Ernie,
Eating the right foods along with drinking plenty of water is "colon cleansing" naturally everyday but...
A colon cleanse program usually last 30 days
Ernie | 01.30.09 - 3:36 pm
All of your information really makes sense-my question for you is that being a single mom, my time is jam-packed, and things like food prep and exercise fall by the wayside. Do you have any suggestions for an effective exercise (short and quiet maybe lol) as it will be done while my son is asleep. Also, how easy would it be to incorporate these ideas into a "kid friendly" plan to encourage healthy eating as well prevent child obesity?

Carolyn,
I'm not a doctor or an OB/GYN but has you or your OB/GYN looked at the BMI & height weight charts here?
Your BMI is healthy and YES... you are overweight according to the chart but by only 10 pounds -NOT 27!
Now I'm not saying you should substitute my advice for your OB/GYN's advice because I'm not a doctor but I'm just puzzled as to why you need to lose 27 pounds?
You already have a good looking figure and losing that much may turn you into a stick so to answer your questions...
Nothing is wrong with you and you're only 10 pounds overweight - nothing to be alarmed about and you need this weight loss plan to lose those last 10 pounds
'K. Kind of a long story, but better to have more info than necessary than not enough!
So, I am a STRICT vegetarian and have been since March... meaning no fish, chicken, beef, pork, deer, elk... if it bleeds out, it's not for me! Every now and then I do have a chocolate protein bar (closest thing to junk in the house). I eat breakfast every morning, high protein cereal with low-fat soy milk and craisins and a cup of Acai berry juice. I never eat past 8 PM, though Iam in school until 10 PM (home around 11).
I sleep approx. 6 hours/night. I also have imposed a strict high protein low fat diet since August... 50g protein/day, 20g fat (or less)... I work out about 3 days/week (weights and cardio, but abs I do 5 days/week) but I also work 40 hours/week AND go to college full time... also take the bus everywhere and walk (that isn't included in my workout schedule). I take an aruvedic colon health supplement, as well as Calcium and a regular women's multivitamin.
My problem is I am 5' 3" and weigh 137 pounds! I do have a very "curvy" figure (36DD, 27.5, 36.5) but my OB/GYN told me to lose 27 more pounds... the problem is, I can't do it. I have health issues that prevent me from taking any diet pills/drinks that would be high in stimulants... As far as I know, I have normal blood work and no thyroid problems...
I'm 24 and overweight... what's wrong with me???
Er also, in terms of water...
I drink about 90 oz a day... yes, I drink 1 diet soda in the AM, and sometimes right before the late class I have 1 8 oz cup of black coffee, but that's it... so the water helps, I've heard... if you're dehydrated your metabolism can drop, but I'm def not dehydrated...

i am 23 years old, approx.5'7'' and i weigh 215lbs.most of my weight is carried in my stomach and lower back area.i do not have regular bowel movements(approx. ONCE every few days). my eating habits arent that great, i have just started exercising and trying to watch what i eat, and eat 3-4 times a day, instead of the 1-2 large meals a day i would eat. i am feeling a bit overwhelmed and am curious if you could break things down for me, also would a colon cleanse be a good idea?
thanks
racheld | 10.27.08 - 2:20 am
Kris,
Yes - colon cleansers help people like you who've been eating bad lose weight quickly but remember...
Switching to weight loss foods while Eating the right amount of calories can also clean your colon just as well & helping you lose a lot of weight at the beginning and BTW...
Dual Action Cleanse is a good colon cleanser
Thank You
Kris | 10.17.08 - 1:05 am
jz,
The answer to your question depends on "How BAD" you may or may not have been eating before you start this diet so...
If you been eating a lot of bad foods while not drinking any water then yes...
You will lose weight or waste faster but...
If you've been eating pretty clean like weight loss foods then you'll still lose weight - You just wont get that 5-to-10 pound weight loss jump start in the first 1-to-2 weeks
jz | 10.11.08 - 4:03 am
GRace,
Before you do any colon cleansing or any other weight loss method...
Read why you can't lose weight first so you can correct your weight loss problems
Hi Adrian
First and foremost I would like to thank you for taking your time and answering our questions. I am currently very frustrated and at my wits end. I started working out on July 10 doing 5-6 days a week of alternating cardio and strength training. At first I wasn't eating well but i wasn't eating Junk either, but when I discovered I had gained 6 pounds 4 weeks later I started eating better. For the past 2 weeks I have been eating lots of fruits and salads and still working out but haven't lost any weight either, so there is something I am definetly doing wrong. I was thinking perhaps I should stop and start over with a colon cleanse then continue with my diet and excercise plan and maybe start taking a fat burner? I am really frustrated and thinking of just quitting all together. A personal trainer said that I needed a personal trainer to get results but i can't afford that at the moment. Finally how long should i do your excercises for? and are there any excercises i can do at the gym? I am 5'11 and currently weigh 230. Please help Grace

