Dear Kimmifunn,

I found a great cleansing program for you. It involves a couple of slices of Marco's Pizza from Dallas. I'll see if I can hook you up, because that's just the kind of friend I am.

Hurry up and do something...this is akin to watching paint dry.

I'm growing my bangs out. Shall I keep y'all updated on that?

Kimmi--you ever read/seen "The Road to Wellville?"

Kimmi! STOP THE MADNESS!!!
STOP THE PRESS!! STOP THE PURGE!! STOP WHATEVER YOU ARE DOING!!
This Master Cleanse can be very dangerous unless performed under the right conditions. Let me give you some history on this crap.

Several things come into play here. Master Cleanse has been around for ages, but was picked up big time in Hollywood or anywhere that folks, primarily women, were to be on film and needed to lose a small amount of weight fast TEMPORARILY. AND I CANNOT EMPHASIZE TEMPORARY enuff.

People for the most part carry about 15 extra pounds of waste material in their bodies. The camera adds 10lbs to ya when a picture is taken. Therefore, starlets would go on the Master Cleanse to lose a quick 10-15lbs before a photoshoot. The Master Cleanse does do this, and the dieters would do so under their private physicians care and monitoring. As I said this was usually for a movie part or photoshoot for quick TEMPORARY weight loss. This is not a permanent diet, this is a QUICK FIX.

Once the period is over, the weight will come back on, about as fast as one would lose it. So for the average Joe or Joann, not going to be on film, or needing to get into a wedding dress, or going to a highschool reunion or whatever other hairbrained ideas folks have in their heads that they need to lose weight quick- are just wasting their time. Time will actually be the only thing that is lost, as the weight will come right back, AND you will get very sick for awhile, which could lose time from work or worse yet, your sowalcial life.

If you are insistant on doing this, look forward to mood swings, cramps, dizzyness, nasuea and all the other bells, whistles and trimmings that go with it.

I work with 1300 fat people on a daily basis. I know, because I have become one. Like veal, we are kept in small cubicles and fed all day. Tis a very stressful job with tons of food floating around at all times. Virtually everyone I work with has what we call the SallieMae Spread. We have a large number that have done the stapling, and I don't recommend that at all. I've yet to meet anyone whose life was not ruined by this method. They may be in denial if they say it hasn't, but ask their friends and family. It has.
I know of at least 20 women at work who have done the Master Cleanse and not one of them would recommend it to anyone. They all got sick. None of them did it, or could do it, under the ideal monitored conditions that the above mentioned startlets could do it. All missed work for one ailment or another. Two that I know of were taken out in wheelchairs because they passed out at their desks. Is THAT Glamorous or what?

I care about you kid. Don't do it. Please.

The only diet that works is DISCIPLINE. You have to make a lifestyle change. Last year I did the South Beach Diet, and it worked. I lost 27lbs! But I didn't make the lifestlye change, I didn't make the commitment to eating sensibly, exercising, and all that goes with it. The pounds I lost found me again.

The body can actually safely handle 3-6lbs of weight loss a month, and keep it off, if dones so gradually so your overall system can get used to it.
Do the math. Even 4lbs a month, 1lb a week- a person could lose 52lbs a year and keep it off.

What happens to most folks my age (40s) is that we don't change our lifestyle to match our body's current needs. We (I) keep eating and living like we (I) have the body and metabolism of a 20 year old.

So here's a challenge to anyone that is still awake after reading this
"diet-tribe" or tripe for that matter....
I've lost the weight before, I know I can do it again. I've learned from my mistake, I won't make it again.
There is safety and success in numbers. Its not just about weight loss but lifestlye change, DISCIPLINE and commitment.

Anyone up for the game? Let's create a healthier Sowal, one body at a time, and save the Kimmi's of the world from Master Schemes that could do more harm than good.

Don't you just love these epiphanies that come from yet another sleepless night in the life of a drunkkenartist? There, I've finally written the self-help book I've wanted to write. Now I can go on with my life and have fun again.

Which reminds me, I have pictures to post from
this weekend at the RED BAR.

So much for lifestyle change.....

I think Krystal is the way to go down here:sick:

OMG!!! That is so SAD, but RIGHT ON THE MARK.....

It is so prevalent around here they have renamed the Emerald Coast, the Crystal Coast.

Fabulous post, dka!!! I think you just might be the one to revive the old Sowell on Sowal thread. And, I think you just wrote my life story!

whatever happened to lots of water and really high fiber purge...be careful kfunn...

Did you mean Krystal Burgers or did I read between the lines and see Crystal Meth?:funn:

DA - great post. Are you sober?

...and now we know why they call that strip of beach in Destin, Crystal Beach.

DKA, well said I for one will never again partake in paned chicken samiches and Stella at the Red Bar:lie:

Kenny! Thanks for the concern and advice. I genuinely feel like after the 4th and all the drinking, eating and general bad stuff, I need a cleaning from the inside out. I was shooting for Sunday, but this may come to an end on Friday. Stay tuned...I won't take it overboard- I swear!

I do have a headache though. Ugh!:angry:

I had some colon cleanser in my cabinet that I got from the Health Food Store here and mixed up a tablespoon last night in water and drank it. It is psyllium husk which is a colon cleanser and laxative. It not only cleaned me out but caused me to bleed. And it was because I went forcefully and very fast. I got my tail chewed from my Gastroenterologist. They told me never to use anything like that. And twice since I had that happen this morning I am still seeing a small amount of bright red blood. So for those that have not tried it and are thinking about it, you might want to think twice. I was thinking maybe it would cure me of the gas problem I had been having. But instead it caused worse consequences. So I will just have to deal with the gas issues until it clears up, if ever, and hope I have done no damage to my colon.

I'm over this. Waaay over this. Btw. May cut it short.

What did you use??? We bought ours at Wild Oats Market which sells all kinds of vitamins and enzyme type things for digestion problems and organic foods. And the weird thing about the can of stuff we have at the house it says use 1 tablespoon daily in 8 ounces of water for regularity. And I have used this stuff before and it has never caused a problem. Obviously I am already messed up and that is why it caused what it did. Go figure.

:shock:

Wow. I didn't think it was possible to truly gross me out. But it has now happened.

You can't handle the poop, the whole poop and nothing but the poop?

I'm doing more of a fast. It's not my thing.

Officially over. :roll:

Go have a margarita, and thanks for not sharing the details of your cleanse attempt.;-) Or maybe Kurt should start a "Gross Health Details" forum, and I can avoid it. He needs more forums, ya know.:roll:

What's shaking in Kimmiwood?
