Fat Flush: A Two Week Weight Loss Kick Starter

I have 19 days left to lose 4.5 lbs... This is to help me hit my dietbet challenge weigh in goal and win some $$$!  I did the Fat Flush diet about a month ago and lost 12 pounds in two weeks.  I have kept over half of it off.  This really was a tough "diet" to follow for the first week, but the second week flew by.  So I am ready to go again.

Here's how the diet works.  Feel free to "steal" this and/or make it your own.

Instead, use the following to cook your food in:

Any of the following (must be low sodium or no salt added):

Rule #2: Drink the following:

Before Breakfast:
Drink an 8 ounce cup of hot water with the juice of 1/2 lemon to assist your kidneys and liver

Life Long Cocktail: Before Breakfast and Before Bed:
(How to Prepare)

In 8 ounces of the cranberry water, add either 1 full teaspoon of powdered psyllium husks or 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseeds.  Be sure to mix the psyllium quickly and drink it immediately to prevent clumping.  Also, this goes down best with a straw.

Cranberry Water: 
Drink 64 ounces per day
(How To Prepare)
To prepare cranberry water, purchase Knudsen's, Trader joe's, or Mountain Sun's Unsweetened Cranberry Juice.  Then get two empty 32-ounce bottles.  Fill each 32-ounce water bottle with 4 ounces of unsweetened cranberry juice and 28 ounces of water.
