How to lose weight by following a detox cleansing diet

By | Apr 26, 2011 | 0 Comments | Rating: 0

Congratulations! You've just taken the biggest step towards detox cleansing and losing weight. The rest is a cake walk. Well maybe not a cake walk but you can defnately do it.

Are you feeling drained/ Beat down? Constantly getting sick? Then maybe you need to detox cleanse your body of harmful toxins. Detox cleansing Most detox programs last 7-30 days. It is not uncommon to lose anywhere from 10-20 lbs. in a short time. plus, revitalize your energy levels and overall health and vitality. Below I've laid out my 30 day blue print of how I successfully detox cleanse my body and lose weight fast. so buckle up!

 First thing is first. Before you do anything you need to take measurements of yourself and your habits. first thing you need to do is record your weight, waist measurement, neck measurement, arm measurement (around bicep) and thigh measurement (middle of your thigh). Next thing you need to do is take a quick fitness test. Record how many push-ups, sit-ups and how long you can run. It doesn't matter what the actual number is (even if it's one or two), you just want to give yourself a starting point to work from. The next thing to do is for 3 days record everything you normally eat. Yes it is tedious and annoying but trust me the before and after will be worth it. The last thing to do is take a picture of yourself in a bathing suit. Make sure you put all this info in a journal and keep it to yourself.


Water/Juice Fast: The next step in this awesome process is a water/juice fast. The best way to kick start any detox program or rapid weight loss program is to fast. This triggers your body to start burning fat you've stored for fuel. You definitely want to consult a doctor prior to any fasting program. I would suggest that water/juice fast for no less than 4 days. Now during this fasting process you are only allowed to have water and fruit juices. You want to limit your fruit juices to no later than 3pm and only 20 oz per day in total. You also want to make sure you get plenty of rest (don't worry you will be tired). If you can fast for longer that's great but you must fast at least 4 days and no more than 10 days. This is the most difficult step in the whole process but it's the most important. Not only does your body turn into a fat burning furnace but during the fast your stomach will actually shrink in size. So stay positive and don't cheat!

Once you've Finished your fast give your self a pat on the back. Now your next task is to Build a new diet plan. Your diet should consist of fruits, vegetables, vitamins, fiber, grains, rices, beans, nuts and lean chicken or turkey breast. A blender will be a useful tool for this process. You should also plan to have 5 meals per day consisting of 3 main meals and 2 smaller/snack meals. This will keep you metabolism high and help burn more calories during the day. also make sure you drink plenty of water. I usually try to drink at least 3 liters-1 gallon of water per day. this may sound like a lot but you need this water to help break down food and remove more toxins from your body. Finally make sure you are taking a high quality multivitamin. Also you need to take a fat burning pill. I've got links below for products that I use with great success.

Your next task is to get your butt to a gym. Some people try to workout at home and that's fine. But for me I know that I will not work out at home (tend to watch t.v more than working out) so I have to go to the gym. If you've never been to the gym before or if you don't exactly know what your doing then I would suggest you seek out a personal trainer. Your gym should have a couple personal trainers on staff that can help you. You whole goal is to start building up muscle. The great thing about building muscle is that muscle burns fat 24 hours a day! Here is the link to my exercise program that you can implement yourself. The last thing you need to do is cardio. Honestly cardio sucks but it's necessary to lose weight and cleanse your body of toxins. I try to mix it up between the treadmill and the elliptical. You need to burn a minimum of 3500 calories per week. Why 3500 calories a week? Well 1 pound of fat equals 3500 calories so in order to lose weight and clean your body of harmful toxins you need to burn at least that much per week. Personally I burn 7000 calories per week doing cardio (1000 calories per day 7 days per week) but do what works for you.

Track your progress! Your doing great! Take another picture of yourself. Im sure by now your seeing and feeling results. Your energy level is through the roof and you've never felt better. Congratulations your doing it! Reward yourself with a cheat day at the end of your program. Leave me a comment on your progress. I look forward to reading about your success.
