Well today is day one for me. I took my phen this morning and I seem to be eating an apple like every three hours to keep away the hunger pains. I am drinking plenty of water and running to the bathroom alot too. Tomorrow is another day, so we shall see how it goes. Good luck to everyone!!!

**Brandi99** · July 7th, 2006, 11:43 AM

Hey Everyone,

I stopped by to see how everyone is doing. Even though I stopped the detox lastnight, this morning I had a cup of decaf coffee and about an hour later I had a child's size low fat smoothie from smoothie king. For lunch we went to O'Charleys and I had a garden side salad, and a steamed veggie side of brocoli and squash. As I said yesterday I was craving veggies, well I got some today. I am drinking my water and I have had no meat yet, maybe a little tomorrow.
Oh by the way I was down to 226.5 this morning, so about another 1 1/2 lbs gone.

**jaspernotting** · July 7th, 2006, 09:42 PM

My 2nd attempt yesterday was a breeze!! Love it!! Okie, maybe the first day I was detoxifying too much, that's what causing the headache.

Second try is much easier, stomach is happy and I try not to eat any apple untill about 10.30 cos I realised the apple actually make me feel hungry. And I did it without Phen.

Today is my 2nd day and I used Phen to help with it. Will have to attend my nephew wedding this evening, so I might to call it a day after today.

Definately be back for more next weekend. Love this!

**prettygal** · July 8th, 2006, 05:27 AM

Sorry to let all you Ladies down but I gave in about 5 last night. I took the kiddies swimming & I was starving when we got home. Even tho' I had ate plenty of apples. I broke down & had watermelon & sm piece of pizza. Then I slept for 10 hrs! I'm too active to do this now I think. Maybe I could have lasted if I would have taken phen yesterday. I feel great today & have lots of energy & less bloating. I will definately do this again. I don't know when. Probly when my life calm down & I'm not running around like a luna tick! (we just got home Monday from a 3 wk vacation) I lost about a pound a day on this detox.

Brandi, WOW! You keep losing like that & you'll be skinny in no time!

Murph, glad your feeling better! Those pounds are melting off!

Newbie, love your pic! You're beautiful!

Shirley, thanks for sharing this w/ us! And thanks for your compliments! My success is from phen & mostly my phrends!

**jbo** · July 8th, 2006, 06:22 AM

I am looking forward to starting this on Monday, I will be using phen to get me through the 3day apples only days.

Jasper-Glad the second time around is going much better for ya, have fun at the wedding, I love them cause I like to dance!! Keep us updated on the event and let us know if you survived the wedding food. If you can make it through the wedding then none of us should have any excuses.
I know you might call it a day today but you sure have inspired me to give it a go.

Prettygirl-Hey sounds like your like is very active at this point and you have to listen to your body! You can try again when there won't be as much activity. Thanks for your inspiration.

Brandi-Congrads on the weight loss! You seem to have a handle on what your eating, sounds really healthy and really that is the key.

sexygrandma-So how is day two going, we are all waiting in antisipation.

Newbie-Love your pretty pic. How are things going for you, I hope your finding yourself in a good mind frame, you can finish this~ don't give up cause you are almost there. Congrads so far on how much you have managed to lose.

**jaspernotting** · July 8th, 2006, 10:13 AM

Hi Jbo, YES!! I DID IT!! But of course I do it with the help of Phen today

The wedding is beautiful and everything went smoothly. Yes dancing is one great way to burnt some calories!

Pretty gal, the right time to do it is important. I knew it now that I'll need to sleep to see it thru' so working days are out.

Some resorts offer detox holiday plans and that is pure bliss, but my pocket won't allow that so I choose a long weekend instead...

**sexygrandma** · July 8th, 2006, 06:35 PM

Well today is the end of my second day. I did pretty good today. I just don't have any energy and I want to sleep. I had about 6 apples today, i'm really looking forward to the end of tomorrow so I can drink my olive oil.........yummy....lol. I will keep you posted

**jbo** · July 9th, 2006, 07:54 AM

Sexygrandma-You go on with yourself!! I am sending you all the encourgement this computer will allow

Jasper-Yeah way to go dear, I now have some determination to do this starting on Monday!! Thanks for sharing your experience with us.

**beautifuldreamer** · July 9th, 2006, 01:40 PM

jbo, just thought I would let u know that I'm doing this starting tomorrow too, I will weigh every day so that I can chart my loss. I hope it goes well. I think it will if I just make up my mind to do it. anyway I'm there with ya!!

**jbo** · July 9th, 2006, 01:55 PM

Bdreamer- Yeah this is going to be great!! I just went out and got my apples, I bought enough to allow for 5 a day but who knows the first day I may need more but the others might need less. I will be here often cause I will need all the support I can get.

