There have been a lot of misunderstandings in this thread, and I think you're the first to be big enough to admit it. But, I wasn't eating. I was on a completely liquid diet.But, as for not taking in anything for a week? That *would* be asinine. The Grade B Maple Syrup contains a bunch of nutrients. And a lot of sugars -- both complex and simple. Its good stuff. Check it out in your local health food store sometime.Something around 2200, I'm pretty sure. That's why I've been losing over a pound a week pretty consistently for months.I didn't walk briskly. Also, according to How Stuff Works, to get rid of a pound you need to get rid of 3500 calories. Let's do some math and see if it works out. That'd be 35 000 Calories to burn off ten pounds. 2700 - 1500 (high end) is 1200. 1200 a day, times 7 days is 8400. Also according to How Stuff Works, walking a mile is about a hundred calories. I went on only two walks that week, and each is about five miles. That's another 1000 calories. Making 9400 calories burned. For sake of easiness, let's call that 10 000. That still leaves 25 000(!!!) calories unaccounted for. I don't know where that weight went, but given that that's a really big number, and given how I feel, I'm going to go ahead and continue to believe that the Master Cleanser works.This is almost exactly what I did when I first started changing, four months ago. That's when I went on lemons -- one a day, more if I wanted it. My dietary intake has been shrinking, as I havn't been as hungry. I made very little effort to not eat, and just the week before I went on my fast I ate a "King Size" thing of Whoppers. Yummy Chocolate.The lemons have a host of beneficial affect. Given it a try, Bryan. You might well be amazed if you do. Add in that lemons are counted amongst the world's healthiest foods, and there's hardly any reason *not* to try a lemon a day.The best part of my fast was that I wasn't ever really hungry. Sure, up until the third day I was getting hungry, but after that it was easy. Whenever I felt the slightest bit hungry, I'd just drink more lemonade. Sure beats what I'm doing now -- waiting for a roomate to get home so we can all (3 of us) have dinner together.</blockquote>
