    Can you please highlight which posts swayed you to try this cleanse and which posts were not compelling enough to convince you that a cleanse is not necessary for weight loss and sometimes can even be quite harmful? I'd like to see what verbiage resonates and what needs to be amended for the next cleanse thread...

    Eat Thanksgiving food, then eat regular diet at a deficit. Liver will cleanse, kidneys will filter.

    No cleanse needed.

    oh hell no, thats as bad as drinking grass smoothies

    tis the season for cleanses and detoxes, falalalalalala...

    OP - you don't need to cleanser your body of toxins as your body does that naturally on your own. Also, you don't "kickstart" weight loss. Just start eating in a deficit, and making better overall decision with what you are eating.

    Hey I'm Ashley and I need to lose like 60lbs. I'm starting my 10 day green smoothie cleanse Wed. Let me know if you are jnterested. I need a support buddy and I'm new to these discussion post
    Hi Ashley, I have don't this cleanse several times. In fact i just finished2 weeks ago. So i am unable to do it with you. There is a huge facebook group with tons on great support. My only suggestion is that you have a plan for what you are going to do after the cleanse. You cannot go back to you old way of eating because you will most certainly put i all back on. Use the cleanse as stepping stone to your final goal and not the end all be all.
    Why did you need to "cleanse" multiple times?

    because toxins...

    @WinoGelato My guess is that, they didn't read the replies; at least I hope that's why?

    Even though it seems like all the sensible people are just talking among themselves and being ignored by the 'pro-boring-smoothie-detox' people, I'm going to throw in my 2 cents.

    OP- I can give you a way to SAVE money and LOSE WEIGHT! HOW you ask? Well, the answers simple...

    I lost 46lbs by eating exactly what I wanted. I didn't blend anything down, I didn't have to live off of fruits and veggies (although I eat them when I want to). I can eat biscuits, crisps, soup, pizza, risotto. Literally anything I want (although from a health angle I do try and get a good amount of fruit and veg in too obviously).

    I saved money because I didn't have to fork out for expensive diet plans, smoothies, OR a ton of fresh veggies to blend down. Because I was eating less than before, I was buying less food (= spending less money).

    It's literally that easy. Why on earth would you put yourself through an almost exclusively liquid diet when you can eat real food? and by eating 'actual' food, you'll be losing fat, not just water weight that you'll gain back after the 'cleanse'.

    because weight loss is hard and should be the equivalent to the experience of being tortured during the inquisition ….
