Wake up people. The key to weight loss is...dun dun dun
A caloric deficit!
Carbs don't make you fat. Fat doesn't make you fat. Excess calories make you fat. Stop wasting your money on these fad diets, "cleanses", and "weight loss pills"..all they're doing is taking your money. Pills don't "make you lose weight" all they do is supress your appetite.
This is in response to the "Lemon cleanse" diet someone posted yesterday.

I dunno .. sounds anecdotal. Got any studies that back up the notion it was a caloric deficit? Correlation's not causation, and all that ...0 -
It's funny to see people who actually fall for these things when the answer is right under their nose0

I use the cleanse from AdvoCare, eat all the clean food ya want. Its not about weight loss its about getting a healthy gut so
you can absorb all the goodness from your nutrition. I also use there high quality vitamins and some of the Pro Elite line. However you do end up loosing weight and inches. Used every 90 days, its amazing :-)0 -

I've never tried it myself. I don't think a cleanse hurts if done occasionally. If it makes you feel better, why not. The original post is correct. Diet and exercise. Hell, for most of us, it was more about just learning how to eat correctly.0

I also eat clean food. I wash all my fruits and veggies before I eat them - and WOW, beleive it or not my body actually absorbs the nutrients. I wonder what would happen if I did not wash my produce - would my body then stop absorbig the good stuff???? :laugh:0 -

For all of us I'd say. The world has screwed up our way of thinking when it comes to nutrition from the minute we come out the womb. Sad world we live in.0
