Weight Loss Success Story

I was the perfect weight most of my life, and ate whatever I wanted. Until I hit 40. My metabolism changed, and as I have no self-control over food, my weight crept up..and up..

After several years of this, looking gross, nothing in my wardrobe fit me anymore (no matter that it fiited only last week) and feeling rather unhealthy, I made a decision to get healthy. I didn't believe I could do anything about my weight, because of my lack of self-control. I'd already tried a few diets and strategies and nothing had worked.

And forget exercise, not my cup of tea at all.

I researched natural health and alternative health on the net, and discovered toxins and the terrible effects they can have on our bodies. That all made a lot of sense to me. We ingest around 1,000 toxins each day and the key to health is to eliminate them, on on-going basis.

So I devised my own diet, which started off with a juice detox, followed by a detox diet. I was quite ill for the first week or so, however that was OK as my research had showed that the detox process can do weird things to you. The more toxins and the the more effective the detox, the stronger the symptoms can be.

Just by chance, I weighed myself after 10 days and couldn't believe that I'd lost 13lbs/6kgs. I was feeling heaps better by then, and within a month I was sleeping less, had loads more energy and was still losing weight.

The reason this diet worked for me is because I didn't need any self-control. Once the addictive chemicals from foods were cleared from my body, I no longer wanted those foods. That made it really easy to say "no, thanks" to chocolate or whatever - something I could never resist before.

Within 5 months I'd lost 35lbs/16 kgs and was back to the weight I was when I was 20. And healthier than I'd ever been.
