7 Day Drink Cleanse

It's time. The "honeymoon" stage is over at our house and it's time to crack down on our diet and food intake. Brad and I eat clean Monday through Friday. Saturday is our cheat day and Sunday is somewhere in between. Brad and I both decided it's time to get back to business as far as kicking our butts in the gym and cleaning up our eating.

I like to kick-start my clean eating by doing a cleanse. This recipe is from Jillian Michaels. This recipe helps flush out the excess water weight. Depending on how much extra water you're carrying, you can lose 5-7 pounds using this cleanse. The last time I used this recipe, I lost 5 pounds in about 6 days.

The drink tastes more like lemon water than anything else. It takes about a day to get used to it. It's really not that bad! If you're looking for a quick weight drop, this will do the trick.

  • 60 oz. distilled water