**cndygrl80** · July 10th, 2006, 04:32 AM

Good morning all...I am starting today, but not going to be checking in much as I won't be home all day. Jbo- I'll be here this evening.

Be strong.

**prettygal** · July 10th, 2006, 06:28 AM

jbo, love your pics! You've come a looong way! You're such an inspiration! Good luck!

**jbo** · July 10th, 2006, 06:29 AM

Cndy-Aww thanks girlie!!! I don't know if i will be here once you get on this evening but I am sending you all my strength right now so you don't have the munchies, we can do this and your almost done with day one!!! Two more to go, stay strong, we will do this.

I had my first apple of the day w/skin, I will peel the rest. It is 10:40am so I am interested in seeing how long I stay this full. I am drinking water and have taken my phen.

I will be back to check in later

beautifuldreamer-Are you here with us today?? Stay strong girl, I hope you started this today.

**jbo** · July 10th, 2006, 06:33 AM

Prettygal-Awww thanks, so have you!! Holy heck look at those numbers. 230 down to 138 mine was 220 to 140 but you have lost over 80-lbs!! Congrads, you have come a long way and when your ready to lose those few last pounds maybe you can give this another whirl!! You more than likely can do it without this detox seeing how busy you are. Thanks again

**Virgo66** · July 10th, 2006, 07:08 AM

Hey! I'm here, sort of, just quickly anyhow. I just started apple #2, this one 's a fuji and wow is it tasty! I've never tried this kind before!

Drinking lots more water too, trying to make myself full 'cause I already started feeling hungry, but I won't give in! took 1/2 a 37.5 this msorning and will take the other 1/2 this afternoon. See ya later!
Mary

**jbo** · July 10th, 2006, 07:11 AM

Mary stay strong, your doing excellent. I bought the red ones which to my surprise they are crunchy and not mushy. I also got the fuji and plan on switching so I don't get bored. Mary did you peel yours??

**Virgo66** · July 10th, 2006, 07:19 AM

JBO, I forgot to peel them & don't have a knife with me at work. I posted some stuff in our other challenge.
M~

**jbo** · July 10th, 2006, 07:42 AM

No worries, I didn't peel my first one either. I will do the rest, I guess we peel them because they can agitate our bellies.

**Newbie2004** · July 10th, 2006, 08:18 AM

newbie

**jbo** · July 10th, 2006, 08:36 AM

Newbie-Glad your doing it again

Ok this is my second apple for today at it's 12:50pm. I peeled this one.

**shirleysyu** · July 10th, 2006, 11:01 AM

It's great to see so many of you are trying hard to make this work. No matter how many days you were able to complete, you should be proud of yourself for at least making the attempt! We all have our own struggles with weightloss, and every little bit helps!

My aunt tried it last week, but she did it on alternate days...1 day apples, 1 day food, 1 day apples, 1 day food but she didn't drink her olive oil. Well, she had severe constipation and had to quit. My cousin also tried it (she is a thin person, don't know why she wants to lose weight), she was unable to lose any weight after 2 days. I guess it only served her as a detox, not weightloss method.

I have to say that my skin condition has improved a lot after all the detoxes I've done. I also found that I do not need to sleep as much comparing to before. I hope this will inspire everyone to keep going!!

It's hard, but if your only difficulty is craving for food, then you really should push yourself harder! For our friends who have side effects, please stop immediately just to be safe!

It's great to be able to fit into my old jeans. They are TIGHT, but I was able to zip it up this weekend! Hahaha...

**jbo** · July 10th, 2006, 11:16 AM

I am eating apple 3 now and it's 3:30 I found myself getting hungry!!! I am done with my first half gallon of water today.

**Virgo66** · July 10th, 2006, 11:30 AM

Question! Hope it's not TMI... I've drank 94 oz water already today, and typically after my first 24-32 (by 9 am), my urine is clear already. BUT, it's 3:30 pm, I've drank 94 oz, and it's still very yellow. Anyone else?
Mary

**Newbie2004** · July 10th, 2006, 01:44 PM

Ok ladies how is everyone doing? Shirley glad to see your still checking in on us. Jbo I am glad I am back in also.

So far today Ive had 3 apples and so much water. I drink alot of water so i never keep track.

OK ladies drum roll please.............I weighed myself and i am down 5 pounds,thats right i said 5 pounds wooohooo

I dont know how that happend
because i only did the apple detox for 2 days. I guess i didnt eat as much as I thought down at the shore. I am excited to see what the next 3 days will be like for all of us.

