I'm only up 3-4 pounds so I'm real happy with the holidays (I lost 60 pounds back in 2002 so I watch my weight VERY carefully).
10 day liquid fast.
The night before, and every night thereafter, drank a cup of Senna Leaf tea.
Next morning 32 oz. of Sea Salt (2 teaspoons) spring water as quickly as possible (stay near bathroom for 1.5-2 hours!)
Throughout the day drink 6 -12 glasses (about 10 oz. each) of spring water, fresh squeezed organic lemon juice, grade B organic maple syrup and cayenne pepper).
This was my first time and I lasted the 10 days. Can't say I didn't have massive cravings for the foods I love, but it really did wonders. The weight loss is supposed to be the secondary benefit. The major benefit is to get rid of toxins, etc. from the intestines, liver, kidney, etc.
I was very cynical about it, until I heard great success stories from my brother and friends.
So far I'm maintaining pretty well (only gained 2 lbs back - - and I eat whatever I want on the weekends -- during the week, I eat lots of fruits, vegetables, organic cereals, nuts and breads). My energy level is high and I feel great. I plan to do it twice per year, so my next one will be in June.

I now understand where the name "shmessy" comes from, ew.

We'll be standing and cheering in the stadium... no time to eat there... food at Gillette sucks anyway..
...my wife's homemade brownie "crisps"....like a thin, slightly chewy brownie.
That's on the money. I usually have everything all prepared and spread right before kickoff and that's when I get my munch on. When we were playing the Ravens, or Eagles I couldn't even have chips I was too wound up. Most of the time I was just standing up yelling at the TV.Not sure. I often have trouble eating during Patriots games if we're close or behind so I'm not sure. I do better eating after games than during them.
Wow - well . . . thanks for the info. But . . . no thanks10 day liquid fast.
