Lemonade Diet

This is the complete Lemonade Diet including recipes. You can expect to lose anywhere from 10 to 20 pounds during the ten day diet period. The diet lasts for up to 10 days, some people stay on it for longer. Make sure you consult with your doctor before starting the Lemonade Diet.

The instructions are simple: drink about 100 ounces of the lemonade per day. Drink the salt water flush in the morning as soon as you wake up and drink the herbal laxative tea at night before bed. The Lemonade Diet is a cleansing and elimination diet, which is supposed to help rid the body of toxins along with helping you to lose weight fast.

Lemonade Diet Lemonade Recipe:

2 oz. of fresh squeezed lemon juice (must be fresh squeezed)
2 oz. of maple syrup (must be grade B, organic maple syrup)
1/4 of a teaspoon of cayenne pepper
2 cups of water (spring water or purified water)

Mix all ingredients well. This makes approximately 20 ounces of lemonade, or two servings. You will need to drink about 10 servings a day.

Salt Water Flush Recipe:

2 teaspoons salt
1 quart of water

Mix well. Allow at least 30 minutes after drinking before leaving the house. You'll need to be near the bathroom.

You can buy the Herbal Laxative Tea at most grocery stores.

During the diet , some dieters complain of diarrhea, dizziness, nausea or vomiting from the salt water flush. See a doctor immediately if any of your symptoms are severe or prolonged or cause you discomfort. Check with your physician before starting the Lemonade Diet or any other diet.

hi,
the salt flush isnt too important like some one said just used that metamusil or what ever its called.
but the lemonade thing isnt gonna leave you full, you do still need to eat . I think grape fruit is very good for loseing weight, all you need is a half for breakfast and a piece of toast and one for lunch and for dinner sallads
its easy and you wont be hungry.

Marcia - Important correction

The salt in the sal****er flush should be NONIODIZED! Regular table salt will be gross and not have the correct effect.

This is a detox, not a diet plan. The salt water flush is incredibly stupid: you will loose your potassium and calcium and most of your body's excess water, which can be good, but you may experience very painful muscle spasms without enough potassium, calcium, and sodium + chloride. Those elements make the body function. Do youself a favor and eat fresh. keep your sodium under 800 mg. a day, have a good walk 1 hour a day and you will loose weight and keep it off. That is a lifestyle a lot of people can live with.

I hated my weight the entire time growing up -- and the teenage years are especially difficult. And I had a different end-of-summer weight loss plan each year before starting school. Fact is, I was always setting myself up for disappointment. The lemonade diet doesn't work for someone who exclusively wants to lose weight. It works as a way to get healthy. The problem with it is that without a healthy mindset, it turns into punishing yourself by not eating.
The sad truth I realized is that until you accept your body as it is and love yourself regardless of your weight (I sound like a fortune cookie! Forgive me), you will struggle losing weight. That is because with every attempt, you are punishing yourself. The best thing I can recommend for you is to thank your body for all the wonderful things it does for you rather than blaming it for the bullying. Getting bullied is the bully's problem, not your body's. Once you concentrate on nourishing your body with healthy foods out of love, it will become so much easier to lose weight naturally. Find an exercise you enjoy rather than torturing yourself at the gym doing the stairmaster (at least that's my idea of torture). Once you are working with your body rather than against it, you will see results. And you'll be happier with the results because they came with respecting and loving your body, no matter what anyone else says.

amanda - even better than this diet...

|2008-08-21 21:11:50

if you people want to try this diet, have fun. want to know how i stay 115 pounds? (im 5'7 by the way)... take a 2 litre pitcher or pop bottle, add 500ml of concentrated lemon juice (any store has it) fill with water, and honey if you want to sweeten... drink the full bottle or pitcher over the course of the day. Good foods for snacking are salads, celery, watermelon, apples, citrus fruits... it seems to work terrifically for myself, and 2 friends of mine who do so as well... good luck

no, you cannot eat at all. The thing about this diet is that the main purpose isn't weight loss. That just happens naturally. The goal is to get your body running back to normal. Imagine filling your car's gas tank with cheap gas all the time, and never changing the oil. The car will not run as well as if you use high grade gas and had the gunky oil flushed out regularly.

By flushing all the junk out of your body over 10 days, your metabolism kicks up, your body burns fuel faster, you learn to appreciate healthy food when you get off of it, and you lose all the junk your body is holding on to.

I've used this diet numerous times to get back to the weight I want to be at and to just have more energy and feel healthy when I indulge in too much garbagey food for too long.

Lena - To Vanessa...the salt water

|2008-08-20 13:18:11

Vanessa, I didn't do the salt water flush. I bought Metamucil and drank one a day in the morning instead. Tastes much better and does the same thing as the salt water flush is supposed to do. The salt water flush helps with getting the toxins out by moving things along. Metamucil does it too. Only once a day though. The goal is detox and getting your body to get off of additives and all the junk in processed foods so your metabolism gets back to normal and works better, not abusing laxatives.

You are not supposed to eat on this diet. I did it for 10 days and lost 10lbs and ate just one day. I gained 3 pounds. So I'm back on it. It's hard...really hard, but if you are adamant on losing and nothing else has worked, this will give you that added boost...Good luck...