Just follow the same exercise plan you did before to lose weight and if you ever stop losing weight - Look at 10 ways to quickly break out of a weight loss plateau and/or contact me for more help
hey adrian,
i struggeled with weight since i was in middle school. i always had a sedentary life with a weight of 150 punds till last november. i started going to the gym and eating healthy and i lost like 10 pounds in less than 4 weeks.i felt great and started getting in shape. however, i traveled for like a month and half and gained up to 30pounds. i just started the gym again and im following a diet based on fruit and veggies to clean my body from all the bad food i used to eat. my question is : in order for me to lose the weight should i follow the same exercise and diet that i did before or do something different knowing that i used to work out for 2 to 3 hours a day?
my height is 5'7 and my actual weight is 170

MJ lover,
All cleansing is Eating the right weight loss foods while drinking only water and it doesn't have to be lots of water and the key thing to cleansing is...
Avoiding all the bad foods that make you gain weight and...
Weight loss exercises that make you sweat also speed up the cleansing process
And could I OnLY eat fruit/veggies and water instead of eating rice and stuff?
MJ lover | 07.28.08 - 12:20 am
Melissa,
With Dr. Suzanne's plan it'll be like it's someone there guiding you step by step thru the cleansing process clearing up all confusion and...
You only need to cleanse ONCE if after you cleanse - You just stick to a natural diet by eating weight loss foods but...
If after you cleanse and You go back to eating a lot of bad foods then you'll have to cleanse your body again
Melissa | 07.26.08 - 6:22 am
Janet,
YES this is safe for anyone because... You colon cleanse basically by eating right which means drinking water, eating more fruits & veggies, lean proteins and other complex carbs - See all weight loss foods here.
The only thing a 15 year old shouldn't do is take colon cleansing pills since at that young age all they need to do is eat right to flush out toxins
Janet | 07.14.08 - 10:56 am
Adrianna,
YES - Eating these weight loss foods and exercising is what you need to be doing to lose weight anyway
Adrianna | 07.11.08 - 1:35 pm
Sallie,
You previously asked "how many calories should i eat a day?" and when you used the permanent weight loss calculator here it basically told you...
** Eat 1416 - 1916 calories a day to lose weight and that's really the only thing and the main thing you need to worry about but...
**it is better to eat smaller meals to speed up your metabolism by eating Five smaller 283.2 - 383.2 calorie meals every 2-3 hours and to keep your diet balanced...
**Eat Eat 13.4 - 26.8 grams of protein or 52-to-104 calories of proteinin each of your 5 meals and...
**The 2416 calories is the amount of calories you eat to maintain your weight and since you're not trying to do that...
**focus on doing the most important thing which is eating 1416 - 1916 calories a day to lose weight and...
Every time you lose 5 pounds - you'll need to do the calculator again.
If you still need more help -don't hesitate to ask me for help
i don't get it, it says i have to eat 2416 cal a day to stay at my current weight.. but whats all this part?
To lose 1 - 2 pounds a week
* Eat 1416 - 1916 calories a day and...
* Eat Five 283.2 - 383.2 calorie meals every 2-3 hours to speed up your metabolism and...
* Eat 13.4 - 26.8 grams of protein in each of your 5 meals

