Looking for a detox/cleanse?

Wow....I think we might need a do over here. One with a title that doesn't sound like its encouraging people to come here looking for a cleanse.

Did it occur to you that perhaps the people looking for a cleanse are the people that need to see the information I've provided?

Okay...wow....did it occur to you that a lot of people are assuming that this is the place to come if you want a cleanse? They are not actually reading what you posted.

Like wow..don't you think that regardless the title, people should actually READ the thread?

Mind blowing, right?

Why don't you quit hijacking this thread now because you have issues with people only reading the title of things.

Thanks. I've been thinking about doing juice detox but been delaying it because i dont think it'll gives me enough energy

This should be pinned somewhere!!

It is. If you go back out into General Diet and Weight Loss Help it's right at the top.

Thanks, I appreciate the information & common sense. Sometimes I need that kick in the butt to remind me there's no quick - fix! :ohwell:

Hi
Try the tummy water you can get the list of ingredients on line . Basically it's ginger ,cucumber ,lemon , mint added to water . It flushes your system and helps you drop weight fast . I love it because your drinking fluids and your not eating as much . Try it

Did you read the OP?

Clearly not.

I did the mastercleanse. Obviously you cant maintain the loss however it did teach me something. I believe it can teach you how to listen to your body and recognize when you are truly hungry or eating to eat. It taught me I do have willpower if I am in the right mindset. I am a binge eater and it taught me how to have balance with food by decreasing its neccesity in my brain. It was no longer that desirable. Which for me is huge cuz I think of food obsessively. So it can prepare you for vlc diets as well. Like the hcg diet or caveman paleo or the the ketogenic type diets or diets where you have to stop eating certain things like dairy wheat gluten and stuff like that or if you are heading toward the raw or vegetarian or vegan.

How about instead of rolling your eyes and face palming you actually reveal what you find so wrong with the post?

I also did the Master Cleanse and had great success with it. It was rough going a few times there due to stomach cramps and cravings but I persevered for two weeks. It taught me how much I depend on food as an emotional crutch. Now I eat good, healthy foods when I'm hungry and it works out so much better.

During the vast majority of the cleanse I craved Chipotle like crazy. I just wanted to be free of that obsession, it was absurd. Now it's gone and thank goodness for that. Now I just crave freshly pressed juices and vegetables.

My daily calories were about 810. I tried to walk everyday to keep my metabolism from falling to far. I did lose muscle mass, but I'm working on getting it back. I either run or walk everyday and I'm adding in some strength training as well.

I lost over 20lbs, during the cleanse and the week after of lite eating and so far I've kept it off. I'm also a vegetarian now and I never thought that would be the case. I feel much healthier, much better, much cleaner in body and mind.

So there's that!

Theres nothing right about it. Instead of asking why the facepalm, why don't you read the first post in the thread?

bro i'm not a doctor but i gotta say i drank nothin but gilby's gin for three weeks and i turned into captain planet you feel me

It's a sticky - you dont need to bump it

Total bull****. If you can pee and poop, your body will "cleanse" itself. Anything else is just snake oil; products that claim to "detox" are just a way for hucksters to make money from the gullible.

One of the best detox/cleanse out is [snipped]. Check it out [snipped]

LOLsigh

You don't need a detox/cleanse - but I can tell you that doing the 21 day sugar/carb detox before I started MFP was the catalyst that put me on the path to healthier eating and weight loss for the past 7 months. After depriving myself of the things I love it was a pleasure to just count calories and not cut out anything.
I honestly don't think I could have done this without it.
