First of all…...let’s get this straight…..I’m not a bluthering fool.
I was asking for a SIMPLE CLEANSE…and no one answered this, but you got on the bandwagon assuming I was some “trend follower” who was going to pay outlandish fees for some clinic….or that my nutritionist was going to make a lot of money off of me.
I lost 75 lbs….three years ago. I exercise every day. I’ve kept it off. I did it all on my own with no one looking over my shoulder, no coaches… no one. What my nutritionist did was to simply say, “This is where you are going wrong….this is what you should try….” In the end she left it up to me. I saw her twice when I started. in I tweaked my own system, did a cleansing fast and I was on my way. I did the last fast in November on my own as well. I am not a lemming never have been and never will be. I figure out what I need and do it. I just wanted to know of a different cleanse, obviously no one in the fluther has done this. I have and it works. It jumpstarts your system. You feel better. I don’t recommend it. It just worked for me.
@jaytkay….......You assumed I was looking for a “quick fix”. Obviiously if I lost that much weight and kept it off, I’ve done something right. Yes, there is a lot of free advice, and I agree you don’t need a nutritonist. This nutritionist happened to be a friend who offered her advice. I didn’t seek it. I also don’t think that doctors have the be-all-end-all answer either…..I’ve seen people die under doctor’s care because they refuse to change their lifestyle and pump their bodies up with drugs that weaken their immune systems and kill them…just a bit more slowly.
And by the way,@jaytkay I am vegetarian/vegan (have been for 30 years), I exercise every day except Sunday one hour and a half…Pilates and aerobics. I have never smoked, I don’t drink, I have never taken recreational drugs. My problem has been sugar and just over-eating and hopefully, that has now been addressed. The stressful situation that caused that weight gain? I figured out a way to deal with it after I lost the weight.
I ordered Dr Hyman’s book because he has a system that is interesting. If I find his information of use to myself…..I can incorporate some of the things he is doing into my own routine. If not, I won’t.
No one should ever follow a trend….you have to do what works for you. Short cleanses work for me and I was just plumbing the collective for some variety.
