what the heck...??? That is so weird. I was wondering what happened. Hope you get it figured out.

Sounds like a less extreme version of a cleanse to me since you aren't eating processed food, but not torturing yourself either.

I have this same issue. He makes it difficult for me to stay on track. I need to just stick to it no matter what. He would always bring home DQ Blizzards; the last time he did I said I appreciate it but please don't buy that for me anymore but guess what? He bought me one last night and I kind of had a mini breakdown and told him he doesn't listen to me and that I don't need this stuff. Of course that brought out other problems we have been having. Everyone is right, it is up to you what you eat and how often you exercise. It may be an inconvenience to him but oh well. Such is life.

lol I'm not giving that up! How does the green smoothie taste? What fruits do you put in it?

Thanks for the feedback. I was thinking about incorporating prune juice into my cleanse, too bad it tastes disgusting.

Have you noticed a drop in water weight? Are you having regular BMs??

sbutler- I could understand how abstaining from those things would make them more exciting. Those things are a part of our lives so much that they are habits. We don't even have to think about doing them, but once they are taken away, we realize the importance. Very interesting. I think I would still miss food!

Sweet! I will continue to work out when I do a cleanse. I read about the Beachbody 2 day cleanse. I like that it is 2 days, but I think it is like $20. Probably tastes better than the Master Cleanse lol. Still haven't made a decision...

ginnyray- I realize a cleanse would not tone me which is why I have a gym membership and do weighttraining. I guess I wasn't clear. In general, I am looking to be healthy and toned and I def. do NOT expect a cleanse to magically make me healthy nor toned.

I've heard of the master cleanse. Just checking out some options. I am aware that these do not produce permanent weightloss, thank you. Not really interested in weightloss, just wanting to be healthy and toned. Giving my digestive system a fresh start seems healthy to me :)

hmmm maybe I should look into getting a juicer... sbutler-are you being serious right now? 25 days of JUST water?! That just doesn't seem healthy. Please elaborate..

I would def. like to know how it goes! I've heard of different kinds, I just haven't read much on anyone's personal experience so I don't know which one to go with. What is homemade green juice?

Has anyone ever tried a full body cleanse? If so, what kind and what were the results? Pros & cons? Thanks!

Omg! That is overkill!! I understand wanting to look good on your big day, but really?! People should have plenty of time to lose weight the healthy way. When you get engaged, it would be a good time to start your weight loss, not with a feeding tube. People amaze me. Everybody always wants an easy way out.

BKeller- We have the SAME exact issue. My legs have gradually gotten bigger ever since I've started the gym. Now my pants are sooo tight on my legs and fit perfectly or loose on my butt and hips, wth?! It is annoying. If my legs are getting bigger, I'd prefer my butt to do the same lol. I want to be proportional. Plus, I have a thing for big round butts ha! I was not blessed in that department. I've been trying to make my butt bigger, rounder & more toned for awhile. But my legs have no problem bulking up. I was doing jumping jacks in the mirror the other day and could see how defined my thighs are getting. I am also finally getting some calf muscles. I never had much definition in my calves til recently so I am happy about that.

short- I have noticed when I eat McDonalds or Hardees for breakfast esp. on the weekends, I won't eat for 5+ hours cuz I am not hungry and also I don't eat as much on the weekends. During the week when I am bored at my desk is when I eat the most.

haha yes, the before pics! I hope I don't have to buy a whole new wardrobe. I think my pants will just need replaced with a size smaller hopefully, but then again I might build more muscle and they might get tighter, if possible lol. I love this website and keeping track of everything really helps. I haven't had too much trouble staying motivated lately, fingers crossed. I hope to start my Insanity tomorrow!

Great job!

exercise, coffee, sugar-free jello, brushing teeth- all great ideas! Thx for your input =)

lol this is tough, but this website keeps me pretty busy as well as focused. I'm also fixing up and cleaning a house my dad owns so my plate is full! Love to be busy =)
