    Wow!! First off I'd like to say I appreciate everyone's honesty. I know that u want to know the y behind my reason for wanting to deyox. It's simple I want to get healthy!! I am a person who loves fast food, sweets, soda, and sitting. I have tried eating right on my own and for some reason after a day or too I say f it and go grab a double cheeseburger n fries. I am finally ready to say enough is enough.

    Now i will be honest the 10 day lemonade plan is really not for me after i posted i did more research. And long story short I don't want to get sick or be mean to everyone around me. I am still going to detox but I think I found something that is much more healthy.

    Three days of nothing but veggies and fruits. This seems much more realistic and I can handle three days of fresh juice. Its from Dr. Oz, the three day cleanse

    I'm pretty sure a bad curry will give you the same results. :laugh:

    Learning to eat healthy is a matter of practice. There are no gimmicks.

    These charlatans are just making a fast buck off of hopeful people who think this is a magic pill.

    Maybe google images of complications of diabetes for motivation.

    Seeing these fairly young women in hospital suffering like they were and they had lovely families having to come to the hospital to visit them,instead of being healthy and playing outside with their children and grandchildren, did it for me.

    When I want something unhealthy, I picture the 2 ladies with the amputations. I really don't want that.

    No cleanse or detox or any other gimmick will take away the urge to have a cheeseburger and fries. There's only 2 ways around that one. You either develop the willpower to say no and walk away or you work your budget so you can eat those foods on occasion. Usually a little bit of both goes a long way.

    If you crave cheeseburgers and usually cave in to that then eating fruits and veggies for 3 days a la Dr Quack's diet plan isn't going to change that. If you can't commit to eating better and exercising I guarantee you that nothing Dr Oz, Joe. a miracle cleanse or any other gimmick is going to do to fix it.

    Losing weight and getting healthy starts right between your ears. First you get your brain into a place where you can make the commitment and then you start a healthy lifestyle. Even if you take baby steps at first it's a start in the right direction. Start off by logging all your food accurately. Weight and measure everything. Every last morsel that crosses your lips including beverages. See where you're going wrong and make some changes. Commit to some kind of physical activity every day. A 30 minute walk, a DVD at home, anything that gets you off the couch.

    You don't need to cleanse or detox. You'll only be miserable, lose a few pounds of water weight and be right back looking for a cheeseburger. There's tons of info and people to support you on this site. Make use of it instead of searching for the next quick fix.
