Another helpful tid bit-I am sure ya'l know how involved the major organs are in weight loss. Like the liver--main functions 1) to filter out toxins 2) to metabolize fats. Fatty liver syndrome is pretty common--it can happen when the liver gets burdened with drugs/pregnancy/high fat diets/high protein diet etc. So then the liver gets sluggish and can not filter as efficiently. Similarly, the colon can often hold pounds of "stuff" against the walls and in the crevices, preventing nutrients from being absorbed, causing the body to feel hungry all the time. Then the body begins to recirculate garbage. So body cleanses (colon then other major organs) can be very conducive and beneficial to weight loss.
Another true story: I did a liver cleanse last year. Lime juice, epsom salts and water (look up Basic liver cleanse.)

Queasy tummies ignore the next line:

The next time I went number two, there was no number two. Instead there were clumps of yellow fat balls. Hundreds of them. Looked like chicken fat, and when I poked at it (yes, I did, wouldn't you??) it squashed like fat.

So there is your lesson for the day! LOL
How much lime juice, epsom salts, and water? I want to try this.