Virgo66 I dont know about that so sorry i wish i had a ans for you. stay strong

newbie

**jbo** · July 10th, 2006, 02:14 PM

Mary- sorry don't have an answer for that one.

Newbie-5-lbs yippee!!!

As for me I am eating apple number 4 and of course thier is someone grilling food outside

I have been using the bathroom non-stop and I am pushing a gallon of water today!!

I am starting to get a small headache but I did take ibprophen since tom is coming very soon.

I want to go for a bike ride but I might have to go potty.

TMI here but I do know apples is what I am seeing in the potty!! I have gone twice today and I love it.

bb later

Everyone stay strong three days is nothing, we will do this. Hey if Newbie lost 5 who knows maybe we will pull off some weight too.

**jbo** · July 10th, 2006, 04:41 PM

Ok ladies I rode my bike for 30min and I am eating apple number five and it's 9pm, I definately want something more but I am trying with all my might to hang in there.

**Brandi99** · July 10th, 2006, 04:57 PM

Hello detox ladies,

I wanted to drop by today and see how everyone is doing and also give you an update. Even though I did not last on the detox after day two, I must say that I have lots of energy. I feel very good, even after two full days of work around the house, and I do mean FULL. Starting at 7 in the morning, might I add without an alarm clock, and stopping about 10 at night, and going to bed around 11:30. This morning I woke up before the alarm, and well it is set for 5:45.
I do have to say that I think that most of the weight was water weight that I lost, because it has found it's way back to me. I have been eating very healthy, lots of veggies, and a little lean protein, and only one meal with a carb a day. And exercise well I got more this weekend that I have had all month.
Anyway, i'm not complaining, the energy more than makes up for those few pounds of water weight.

Good luck to everyone. Be strong and I will be cheering you to the finish line.

**lovnlife** · July 10th, 2006, 06:16 PM

Mary - Are you taking a multivitamin? They can discolor your urine.

Newbie - Congrats! 5lbs!

Brandi- The increased energy is good news! I'll take anything I can get at this point.

Okay, I made it through day 1...barely. I hope day 2 is better.

**Virgo66** · July 11th, 2006, 04:27 AM

You know, as I was gathering my vitamins etc for the day this morning, I realized that yesterday I started taking a B complex, and it's yellow! Mystery solved!

JBO -- Hubby was grilling chicken last night and it smelled soooooo good! I cut up an apple & threw it in the little veggie griller basket and had some yummy grilled apples, nice & warm. Of course, a drizzle of honey & maybe some cinnamon would have made them better. Maybe later this week! And, he cooked too much chicken (we've got friends visiting & he over estimated) so there's some left over grilled chicken in the fridge waiting for me. I'm thinking chicken cesar salad for lunch and/or dinner on Thursday...

So, how do you spell idiot? That's right. M-A-R-Y. I found out when I was leaving work yesterday why I was so hungry all morning. I split a 37.5 phen in half and put 1/2 in my noon-supplement pill box and the other, well I THOUGHT I took it, but I found it under a small stack of papers on my desk when I was cleaning up to leave. SO, this morning I made sure I took 1/2 already! I'm hoping this will make things easier today.

Have a lovely day ladies -- I haven't had my first apple yet, but will soon I'm sure.

Mary

**prettygal** · July 11th, 2006, 04:54 AM

Virgo, I take B complex & when I go to the bathroom, it glows!

Good luck ladies. Hang in there!

**jbo** · July 11th, 2006, 05:10 AM

Ok ladies let's stay strong today!!!

**Virgo66** · July 11th, 2006, 08:20 AM

12:20 pm, so far only 1 apple today, I'm really not hungry. I guess remembering to actually take the phen in the morning helped...

Mary

**Newbie2004** · July 11th, 2006, 09:35 AM

Hello ladies
well my report so far
Yesterday, day 1- I ate so many apples i cant remember how many, most I ate in the evening my cravings were horrible last night

but i made it thru.

Today Day 2 I had 4 apples so far, and water water water

I only did a 1 hr of cardio so far,I will try to go walking this evening. I think thats what really help me lose that last 5 pounds with the detox.

Ok ladies we keep this up we will feel better and look better

Keep all the great work i am very excited.

**beautifuldreamer** · July 11th, 2006, 10:21 AM

jbo - sorry, but I didn't get to start monday, I did start today though, I've had 2 apples so far and I am working on my 2nd liter of water and it's 1:30, I've not been real hungry and I weighed in at 192.2 this morning which is y I'm doing this bc I've been stuck at 192 for about 2 or 3 weeks now and so I am hoping to get off of that. I really hope to lose 3 pounds at least that way I'd be in the 180's. I truly hope it works and and that it gets this loss going again. I'll check in later.