Sallie,
use the permanent weight loss calculator here to get an accurate amount of calories you need to eat to lose weight and you'll never annoy me as long as you're asking me questions related to making you look better
Sallie,
You want to avoid as much sugar as you can when trying to lose weight
Sallie | 06.16.08 - 10:28 pm
Sallie | 06.16.08 - 10:23 pm
liz,
Of course - you don't need colon cleansing supplements if you eat more raw fruits & vegetables, nuts and lean meats while drinking plenty of water.
Colon cleanse supplements contain natural herbs and fibers (the same fiber you can get from fruits & veggies) that help you cleanse and you only need colon cleanse supplements if you're not going to completely change your eating habits and/or you're having less than 1-to-2 bowel movements a day
just wondering...can you still go on the colon cleanse without taking supplements? what exactly is in the supplements and can i duplicate the effect without taking them?
liz | 06.16.08 - 6:20 pm
Terry,
It's really nothing to worry about because all you're really doing is avoiding junk food while eating more complex carbs & high fiber foods like more raw fruits, veggies, oatmeal and lean proteins like fish plus drinking more water so....
Really it's almost a NO effort weight loss plan where you don't have to exercise but if you do exercise you will of course lose more weight
this sounds like a really good plan, but the only thing is, i'm not entirely sure how fast it will work, and how much i could loose...it says you could loose 20 or up to 50, and i do know it depends on how much junk you eat, but i'm just worried.
Terry | 06.15.08 - 8:35 pm
starr,
Sorry - I don't know of any colon cleansing products that ship to canada but you can do a search on google for it and..
You can still drink shakes and have shrimp but I would stay away from pastas and if you eat bread then eat wheat bread and only complex unprocessed carbs
also doing this cleansing, is it all right to eat bread, pastrami slices, and even shrimp?? I drink 200 calorie shakes twice a day, so would I have to stop drinking them?
starr | 06.07.08 - 8:12 pm
Sallie,
It may not be normal but I know some people's bodies get adjusted to eating healthier and then react funny when they "shock" their bodies by eating bad foods all of a sudden but... I would have a doctor check this out if anything serious happens or then again - it could have been something bad in the food
Sallie | 06.07.08 - 8:43 am
Anamika,
Even if you can't find colon cleansing supplements - Still try eating mainly the foods on this page - the water, fruits, veggies, fiber foods, and other complex carbs to still get a good colon cleansing
Anamika | 06.03.08 - 3:19 pm
Lasey,
NO - eating TOO Much and not exercising at all puts on weight - eating simple carbs like sugar, white bread and other processed foods make you gain weight by causing spikes in your blood sugar that makes you feel hungry quicker making you eat too much but unprocessed complex carbs like brown rice suppresses yor hunger maiking you not eat as much so you'll lose weight.
Lasey | 06.03.08 - 10:15 am
Teeza,
The amount of weight you lose and how fast you lose with this weight loss plan depends highly on how much crap(waste & toxins) in your body combined with how overweight you are so for example...
If you ate bad foods, had less than 1 bowel movement a day, and you're overweight then YES - you may be able to lose 20 pounds in 30 days but if not then DOn't expect to lose that much and...
Tae-bo is good and it may help speed up the colon cleansing process a little bit.
Teeza | 06.03.08 - 10:14 am
Sallie,
You do want to watch your salt intake but on this diet you don't have to worry about "watching" your salt intake because with the types of foods you eat plus the water the salt is really a Non-factor in how much weight you lose or gain but I'm also not saying you can go overboard and eat as many salty foods you like
Sallie | 06.02.08 - 5:18 am
Sallie,
The green tea is fine but not the sugar
Sallie | 06.01.08 - 1:49 am
Usually if your diet was crappy in the first place then... YES - just the diet of water, veggies, fruits and other natural foods, lean meats is enough for a colon cleanse
Anamika | | 05.30.08 - 3:56 pm
Anamika,
YES - in your case using colon cleansing pills like ColonCure,
Dual Action Cleanse,
or
ColonMate will make a big difference in your appearance and you should also drink plenty of water + eat plenty ra fruits and veggies to maximize your colon cleaning
Anamika | 05.29.08 - 10:50 am
Sallie,
That's correct - eating these foods while eating the right amount of calories to lose weight is the basic way to lose weight and I don't know too much about subway's menu to judge it as good or bad but fast food places are generally bad in my opinion if you're trying to lose weight
Sallie | 05.27.08 - 7:56 am
Sallie,
Basically what it all boils down to when cleansing your body for fast weight loss is to avoid all junk foods, fast foods, sugars, and alchol and as for a diet plan -Just keep your calories in check by seeing how much you can eat to lose weight or maintain your weight

