There is this amazing Weight Loss Program that worked for my husband. The thing is, it's all natural so it is safe. It is more like a juice diet program which gives you a step by step plan to help you lose weight, cleanse your body of toxins, look terrific and boost your energy levels all through the natural goodness of juicing in just seven (7) short days.

It's called the Jump Start 7 Day Weight Loss program. My husband bought it online a month ago. I've checked the site again and they are having a limited time offer - a 70% off. I really hope this works for you too. Please do check the link below.

Hi StayHealthy2009,

21Lbs in 7 days, I would be very skeptical of this one unless they paid me enough money to make me a believer.

C'mon even Americans would not believe there was anything good about this diet, it's rubbish and if you lose weight that quick you invariably put it back on within a short time. Does anyone know the maximum weight you can lose by not eating at all for 7 days?

I couldn't wait for you lot so I did a little research while I was typing this one and here is a bit of it.

"How much weight can you lose by not eating for a week?
In: Diet and Weight Loss

I tried it. Firstly I must say I do not have an addictive personality or focus much on my body or looks. I did it in an attempt to try and personally understand friends of mine. I started at 176lbs and initial weight loss was quick probably due to emptying my body of the waste (poo) over the first couple of days. I drank only water and tea, white with one, as I normally would. I did my normal work involving moderate exercise and lost 11lbs, not even a stone! Worrying and unexpected symptoms nearing the 7 days were: problems with vision flickering & focusing; giddiness and fatigue started very early when exertion was needed. NOTE: Half the weight was back on with in a couple of days. Loosing weight fast is not a viable method for people who need to loose weight, and is Definitely Very Dangerous to people who have little weight to loose. Ravonseed.

Actually, your metabolism will go into "starvation mode" and slow down. This is why recovering anorexics gain more weight back than they originally had before the eating disorder. Trust me; I've been there"


http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_much_weight_...ting_for_a_week

Did you notice the result? - he didn't even lose as much weight as this fellow in the add by not eating anything at all. The difference between what this fellow claims he lost 21 lbs to 11lbs is almost double, maybe the weight was in his beard, he is clean shaven at the end.

You can see by this we have another diet guru trying to get rich quickly at the expense of the academically challenged with too much disposable income.

In Australia the Government is about to crack down on fraudulent health gurus, in order to control our out of control obesity epidemic, they are about to make the weight loss people prove their diet work before they will be licenced to advertise it, could you imagine how many people would be put out of business in America.

Here are a few abstracts for the more serious reader.

Hi John,

Thank you for your very informative reply. I can't blame you for being skeptical, I felt the same when my husband bought the book online. But it did some amazing results on his weight loss and general health in particular. The book provides some guide on how to deal with the craving for food when the program is over so you will not gain back the weight you lost. Of course it takes a great deal of discipline to make it work.

This program is not about starving yourself. This is about juicing to your health. One of the most amazing things about this program is that even though you are not eating solid food, it is very rare that you ever get hungry during the seven days. One of the main reason for this because your body is being flooded with than it has ordinarily been used to. The nutrition, minerals, vitamins and living enzymes your body receives in the seven days is equivalent to three to four months of eating the dead and empty foods the average person eats. Since you are getting super nutrition by using this program, your body has no craving for food because you are giving it more than enough nutrients in order for it to function in its most efficient manner.

Well but of course before you take any diet program, it's best that you consult your doctor first.

Thanks.

Will you regain back the weight you lost after the program?

The answer is simple, it is really up to you.

Because the body’s metabolism slows down during the seven days, it is relatively easy to regain some of your weight back after the program. Maintenance of weight loss depends on lifestyle change.

Most people are overjoyed by what they lost during the Jump Start 7 Day Juice Program and determined not to regain that weight. If you reintroduce your now clean, lean, youthful body back to the empty, dead, processed and junk food lifestyle you once lived, then yes, the weight will happily come back. The good news is that you have lost more than just pounds of fat. This program changes your outlook and understanding and that is where real change begins. As you stand in front of the mirror looking at the new you, feeling good about yourself for the first time in years, you realize you have gained a very valuable gift. Which is self-control, power over food, regained self-confidence and the achievement of something you never thought possible. This is very powerful and is just the boost you need to start afresh, reenergized with new determination. The Jump Start 7 Day Juice Program is not a quick fix solution. It is about new beginnings where anything is possible.

Hi StayHealthy2009,
Your sounding evangelical now. I have been a clinician for many years, in nutrition since 1981 and then add ons as I passed courses. Protein not vitamins or minerals is the ingredient that controls satiety, and reduces hunger pains, carbohydrates from sugar disappear very quickly, I would have to see this program work to believe it. How much weight has your husband lost and how long has he been on the program?

Hi John,

I am not trying to be evangelical so to speak. My husband lost 22lbs. He's been in the program for just 1 week (seven days). Like I said, maintaining a healthy lifestyle is the key. The program is not a quick fix solution. It wasn't easy for him for he loves fried chicken biggrin.gif.

