I lost 10 pounds on the detox diet and it's still gone after a month.

Get started with The Fast Track Detox Diet Book and The Fast Detox Diet Kit

I viewed this diet as a detox that happens to have a side-effect of losing weight. I have never had luck on diets, in fact, the more restrictive the diet, the more stressful it is, and the more my body seems to hold on to the weight! So, this approach was perfect for me. The book was a little bit self-congratulatory, and the term "miracle juice" completely turned me off (I mean, come on!). But, I decided to filter all of that out and give it a go based on the principle of detox.

During the plan, I had some parties and bbqs to attend, but I was always able to find something fulfilling to eat. I cheated and had organic coffee (just a few sips) in the mornings and some other naughty items here and there, but because the point of the diet for me was detox and not weight loss, the psychological stress of "failing" wasn't there. My body finally "let go" of the weight and is now back to a balanced state.

Because of timing, I had to do the fast on a regular work day, but I was completely fine. The book really prepares you for your one-day of fast by explaining the importance of the 7 day preparation as well as coping and therapeutic mechanisms to handle the day of fasting. Furthermore, after you finish the full detox program, you aren't left wondering what to do. Gittleman offers some lifestyle choices that you can use to continue your clean eating to maintain your new balance.

My skin is glowing and I have more energy! I plan on doing the detox at the change of every season.
