Wanna Lose Weight? Try The 3 Days Fruit Flush Diet

First off, before embarking on this 3 days fruit flush diet, make sure you've discussed it with your dietician/doctor and be sure that you're not suffering from any form of sickness that may be triggered by this. Right! Leggo... so we all know how fruits contain alot of nutrients right? below is a way that you can lose weight by going on a fruit diet for 3 days a week, and from what i've heard the results speak for themselves. i'll advice you to start off with one day then the following week you can increase it to two days. because just like smoking, there's a withdrawal phase, where the hunger pangs will get at you. You should also take protein shakes or amino acid acid capsules during this period. i also cannot over emphasize  on the need to drink lots of water.

Can you lose weight by eating fruit every two hours? The Fruit Flush Diet, often referred to as simply the Fruit Diet, is getting a lot of attention by promising an astonishing 9-10 pound weight loss in just three days.
“During the 3-Day Fruit Flush, your system is relieved of the digestive burden of eating other foods and can clean out its system while burning fat because fruit is nature’s perfect cleansing food," says personal trainer and certified clinical nutritionist Jay Robb, author of the Fruit Flush 3 Day Detox.

According to Robb’s book, which is available on his web site, nutrients in fruit help dissolve toxic buildup and the water and fiber content of fruit flush it out. He says following the 3 Day Fruit Flush will help flush out toxins that result from a diet of overly processed foods, artificial ingredients, alcohol, junk food, and more.
What makes this quick weight loss plan different from others is that it includes lean protein to spare the body’s muscle and help burn fat, says Robb, who is not a registered dietitian.
"When you eat fresh fruits, vegetables, and lean protein for 36 hours, you go into a fat-burning mode which preserves your muscle mass," he says.
He acknowledges that about half of the 9-10 pound weight loss you can expect during the 3-Day Fruit Flush will come from water, especially if your diet is very low in sodium. (Some experts think this percentage could be even higher.) But Robb says the fast weight loss is a great motivator for anyone starting a long-term weight loss program.
The Fruit Flush Diet requires only two steps. On the first day, you drink protein shakes. This is followed by two days of eating fresh fruit every two hours, plus a dinner meal of raw vegetables and a small amount of lean protein or a protein shake.
The diet provides about 900-1,000 calories each day, with about 100-125 grams of protein on day one and about 50 grams of protein on the other two days, depending on the type of protein powder you use.
Robb's 3 Day Fruit Flush diet is different from the diet he calls the Fruit Diet, a 14-day program with slightly more calories and an "accelerated fruit flush plan" consisting of unlimited fresh fruit during the day, plus an evening meal of protein, vegetables, salad, and healthy fats. But in general, whenever fruit is the foundationof a diet plan, it could be called a fruit diet. Some people follow an all-fruit diet for a day a week or three days a month.
 

The Fruit Flush Diet: How It Works

Here's how Robb explains the theory behind his weight loss plan: "Fruits and vegetables are lively to the system, and, as a result, the body is relieved of the digestive burden of other foods and can clean house by flushing away toxins and going into a fat-melting mode."
By eating fruit every two hours, you will stabilize blood sugars, he adds.
But the bottom line, some nutrition experts say, is that losing weight is fundamentally about taking in fewer calories than you burn. You will lose weight on the Fruit Flush Diet because it is so low in calories -- not because any toxins are flushed out by fruit, nutrition experts say. There is little evidence to support the notion that any detox diets are effective for long-term weight loss.
American Dietetic Association spokesperson Elisa Zied, MS, RD, says that if you don’t have diabetes, it is fine to eat fruit alone. But a better option, she says, is to eat some protein along with the fruit.
"When you combine protein with fruit, the fiber and protein work in tandem to stabilize blood sugar and make you feel more satisfied than eating fruit alone," says Zied, author of Feed Your Family Right!
Including a minimum amount of protein on days 2 and 3 and a more than adequate amount on day one should help preserve muscle mass while dieters are on the Fruit Flush Diet.
Robb recommends doing the Fruit Flush once weekly for 12 weeks or 1-2 times per month, forever, or whenever you need a tune-up. After completing the Fruit Flush Diet, Robb suggests following a balanced diet that focuses on natural foods with ample calories to meet daily nutritional and energy needs.
Exercise is not recommended during the 3 Day Fruit Flush because of the very low calorie intake, but is encouraged afterward, when dieters move to a higher-calorie diet, Robb says.
