How Stars Lose Weight FAST?

By: Lisa on 05/06/2006

I read this in US Magazine – - I wonder about the validity of it?

When Pink needed to get into bikini shape for her beachside wedding (to Carey Hart) and upcoming tour, she turned to fitness guru Gregory Joujon-Roche. (Author of this month’s One Body, One Life, he also helped buff up Brad Pitt for Troy.) He gives Us the rundown on his star-tested 11-day cleanse. “You’ll lose ten pounds,” Joujon-Roche promises. “And it’ll stay off.”

First thing in the morning:
Prepare your two cleansing drinks, the Master Cleanse and the Liver Flush (which, together, will help rid your liver and kidneys of built up toxins). Mix each in a blender for 20 to 40 seconds, and strain if desired.

The Master Cleanse:
Juice of 1 lemon;
32 ounces of spring water;
1 1/2 teaspoon maple syrup or honey;
1 pinch ground clove or 1/2 teaspoon of whole clove

The Liver Flush:
1/2 of a peeled lemon;
2 peeled oranges;
1 oz. olive oil;
3 sprigs parsley;
1 pinch ginger, black pepper, cayenne and ground clove

Once both drinks are prepared:
1) Drink the entire Liver Flush
2) Then drink 8 ounces of Master Cleansers
3) Take 1,000 milligrams of vitamin C
4) Take 100 milligrams of Magnesium
(Sip the remaining Master Cleanser throughout the day)

Mid-morning snack:
Nosh on 5 to 10 raw almonds and half of an apple or pear.

Thirty minutes before lunch:
Drink 8 ounces of fresh juice — 80 percent vegetable juice, 20 percent fruit juice. Take another 1,000 milligrams of vitamin C and 100 milligrams of Magnesium.

Lunch:
Have a big vegetable salad, with dark greens, and four ounces of fish or chicken. For a quick, healthy dressing, mix lemon juice and olive oil.

Afternoon snack:
Eat another 5 to 10 raw almonds and half of an apple or pear. (Or skip the fruit in favor of 1 cup sliced carrots, cucumbers or celery.)

Thirty Minutes Before Dinner:
Drink eight more ounces of juice (keep the ratio 80 percent veggie to 20 percent fruit). Take one more round of supplements: 1,000 milligrams vitamin C and 100 milligrams of magnesium.

Dinner:
Eat another big vegetable salad with dark greens. (No red peppers or tomatoes!) If you’re still hungry, have more juice and 5 to 10 more almonds.

You just gotta wonder about drinking something called “Liver Flush” and “Master Cleanse” /cringe

    i am still hoping that someone who has done this cleanse responds to my post, in the meantime i wanted to just say so far- so good. it has been 3 full days and surprisingly, i am not starving. i was concerned about the protien intake but realized almonds have a lot of protien so i am not as worried as i was.
    i have also noticed that i have more room in my clothes after just a few days. i assume it is from the diuretic effects. i am definitely not bloated AT ALL, which is huge for me since i am always bloated in my abdomen area. i can actually see the ab muscles that have been covered up with a layer of flab for so long!
    it also helps with keeping you “regular”, if you know what i mean.
    i will keep posting my progress and if anyone has anything to add i would love to hear from you.

    I’ve tried the cleanse. It’s absolutely fabulous. The only thing is the prep work — the peeling, the cleaning, the blending, the juicing. But after a day or two, you’ll be an old pro. Don’t worry about the protein — there is protein in the nuts as well as the chicken. There’s fat in the olive oil and nuts. It’s pretty good. I think I added it up once and the cleanse is even calorically sound. I think it came out to about 1200 cal. I think, don’t take my word on that part. But no one doing this should be hungry. It does make one regular, too — some of the weight loss may be from the fact that it really cleanses your insides. I remember reading somewhere that people carry around 10-15 lbs of waste. Well, that’ll go away with this. Part of it is also probably water weight. And, inevitably, one has to lose weight bc of the calorie reduction.

    I like this cleanse. I suggest it to everyone I know. One thing, people should buy the fat burning lemonade from his website.
