I was just wondering if anyone kept their weight loss off from things like the MC or juice fast? It's strange.. I gained back the 10 pounds or so that I had lost on the scale, but I had went down about two sizes that am still those two sizes smaller despite the weight gain. I can't really explain it..

    Ha I'm doing the Master Cleanse right now and am astounded at how much smaller I am(how my clothes fit, etc) but haven't lost a single pound! I'm on day 4!

    I'm not doing it for weight loss but was really surprised by this.

    its true- ive gained some weight since my last juice feast but my clothes still fit- i think its just a fluid/toxin loss that make you look smaller, but you retain your muscle so the numbers on the scale don't move.

    Anybody have tips for not gaining weight post fast?

    well you're gonna gain SOME back because you'll be eating instead of not eat....just the food in your intestines weighs SOMETHING.

    However, I think if you're strict about your lifestyle after a fast then you can definitely keep the weight off. Just don't binge when you start eating and stick to lots of fruits and veggies and no grains or nuts.

    I did the MC a few months ago and I kept the weight off for a couple weeks until I went SAD eating again and gained it all back. That's what I get, though; it was no surprise. I plan on being 100% raw for a time before I do the MC again, to help with cravings. I wasn't done detoxing. UGH. hehe
