    I have read through most of these comments and it seems like alot of you dont like Dr Oz or doing a clense? I did see one lady post a three day type diet with food which i wrote down for after I do the clense I can start on this to get me where i need to be. I have learned that maybe I wont be posting advice on here lol lol......j/k you all have very valid points but like some of the posts most clenses, diets, working out etc is not the same for everyone, like I despise Cardio but I have to do it lol!!
    Keep up the good work everyone I am new to this fitness pal thing and hopefully I can post stuff to help also.
    Have a great day!!!!

    Just cut down on sodium, avoid processed foods and too much sugar. I replaced 1 meal (lunch) with a green drink and have been doing it for years since I bike ride to work. 3 day, 7 day, 30 day...those do NOT work. The more natural you go the better. There are no magic pills or drinks.

    You have to make a lifestyle change and commit to it. A diet is not something that is temporary, its forever.

    I'm on Day 2 of the detox and it's going pretty well. The breakfast and dinner smoothies are pretty good. I do not like the lunch smoothie- I think it's the cucumber taste. I miss chewing lol but I have to say, besides the caffeine headache on Day 1, it's been okay. I REALLY MISS COFFEE- tea just isn't cutting it! The smoothies are really filling and each meal makes a lot! I don't feel like anyone really needs a cleanse, however, I wanted a jumpstart on eating healthier and thought this would help get me motivated. So far, so good!

    Just don't quit. Those natural veggies are great for you. If I did it all over again, I would have stuck with my Vitamix and not even juiced, but it is what it is. When you are ready, get with a dietician. Avoid fast food, processed food and too much sodium. Let them work out a meal plan eating real food, not boxed precooked food and check in with your doctor for blood work to make sure all is going well.

    and you HAVE to take a nice long epsom bath each night...

    Having dyslexia, serious dyslexia, I read that as "sperm bath".

    How would you get the tub full???

    Whether or not the good Doctor is a quack or not, I believe he is sincere. That being said I also believe that if you are doing a cleanse for whatever reason that three days is just not enough. Three days and you are just getting started. I think its a decent start but it just isn't long enough to be very effective.

    For me personally, I can't just start eating right, or else I would have three years ago when I got fat. Doing a few days of something like a cleanse, completing it and saying "Ok, I did that like nothing. Why can't I force myself to eat better on the regular?"

    It's not a harmful detox. It's full of fresh fruit and veggies and has more than my recommended calorie intake daily.

    Kudos to those who can wake up one day and change so easily. Please remember that people on here come here to feel better about themselves and for support - you can say what you want to say without belitting anybody. I'm sure you all would hope for the same, especially on day 3 of your journey.

    Honestly, it just sounds like you're not ready to make a lifestyle change. You say that you can't just start eating right...but that is what you HAVE to do. So whether you do a cleanse first really makes no difference in the large scheme of things. If you aren't ready, you're not ready. It's okay. But don't kid yourself into thinking that 3 days of juicing and smoothie-making will make you ready.

    Now THAT'S a way to lose some serious weight!

    Really, everyone has a different trigger to start on a weight loss journey, it is not all plain sailing, not the beginning, not the plateaus and not the maintaining. Its all fairly hard to stay motivated, to make good habits.
