Product Description
You know how it is. That special event just around the corner and you can’t fit into your designer jeans. You need a fool-proof, emergency weight-loss method that really works and works fast. So how do you safely and quickly lose those extra pounds?
Once again, renowned health pioneer and bestselling author Ann Louise Gittleman has a quick, no-strings-attached solution that is also good for you. She is always on the cutting edge of developing new methods to rejuvenate the body and facilitate weight loss and she’s done it again in The Fast Track One-Day Detox Diet. Gittleman takes the age-old method of fasting and incorporates it into a safe and healthy one-day plan that helps you lose weight fast, gets rid of toxins, and gives your body a cleansing boost to prepare it for even more weight loss down the road.
The plan itself is blissfully simple:
THE PREQUEL: Seven days of adding detox support foods to your diet to prepare your body for the one-day Fast
THE FAST: One day of sipping Gittleman’s “Miracle Juice,” a deliciously spiced mixture of herbs and spices specially designed to stave off hunger, balance blood sugar, boost metabolism, and replenish nutrients (no kidding, the juice is completely delicious)
THE SEQUEL: Three days of reintroducing supportive and immune-boosting foods into your diet to seal in the results
That’s all. There’s no need for a strict maintenance plan or more dieting because the Fast Track One-Day Detox Diet purges your body of fattening toxins so that you’ll keep losing weight once you’re finished. What’s more, if you can’t add those healthy foods to your diet in the Prequel and Sequel, Gittleman provides a list of replacement supplements that you can easily find in your local health food store or online.
So, use The Fast Track One-Day Detox Diet to jump start an over-40 metabolism, melt away vacation or holiday pounds, break a diet plateau, get in shape for that high school reunion or wedding, and even help heal a chronic illness. Even if you’ve been slow to lose weight in the past, the pounds will melt away quickly during your one-day fast. Inside there are recipes to prepare for the fast, shopping lists, and tips for sailing through the fast.
In addition, Ann Louise Gittleman shares the wisdom she’s gained from years of research on health, diet, and nutrition. You’ll find out about hidden toxins found in the environment and in everyday foods, and learn easy steps you can take to live healthier every day.
The perfect diet: simplicity, effortless weight loss, and obvious health benefits from a nutritionist with a proven tack record. You’ll feel so good after your first fast, you’ll want to incorporate the Fast Track’s cleansing principles and periodic fasting into your life for good.
Don’t delay, it’s time to jump on the Fast Track to a lighter, healthier you.

 Not so great the second time July 21, 2010

The book was received quickly and in "like new" shape. This was the second time I did this diet and did not like the results I got. Inlike the first time when I felt cleansed this time I was constipated for about 6 days. I thought I followed all the necessary steps and ate all the recommended food and supplements. I made a daily schedule for breakfast, lunch, and dinner based mainly on the recipe's which were not always easy to prepare. I think cabbage may bind me up.
As good as any I suppose June 5, 2010

I followed the suggested meal plan and lost several pounds. Whether that's because I was detoxed or because it drastically cut my calorie intake I don't know. I didn't care. It was a great healthy way to jump start a healthy diet and I learned some good principals to follow as well as some tasty recipes.
 Follow this 11-day plan (7-1-3) and get results June 3, 2010

Hi everyone,
I've been an Ann Louise Gittleman fan for about 25 years. In fact, some of the habits she suggested in "Beyond Pritikin" are still going strong--like drink room temperature water 20 minutes before a meal and none with the meal.
Dr. Anne Louise knows how to write these books in lay terms so I'm not feeling lost in the material. Last year I read and followed her, "Before the Change: Taking Charge of Perimenopause" and I am aleviated of those symptoms! In this book she offers all the "how and why" about the detox plus she offers the quick and easy method in Chapters 5-8.
Anyway, I got this detox diet book because I was trying to flush steriods from my system. What I got out of it was a cleaner overall feeling and reduced cellulite.
This plan is not difficult to follow, as there are plenty of food options--ingredients available in U.S. metropolitan stores, but here's the problem I encountered: the original shopping list did not detail the extra supplements for the last 3 days. Read ahead to see what you'll need on days 9-11.
The diet is 7 days of liver and colon cleansing foods and supplements followed by a 1-day liquid fast, concluding with 3 days of structured eating with more supplements.
ALG warns not to do the 1-day fast if you aren't going to finish per her instructions because the now-loose toxins will find new places to hide if they are not flushed out properly. My experience was on day 11 I was around a buffet of unhealthy sugary foods and nibbled a little, which became permission to eat more "detox detractors." I became bloated and uncomfortable for the next few days. Yucky.
So, if you are looking to drop 3-8 pounds and clean up your insides, this is a terrific way to do it. I did not feel hungry except for day 8, which I got through by sipping the "Miracle Juice" between hourly servings.
Her Web site Fast Track Detox forum was really helpful, too.
Hate the lay out May 10, 2010

This is simply too boring to actually read!!!! Much less follow a diet plan from it
 some misleading info that could work against you March 24, 2010

This book has some misleading info that could work against you. First she advises that eating organic butter, yogurt and whey is okay because they don't contain the milk protein casein. Whey is the protein itself separated out and even organic butter contains milk. Be very careful if you have a cow's milk allergy as I do. I followed what she was saying instead of checking out the facts for myself and I kept wondering why I wasn't feeling well on her diet. Secondly, she has you eat a lot of goitrogenic vegetables on this diet. If you have any diagnosed (or even undiagnosed) hypothyroidism this can cause problems because these vegetables work against your thyroid and should only be eaten in small amounts.
