I was very skeptical going into this - advertised as losing 8 pounds in 5 days! How is that possible? Well, I lost 10 pounds in 9 days. I really enjoyed the juice and the flavors. I'm not going to lie - I cheated every day during the 5 day period, but I was definitely eating less and slowly cutting down the late night junk food, my #1 weakness. It's also important to keep in mind that a combination of the juice cleanse and exercise produces the best result. Instead of eating late night snacks, I did 20 minutes of exercise. I'm doing 2nd round in a month. Highly recommended!
