    Epsom salt dehydrates, so it's probably just water weight that's lost and will come back next time you have a glass of water. :P

    Oh, and be careful for UTIs/yeast infections if you're a lady-type soaking in anything that can upset your pH.

    You lose weight by consuming less calories than you use.

    Please don't confuse me with the facts:huh:

    Haha, you really do lose weight! You aren't eating junk food, you walk a lot, and drink lots of water! I lost 10-12 pounds on each mission trip I have been on!

    your kidneys remove toxins from your body already.



    Your kidneys do, but if you are full of toxins your kidneys need help because the kidneys and liver become sluggish and you gain weight as a result.. Detox gets rid of toxins thus can aid in weightloss.

    Technically you could lose weight by soaking in the tub all day and never eating but I would not suggest it.....

    If your liver and kidneys are "sluggish" then you are ill. Drink water and eat real food in slightly less amounts then you burn and you will lose weight.


    This was very entertaining!

    Depending on where the mission trip takes place, you might catch a bug that causes gastrointestinal distress which will result in weight loss.

    Sounds like a wonderful spa treatment! Wish I had a tub worthy of that. What I do know is I tried epsom salts soak for my feet after a really bad high heels night and my feet felt brand new in 30 minutes! That alone is worth the price of admission. As far as detoxing, I prefer to do mine on a daily basis from the inside out with lots of fresh whole fruits and veggies! THAT WORKS and is quite delicious, too! Good luck to you!

    Ok, this would obviously not be my main source of weight loss.I would eat healthy and exercise..I am going back on what I called my "Honduras and Nicaragua Mission Trip Diet"...........for those who tried the detox bath did you lose any weight?

    Honduras and Nicaragua Mission Trip Diet? Are you planning to starve yourself? Then, yes, you might lose weight.

    That's nothing compared to the face they'll be pulling when some ginger gets into those *special* places...

    That was just one recipe for the detox bath....I have heard of being losing a pound or 2 everytime they have done so.

    More than likely, it is a temporary water loss. Definitely not fat. It is no better than the wraps.

    Hi y'all! How are you doing on your weight loss? I am down 25 pounds...not really sure how I lost it because I haven't been "faithful" on my eating plan and exercise. lol. Any way, I have 100 pounds more to lose.

    Have any of you tried the detox bath for weight loss? If so did you lose weight?

    Did you know you can lose weight and detox by taking a big ole deuce? (Uh, not in the tub Einstein)
