ok, sure happy to help! have you read any articles on it yet? to get just a general idea on what its all about?
walking is THE most underrated exercise there is!!! Next is swimming, it is a total full body cardio that makes your body look amazing, if you do it regularly! I used to be a swimmer, I come from a swimming family, and my body looked best then!Yeah, I've come across various versions of it described online. haha.
And speaking of exercise, I need to start getting back into shape as well. I should start running or something. .... Or maybe I'll start with taking a walk everyday. lol

ok so first thing about the lemonade diet, it is intended to be a master clense for the body, not a diet to loose weight, so I have to ask what do you want to try it for, clearing out toxins mainly, weight, or both?
2nd, i HIGHLY HIGHLY suggest you do NOT drink the laxative teas that you are supposed do drink during the diet. Yes they help flush out more stuff and more pounds, but as other peeps wrote on here, its not good for your body at all. Also, my friends could not leave the bathroom in the morning till it was all out, so forget going to work or getting anything done, overall its a big no, no for me on this part of the diet! did you want to drink the laxative teas?
Alright, coming close to quitting this whole "ultimate cleanse" thing. I do not know if I am still cleansing, but I am not getting the "recommended 2-3 a day bowl movements". More like 10 times that amount. Anyone with enough experience to know if I should ride this out, or if it remains this horrible? I not only don't feel like a working out or going for a jog, but don't feel like walking up stairs! WTF?
If you can...learn what healthy diet actually consists of, you will get vastly superior results to people who [use a cleanse]. Most suppliments are total bullshit. Diet and exercise are THE ONLY WAY!
Self quotes are underused and under-appreciated....
Point made. I should just back off this "shit".

Breakfast turned into my favorite meal. Getting that good start is key to how the rest of your day processes and puts out. Water is very key also, as well as not eating before you go to bed.
good glad to hear we are thinking the same. I did the lemonade diet just to flush my body out and drop some weight, without the harsh side effects of cleansing and laxatives. It is recommended as a cleanse for 10 days. I did it for 5 and then stopped. Since you will be only drinking this stuff if you decide to do it, you will drop the weight, and then slowly starting to integrate whole foods again will result in a couple of pounds there. I would recommend starting to exercise regularly and changing your diet if you really want to loose weight. I have lost about 18 pounds this last year and finally am happy and healthy, and weight has been an issue for me all my life. Most of the weight dropped from changes in diet, simple stuff because 60% of your weight is what you eat. So if you want tips or anything, be glad to help if I can. I would suggest doing the lemonade diet on the weekends as a meal substitute or just one weekend a month, and it will make you tired so you should be home and not working. But it helps with the weight. Let me know if there are other suggestions you want me to share, good luck!!!I am not a fan of laxatives. Never have been. I am trying to lose weight, about 15-20 pounds. But I do not intend to lose weight through a cleanse. Though, I might switch to eating just fruits for a few weeks which I know would cause me to lose weight, but at least I'd be nourished.
Darn I thought I posted a reply to this, it must have not worked.
I am starting a fast today actually. For about a week I'll be drinking only water and tea. Then next weekend I'll incorporate fresh fruit juice into the fast. And then the week after that I'll add in vegetables and protein to bring myself back to a more realistic diet.
I'm going to try to get outside a lot more as well and take walks and make sure I get as much sunlight as possible. Might start doing yoga again. Idk. I've been stressing out over having to get rid of my plants so my anxiety has been going through the roof. :/ Hopefully fasting will help me gain some self control and I can work my way through the loss of a potentially successful first grow.
