Does anyone actually have a logical reason for this? 😂

As soon as I saw they were serving fruit for breakfast, I totally stopped reading right there because there is absolutely no way in hell I'm eating anything sour on an empty stomach first thing in the morning 🤮

I grabbed it from the National Association for Obesity Prevention site—they've got a bunch of success stories posted there too.

Idk, honey—maybe you should just ask the nutritionist over at the National Association for Obesity Prevention site where they got this diet from in the first place!

Has anyone here actually tried one of those weight loss retreats? Like, do they actually work or is it just hype?

Hey everyone, does this actually work??

Since it’s supposed to be reductive, it ought to actually work 😉
