Here Is The Basics Of The Lemon Detox
Every morning, you drink lemon and water.
Then the final week, you go back down:
Altogether it’s almost 50 lemons that you drink in 2 weeks!
Very quickly we ran into some unpleasant problems.
First of all, the lemon to water ratio was a little ridiculous. One woman measured the amount of lemon juice she got from a single lemon, and it was 5 oz! (google says it should be around 2 oz) Maybe we all just bought giant lemons.
It was very sour. But some of the veteran dieters who had done an apple-cider vinegar challenge (see here the results), were already used to drinking sour stuff.
About 4 days into it, the acidic-ness of the lemons started affecting the lining in the back of our throats. All of us had raw and tender throats that burned a little while after drinking the lemon water.
At this point a few felt like it was not worth damaging their bodies to see it through. And I agree! If you try something, anything, that damages you, Stop!
Pretty much everyone stopped between day 5 and day 7, except for me. I’m a die-hard sometimes. But even with low carb and sugar-free. I gained a pound by the end of the 14 days. I will say this though. It took away all feeling of hunger. After drinking the 1+ cups of lemon water in the mornings, I wouldn’t even think about food till close to 3:00 in the afternoon! Was that the lemons? Or was it more the focus on drinking water? We don’t know…
The biggest lesson learned here is that you should not believe everything you read on the internet.
Sometimes I have felt so frustrated with my weight, that I cannot seem to lose it, and I hope to find a ‘secret to success’ diet food that if I only ate this one food, I would magically turn on my ‘fat burning system’.
So far as a group, we have tried half a dozen such items, and the best we found was Chia Seeds. And even they weren’t the “lose 20 pounds” kind of magic.
Honestly, the most effective diet that I have tried is still the keto diet. If done right, it has, and can continue to, help many people who struggle with weight loss to finally find hope. Here is my 1 week keto meal plan if you are interested in getting started.
Also for some, weight loss isn’t going to be found in dieting alone. So here is a fantastic 6 week weight loss course that combines diet and exercise that we have been pretty impressed with so far. And the money that you pay will help incentivize you to keep going when you want to quit. So Check it out Here FastER Way to Fat-Loss
So to sum it up, drinking lots of Lemon water for weight loss, will not make you skinny.
