Have you ever heard the old saying "When something is too good to be true, it probably is"? Well, this so-called miracle juice is a FANTASTIC example of that. Now I am not really overweight, but I could stand to loose a couple of pounds....or more before swimsuit season. I know the only one true way to loose weight and keep it off is to quit eating all the extra fattening foods like hamburgers (Yum) and milkshakes, and to start excercising and eat healthy foods like fruits, vegetables, salad, and drink tons of water. But a couple of weeks ago I decided to take the easy way out, like some Americans, and try a diet product. Needless to say, I should of spent that $25.00 on health foods instead of on the small bottle of 48 hour "Miracle" juice. What a rip off!

So your saying I can't eat any food for two days?

That is exactly what I am saying. For two days in a row, four times a day, I diluted four ounces of the "Miracle" juice with four ounces of water. (What a tasty meal. It sure beats hamburgers and fries, right? Can you sense my sarcasism here?) Then, after I consumed the drink, I would go on to do my daily activities. The product recommends that you drink an extra eight ounces of water during the day when you use the product. The drink left me satisfied, but I was still hungry and sleepy because my body was not storing enough carbohydrates for energy. After the two days were up, I weighed in, and I could not believe it. I lost 9.5 pounds! But I knew it wasn't fat. I could tell that my body seemed a little bit slimmer, but I could tell it was from losing excess water. When I started eating the day after the diet, or the two day fast of drinking water and juice, I gained it all back and then some. You know why? When you drink only juice and water for two days straight, you are actually playing a trick on your body. Your body thinks that you are going through starvation (which in a way you are)so your metabolism starts to slow down to preserve fat. What you are losing is excess water and lean muscle mass. So you are not losing any fat when you use this product. Then, when you start to eat, everything you start to eat turns to fat because this time your body wants to be better prepared and store fat just in case you starve yourself again. Your body is only looking out for you. Your metabolism will return to normal, that is after you start to eat again and gain even more weight back.

Here are some precautions:

1. Our body rids ourselves of toxins naturally, but this product does it in a fast manner which may pose a threat to your health. As always, consult your doctor before using a weight loss product.

2. This product will not work "properly" if you drink coffee or smoke while using this product. Probaly because coffee contains caffeine and people usually put sugar or cream in to their coffee, and smoking supresses your appetite. So in order for this product to work, you should not smoke, and if you drink coffee, don't use cream or sugar.

3. Don't expect to keep the pounds off after this two day fast. You gain your original weight back, and for some people a little extra weight because your metabolism has been messed around with.

4. "48 Hour Diet is a formulation of fruits, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, essential oils, and other cleansing agents. For some nutrients you get as much as 300% of the U.S.D.A. recommended amount." I guess that this company does not know that it is not safe to consume over 100% of the recommended amount of certain vitamins or nutrients. Sometimes a person can get very sick if they exceed a certain percent of daily nutrients.

5. Be prepared to have to make a couple of trips to the bathroom when using this product. You drink a lot of water and a lot of juice!

It is a known fact this it is not safe to loose more than three pounds per week. So with this product, losing 6-10 pounds is harmful to the body. The faster you lose it, the faster it will come back. When I bought this product offline, it came with a small book that was called "Secrets to losing weight". There are no secrets to losing weight, sorry. You know what you have to do to lose weight: drink water, excercise, and eat a healthy diet. What is so "secretive" about that? Nothing. My point is proven.

This product gives you a false reassurance that you are losing weight. I can't say that the advertisers for this product are lying, because you do actually loose 6-10 pounds.....BUT THEY DON'T TELL YOU WHAT YOU ARE ACTUALLY LOSING IN THOSE POUNDS!!
Is it fat?---No.
Is it water?---Yes.
Is it lean muscle mass--Yes

So you do lose weight, except it is muscle and water weight.
It should really say "IF YOU ARE LOOKING TO LOOSE 6-10 POUNDS IN LEAN MUSCLE MASS AND EXCESS WATER, TAKE THIS PRODUCT! YOU WILL BE SO HAPPY WHEN YOU GAIN IT ALL BACK AFTER YOU START EATING REGULARLY AGAIN! YOU MIGHT EVEN GAIN A FEW EXTRA POUNDS TOO :)"

Overall, I would recommend that if you truly want to loose weight, you have to excercise and eat healthy foods. There is no easy way out... Unless you pay a couple of thousands of dollars for lypo-suction, but that may be a small hassle. Right now I am currently excercising 30 minutes a day and eating a healthy diet. It make take longer to loose weight, but as least this way I will keep the weight off and not gain it all back if i have a slice of pie every now and then.

Good Luck! Please, listen to my advice, because I do not want anyone to starve themselves for 2 days just because this product claims to be a foul proof way to loose weight! Spend your $25 on something more valuable.
