My Mom's discovery !

I just hang up the phone with my mom and she was babbling non stop to me about her new found discovery to weight loss. Apparently she and her sister (my auntie) had read and heard about this method from the media and both have decided to give it a try.

Like a fellow cult member, she began her brainwashing and start persuading me to participate and try it. Boy, is she good, kind of a waste that she wasn't into sales. Her long list of benefits like weight loss, lower cholesterol, higher metabolism etc etc kind of sway my doubts. But when she used the magic words - ZERO EXERCISE in the same sentence with WEIGHT LOSS! She got my undiverted attention and interest and that's what I like to hear, ZERO exercise = ZERO sweating = ZERO working yr butt off, thus making it triple nice ! =)

What's her discovery ??!! Apparently you have to drink 1/2 cup of fresh lemon juice before breakfast and another 1/2 cup before dinner, twice a day. As an initial beginner and to prepare your stomach for it, you can try it in shot glass portion for 1 week before you "u
pgrade" and move on to 1/2 glass.

As to when you'll witness the result ? She's not too sure of it either since she just started it this Monday. But based on the reviews from the media, she is convinced and sold ! As for me, there's this hidden conscience in me that when my Mom tells me to try it, I'll give it a shot.

Thus I'll grab a bag of lemons this weekend and make Paul squeeze the juice out of it. But before that weight loss begin, I know Paul will have quite a workout from squeezing the lemon juice !

Sister,

Better be careful as lemon is acidic. It may thinner your intestine and I do not wish to attend your funeral so soon hor.

Wow, Dee, I wonder how good this is and if it works, then why? What oes it do? I love lemon in hot water at night, but I have never had a half of a cup of it by itself! I wonder if you can mix it with water and maybe some honey? Ask you Mom if that is Ok. I want to try this also, mostly if it works. As I hate the other words that go along with losing weight... ha ha

Hi Mom,
It's so funny that you asked me about adding Honey to the Lemon Juice. As my mom is also doing the very same thing as well. She add a teaspoon of honey into her lemon juice so it add a little sweetness to it and make the sourness more manageable. But NO, you can't add water to it as it will dilute the juice.

Apparently to her, there are lots of feedback that it work as the lemon juice's natural acid help to break down food and aid digestion . The citrus food also have high Vitamin C, thus improve skin complexion along the way.

Maybe you can give it a try for 1-2 weeks and see how it goes. =)