pilot's wife in Korea,
Are you eating the right amonut of food to lose weight? go here to check to see if you're doing that right
I wouldn't take Alli See this as to why and also...
Just becasue the Alli binds with the FAT you eat doesn't mean you can overeat and expect to lose weight - I suspect you'll do much better off the Alli
Dil ,
1. If your diet is bad from eating too much junk foods and sodas and processed foods or..
2. If you have infrequent bowel movements like less than 1 a day.
You can colon cleanse with fruits, veggies, water and avoiding everything in #1 or by taking colon cleanse supplements

Dil | 05.04.08 - 8:27 pm
marisa,
As far as colon cleansing and how long it'll take you to lose 20 pounds doing it depends on a lot of things mainly like...
1. how much you weigh and...
2. how bad or junk your diet is now and...
3. How many bowel movements you have daily and...
Yes... Just by mainly eating more healthy foods like veggies, fruits and beans, lentis, Rye crackers, Rice cakes, Oatcakes, and the fish plus drinking water will all help colon cleanse the body and...
Regular exercise that causes you to break a sweat also cleanses your body and it'll help you lose 20 pounds faster
marisa | 04.30.08 - 8:32 pm
Arizona,
Why not do both?
Exercise to burn more calories and lift weights to burn calories, and build muscle that raises your metabolism
Have you seen how J-Lo lost 40 pounds after having her baby?
Arizona | 04.21.08 - 7:56 pm
Dane,
Green tea or any fat burners with green tea in them will help you burn fat faster while on any diet 0r exercise program
Dane | 04.14.08 - 8:17 am
Dane,
Colon cleansing may not and probably WILL NOT help you that much since you're already having regualar bowel movements.
See other weight loss methods here

The master cleanser diet will work for anybody but... You will probably gain back all the weight you lose on this diet so if I were you... I would Start on a more permanent weight loss program

Click here for ColonMate

Ryan,
I've personallly seen great results from colon cleansing on the 2nd day but...
Everybody is different and I'll say that... You should start seeing results within 5-to-7 days.
Ryan | 03.29.08 - 7:49 pm
Doriana,
It depends on how bad your diet was before you started cleansing - Usally the more bad stuff you eat(like sugar, junk food, candy, fast food) and the IN-frequency of your bowel movements determine if you need those colon supplements so...
If you're NOT having 1 bowel movement a day then I you'll definitely get good weight loss benefits will a colon supplement but if you're having a bowel movement everyday and eating pretty good then...
You may not need the pill and I'm sure you'll lose weihgt eating just the veggies and fruit
I hope this helps- contact me again if you have any more questions
if not take any supplement stuff like PureBodyCleanse..but just by eating raw vege & fruit only to clean my colon, do i can loss that amount?
Doriana | 03.10.08 - 2:31 am
Princess,
You need to find a way to stop smoking because trying to clean out your body while smoking is like having someone throw dirt into house while you're trying to clean up your house - It's never going to get done so instead of trying to lose weight by cleansing your body - go here and pick another weight loss method or weight loss program
WHAT IF YOU ARE A SMOKER AND CANT STOP SMOKING FOR THE CLENSE?
