Acai Berry & Colon Cleanse for Weight Loss

Remember the juice people are telling you about costs well over $100 a month even at only 4 oz a day and the people here who have recommended it are selling it. Miracle weight loss stuff doesn't work. I have lost and gained 80lbs many times over the years and I am afraid that the only thing that really works is change in lifestyle.

If you're interested in using Acai berries to better your health as well as lose some weight, I would suggest MonaVie. It is a combination of over a dozen fruits and is a juice. Pills are not easy for your body to digest. The juice is wonderful. You only drink 4oz a day (2 in the am, 2 in the pm). It tastes really good and is great for overall health. I have heard that it has helped some with weight loss as well. Let me know if you want more info.

Monavie is the way to go. I had gained 30 lbs from being on steroids for 3 yrs for my asthma. The way I found out that this juice was a weight loss help happened by accident. I was given a bottle by a friend who knew I was suffering from my asthma horribly. I started drinking just 4 oz a day, and I didn't change my eating habits (even tho i should!lol). My asthma just disappeared. I havent had to take any of my asthma meds in over 8 months. In the meantime, I noticed I had been losing weight. I got on the scale at my regular doc visit and found that I had dropped 23 lbs! Plus my doctor was amazed at my lung improvement. I agree, try Monavie. It was featured on The Doctors Show, and they gave everyone in the audience a complimentary bottle. I have a free bottle if you want to just try it.

Hi T.,

I don't know much about that. Also, I don't know how much you are trying to loose. But I have great luck with Adipex. Adipex is so powerful it can help one loose hundred's of pounds pretty quickly. My weight has always fluctuated, never getting very heavy really- just heavier than I wanted to be. I am a size 6 now, and trying to keep a 6. With this medicine- I oculd easily get to a size 1, but I do not want to be that small. So I don't take it too often anymore. I must say, it does give me incredible amount of drive to get things done. That is one of the wonderful things about it. Also, most Drs. won't presribe it very easily. Email back if you want to talk about it.

Good luck,

A.

if you do a cleanse be sure to take probiotics-- it's the live culture in yogurt. you can either eat yogurt (be sure it says with active live cultures) or you can buy an acidophilus or probiotic supplement from the refrigerator section at the health food store. when you cleanse all the bacteria from your colon you get rid of the bad stuff and the good stuff, and you have to balance it back out, and the probiotics help restore the right balance in your intestines. and you have to eat lots of fruits and vegetables, and drink twice as much water as usual. if you don't, your body will be releasing lots of toxins and then just absorbing them again, so you have to drink lots of water to flush the toxins out.

i used a colon cleanse a year or two ago, and did lose some flab from my legs :) it made me feel healthier and was worth it. just remember that diet is important too.

no matter what diet you do, drink lots and lots of water. also remember that anything promising extreme amounts of weight loss in a short amount of time is not a good idea. take your time, and celebrate a few pounds at a time!

I also have tried the Acai Burn and have not been satisfied. I was disappointed when I recieved it because the actual Acai is not even the 1st ingredient it is the 3rd. I think the actual berry pills or liquid is actually much stronger. I also found a sight that has just the berry and it is in a powder form that you can put in your drinks or food. If you would like I can send you that information. I have not tried it yet but I think I might because it is advertised as more pure.
I have not tried the colon cleansing but I also read that that works wonders on the weight loss.

