    Why torture yourself with a 10 day juice diet? All you will lose is water weight that you will gain right back as soon as you start eating normally again.

    I'm not even sure if this is serious, but this is based off the Master Cleanse which is not exactly a healthy nor enjoyable way to lose weight.

    this cannot be a real thing? can it?

    I want to do the watermelon diet- it's like juicing - but you get to eat real "food" but it's watermelon- so it's mostly water and sugar.

    HEH.

    I can eat pounds of that *kitten*!!!! But then I'm sick and sad because I have no protein. :(

    Eating syrup and then a lemon? Eating lemons and then syrup? Either scenario makes me pucker. NO thanks.

    Never heard of it. I eat a lot of maple syrup and lemons, but not together. I generally have the maple syrup with peanut butter, and the lemon with water, tea or sangria.

    I don't know if that counts, but I highly recommend both as they've helped keep me healthy for decades.

    Are you talking about the master cleanse?

    Search the forums for it. There have been some pretty horrific results. I'd go for a moderate calorie deficit instead. :)

    Mmmmmm.... Watermelon! Once a week, I stop by the grocery deli and get 2 rotisserie chicken breasts and a huge container of cubed cold watermelon (usually after a heavy lifting day). People have been appalled to walk into my office and see what I have done to that watermelon and what a chicken breast looks like once you have stripped away every last ounce of meat.

    That will be an express way to lose muscle tissue and become a flabby mess and every time you eat something gain 10 pounds which ultimately spirals you toan ED.
    So NO,no Fad diets!
    Calculate your BMR eat that every day,if you workout eat some more,eat healthy and try eating clean,the weight will drop off like magic!

    First of all, you're talking about the Master Cleanse which was not intended to be used as a "diet" - Second of all, it's crap no matter what you use it for. You can fast off weight all you want and lose nice water weight and muscle tissue, but as soon as you start to eat again, you gain it all back and usually some more on top of that.

    Awesome! I wasn't sure if I'd find a place for this so quickly:

    Love maple syrup. I wish I could afford to eat it more often. I love lemons too, especially in me tea.

    heh- I left my gym around 1130 PM and went straight to Shop Rite to buy a big ole watermelon and ate the whole thing- I was embarrassed for myself- but the reality is- it's delicious. who goes out of their way at almost midnight for a watermelon craving!!!
