only on Day 3 of THIS diet--which consists of eating healthier, keeping a food journal, drinking a LOT more water, and adding so much exercise that my glutes are hard as rocks in protest. LOL. I think a strict 3 day diet that I follow religiously would be helpful in converting to this new lifestyle. Its also helpful that the seasons are changing and my food will become more grilled than anything else :~)

    The thing I worry about with the 3 day apple diet is that most websites I have read that if you don't eat enough your body goes into starvation mode and stores everything as fat instead of converting it to energy. Is this what is going to happen on a diet as minimal as this? I certainty don't want to start this diet out STORING Fat. Thanks for your input.

    This is why I hate diets and love myfitnesspal. You're permanently changing your lifestyle. With every diet I ask myself the question: can I eat in this way for the rest of my life? And it's always been a firm NO. especially with diets like these. I saw a study of a Dutch 500 calorie diet recently. The person lost 4 kgs, but only 0.75 kgs was fat, the rest was water and useful nutrients.

    And: your body goes into ketosis, which gives you a terrible body odour

    I don't think it's a good idea, I tried it out to see how long I could do it and it only lasted about two hours then I quit.

    It's probably not destructive for only 3 days, but it is too low cal for the long term.

    I wouldn't do it for two reasons, really. Personally, I don't believe cleanses work. I believe a healthy body has evolved to process everything just the way it was meant to. People talk about "toxins", but there's no definitive proof of build ups that I have seen, and websites that speak of toxins are very vague and don't provide a list of toxins.... or how much is considered a "build up". Or even how a person could test themselves to see if they even have a build up. Again, this is just my opinion based on my own research.

    And secondly, I prefer to keep my calories at 1600 or more if I exercise.

    Hi,
    You are either jokin or very unwell to think it is ok to advertise the weight loss from a apple diet.
    It is posts like this that encourage unhealthy eatin and lure people into tryin fad diets.. Not to mention supportin the quick fix dieters.
    Come on think people before postin this kinda crap!!

    OP, you said that you lost the weight on it, did you gain it back? i feel like quick fixes like those types of diets are just a waste of time. if you want to keep the weight off then long term lifestyle changes are much more effective.
    if it is the meal plan posted where you eat an apple before other stuff, then it doesn't seem too bad. why not just drink a few glasses of water first for the same feeling full effect?
    if it's only apples for 3 days, that's just silly :laugh:
    (and i love apples, i eat 2 to 3 a day as snacks/desserts. warmed in the microwave with cinnamon mmmmmm)