I will never argue about the fact our colons are filled with junk that should probably not be there.
I found over the years of trying a variety of ways to lose weight the best way is to balance your diet. Eat 6 times a day and do get some type of exercise even if it is nothing more than walking a mile a day or riding a bike (even a stationary one) for a mile a day.
The best weight loss diet I have ever seen is the diabetic weight loss diet my mother was on 33 years ago. The second best diet I have seen is the Air Force diet, which is remarkably similiar to the original diabetic weight loss diet and the third one is the Eating For Life diet.
It is true the weight comes off slower, but if you stick to it long enough to get down to your desired weight and then go to the balance diet you will find two things to be true; the weight will stay off longer and you have trained yourself to eat correctly so your body can actually burn off the fats, etc., the way it was designed to work.
You get one or two days a week off of the diet with Eating For Life to "pig-out" and you will find as time goes on you will eat less junk because it just doesn't taste right.
I love chocolate, chips, and pecan pie! In the last year I have found a small piece of chocolate if I simply think I will die if I don't have it satisfys the yearning and would rather have semi-sweet chocolate because it isn't as sweet. You can make fudge with bakers chocolate, splenda, and margine in the microwave. You can make stain glass candy with corn syrup, splenda, and any flavoring you want to add to satisfy those urges.
Cookies, cakes, etc., can be made without sugar if you desire to munch on them as well. I add raisins, nuts, and flavorings to them too.
A doctor once told me if I was really craving something sweet to eat a dill pickle. I thought he was crazy. It works. I now keep a jar of baby dills in the refrigerator for those occasions. By the way, you can eat a jar of dill pickles if you want, all the raw cauliflower, broccoli, celery, lettuce, and radishes you can handle and it has no effect on calorie intake per the original diabetic and Air Force diets.
I tried what you are preparing to do. I lost some weight, but once I stopped taking all the pills etc., the weight came right back on.
Good luck, I'm praying for you.

I dont know about the berry pills or the colon cleanse but I have lost 84 lbs in a little less than a year by taking shots and water pills. I started out under a doctors care by taking HCTZ (water retention pill) and taking vitamin B along with lipo. Of course you have to watch what you eat I just cut out all white starch foods, fast food, fried and every once in a while I had a cookie as I made progress. today I am at the weight I was when I was 20 and feel so much better! I also exercise I walk 1 mile a day and do some work with 5 lb weights. I have excess skin from being 46 my skin is not as it used to be but I am working on that. I just like to share this because it truly saved my life, (heart disease and diabetes runs in my family, both parents were diabetic) if you want cant find a doctor in your area you can also go to www.mydietsolutions.com I now buy my shots from there. Good luck and let me know if you find out anymore about what you are trying. If I can do this anyone can! all you have to do is be committed and really want to change your lifestyle, by eating properly and getting up and moving around with exercise or even just walking and vitamin B is excellent for anyone to take it helps the liver in many ways I am told.

I got the same two products and ended up getting too busy to use them but take note. I signed up for a "free" trial, but little did I see in the "little fine print" at the very bottom of the page that if you don't call within "x" number of days they charge you like $70-80. Luckily I noticed the activity on my credit card right after the "free" trial and was able to get it refunded, but it wasn't without several calls and lots of head aches. So be aware and make sure to double check your statment.
On a different note, I used a product called Soloslim and saw excellent results as did my mother and mother-in-law. It is an appetite suppresser and increases your metabolism. soloslim.com is their website but you can buy it off of ebay a little cheaper. I used that with regular diet and excersize and lost about 18 lbs in 3 months. My m-law has lost 30 lbs in about 2 months, as she is a little bigger than I. Good luck!!

hello i have taken the acai berry caps. for three weeks and i have lost 8 pounds. I hope it continues to work. I have not done the cleanse but I do eat the yougurt and it helps to have a good BM every day.

Careful on the colon cleanses b/c they can do harm to your system. They do cleanse out the 'bad' stuff, but they also take away the 'good' stuff. Our digestive sytem is a large part of our immune system with good bacteria, etc. (I'm not in the medical field, but I did research on this for one of my clients awhile back.)

In regards to weight loss, my company does have an easy to use product that has a money-back guarantee. It's nutritionally based and does not cause negative side effects, or contain caffeine or other 'negative' products. Let me know if you'd like more info.

T.,
LOL, I just started taking both of them today! We'll have to keep in touch and update one another on our progess.
Good luck.

I have only heard that cleanses don't do anything for weight loss. Starting a new diet with a cleanse is a waste of time and money. The companies that sell them tout them as miracles, but nutritionists, dietitians and weight-loss experts don't agree.