There has been a myth created that we get protein only from meats, poultry, seafood and dairy products. However, nothing can be further from the truth. A lot of fruit and vegetables have an even higher, first-grade content of protein than the food mentioned above. Some of the strongest mammals on this planet, such as oxen, horses, rhinoceros and elephants, survive solely on foods from a plant source. The silverback gorilla is one of the strongest mammals in the world, pound by pound, they have three times the muscle mass and thirty times stronger than humans. The silverback gorilla can bench press an equivalent of 1818.18kgs (4000 lbs) – it is a vegetarian. How do you explain that?

Therefore, there’s no need to worry about becoming protein deficient. You will receive more than enough protein to function efficiently during the program.

Hi StayHealthy2009,

Let us talk about the protein myth first - I don't think it is a myth but in order to prove it is a myth we need credible research not just just some fellow parroting off on YouTube - this fellow is 39 and claims not to eat any protein other than what he gets from enzymes, which he incorrectly claims have their amino acids destroyed by heat. From memory it is the shape of the enzymes that is altered by heat stopping their function, but their amino acids are still there undamaged, somebody correct me if I am wrong, I am a student too.
This fellow could drop off the perch at some young age because of an amino acid he is not getting.

Vegetables and Fruit in particular do not supply all of the amino acids necessary to be called a complete protein and they are not even close to the amino load of meat or fish. They are partial proteins apart from soybeans which is being considered a complete protein by a lot of researchers now.

I been involved in sport at high levels as well as pursuing education in a few different fields, and from my observation vegetarians never look healthy, in martial arts and boxing I have trained several of them and they always look scrawney and pasty faced, and as they age they seem to look older and sicker, this is my observation, nothing based on science. Several sites suggest they are healthier and live longer and I know one that made 100 years, he was a bean eater and extremely religious, no smoking or drinking or other bad habits, so we can not rule out the possibility that his good habits carried him across the line, not his diet.

No studies have been done that I can find on a Gorillas strength, but I agree with you they are incredibly strong, estimations of their strength compared to ours are somewhere between 5 to 20 times stronger than us so you could probably agree with the expert and say about 10 times. Diet probably has nothing in the world to do with this, I would be more inclined to blame evolutionary selection of body type to fit in a niche.

"Wild Animals - Gorilla strength
Expert: Jonathan Wright - 5/21/2007

Question
i was wondering: exactly how strong is a (silverback) gorilla?
most sources seem to be pretty inconclusive. I've heard claims of anywhere from
1 to 27 times as strong as the average human male. I've heard that a gorilla can
lift 4600 pounds above its head. i have little doubt that a gorilla is stronger than
a human, but I'm wondering how much stronger.

Get the answer below

Answer
Dear Zach

Thanks for your question. I also wish to thank the authors of the websites I used.

Creation versus Evolution (http://www.evcforum.net/cgi-bin/dm.cgi?action=msg&f=14&t=1376&m=1 and http://www.evcforum.net/cgi-bin/dm.cgi?act...1376&m=196) is a discussion forum. LudoRaphaim says that there may have been no study to determine a gorilla’s strength. One book says it is 4-8 times stronger than a man, while the "Animal face off" show says it is 20 times stronger and LudoRaphaim says it is 20 times stronger in its upper body. Nigel Marvin says it is 5 times stronger. "The Most Extreme" on Animal Planet suggested that a gorilla can lift two tons above its head and may be eight times as strong as an Olympic weight lifter. A gorilla may deadlift twice as much as the world's strongest human.

Thomas M. Greiner (http://www.madsci.org/posts/archives/2001-07/995155256.Zo.r.html) considers the problems of defining gorilla strength. He says that most human strength activities, such as weight lifting, involve a degree of skill as well as strength. It is possible that a human could bench press more weight than a gorilla, but that a could tear the arms off the human. Gorillas and humans have variable strengths. The gorilla has very strong arms, compared to a person.

One reader (Abortion) at http://www.comixtreme.com/forums/archive/i...hp/t-19908.html says that the gorilla is 20 times stronger than an average adult human and could lift 200 pounds (about 1 ton), while PukeDunk says it could lift 2 tons and can tear up trees.

African Wildlife Foundation (http://www.awf.org/content/wildlife/detail/mountaingorilla) says that a mountain gorilla is about 10 times stronger - than the biggest American football players.

Looking at this conflicting information, it seems that a silverback gorilla is 5-20 times as strong as a human and that 10 times seems to be a fair estimate. It is a pity that there is so much speculation rather than any definitive answers."



You can get all of the amino acids to make complete protein by eating a wide range of foods so you get foods containing high levels of an amino acid and blend it with another food that is low in that amino acid, like wheat is low in lysine but put peanut butter on it and you have complete protein. So by blending part proteins you can get complete proteins but I don't think you can store amino acids on their own, so you would need to get them daily.

http://books.google.com.au/books?id=881IQh...sition+of+amino

This is a quickly evolving area of study so it is possible that some of this information is incorrect.

Can some of you dietitians/nutritionists look this over and tell me if I have made mistakes please.

Hi StayHealthy2009

Just something to add to the last post, fruit and vegetables may contain all of the amino acids but may not contain one or more in sufficient quantity to be classified as a complete protein.
