MC on Tyra Banks Show

[Jazz2591]

I was watching Tyra Banks Show on 9-21 and the topic was "celebrity diet secrets". There was a part of the show where they talked about different weight loss programs and the MC was one of them. They were bad mouthing The MC. Saying you have no energy and you become very crabby and you will not get any nutrients. First of all I thought The MC was a cleanser/detoxifier/healer and not a "diet plan". I thought the weight loss was a secondary result but not the main purpose of the cleanser. Whenever I do the MC, I have more energy than I do when I am not on the MC and I have been told that I am very easy to get along with also. I hear alot of people who say they can not do it because of their schedules but I believe that is just an excuse. If you are determined you can do this with almost any schedule with a few minor adjustments. Now that I have been seeing positive results I have become a believer in the MC.

that is the truth sister (or brother)?

I hate when people talk about things they don't understand or know jack shtt about. Really Tyra. My sister is another one too. she's seen me do two successful MCs and yet she still thinks it's quackery. She's seen me lose over 30 lbs over the past year and still she won't take any of my eating and working out tips. I mean, if I can do it, anyone can. I'm not superhuman. I want to quit sometimes too. I like cake and ice cream. But I'm determined and if I mess up I just wipe myself off and start again. Everything in life is about believing in yourself and pushing yourself further than you think you can go. There's no magic, no secret doors, no shortcuts. Everything worth having is worth working for.


The MC works. bottom line. You'll never know unless you try it. And you can't try it saying "oh i'll just do this for a little while and see what happens" because you're setting yourself up. You have to go into this knowing what to expect and knowing that you're going to finish it. You're going to go all the way and put this accomplishment under your belt because failure is not an option. If you tell yourself you might slip then you will slip and then you will fall. And if you don't believe me on the power of the mind - wait til you start having those dreams that feel so real you wake up chewing or when those random cravings for things you haven't eaten in years come. I had cravings for things I'd never even eaten on my last cleanse. So if your mind can tell you you need to have churros with cinnamon and chocolate right then minute then your mind can also tell you that you're going to go ten (or more) days without eating and you're going to come out better because of it.

Another thing>
When people come on here doing the MC purely for weightloss I get a little nervous because I worry that if they don't go into this with the right mindset, knowledge and determination, if they don't lose enough weight quickly enough they'll whine and then quit.
It's important to understand that the MC is a detox diet - I'm even wary using the word "diet" here - and it's to cleanse out your body and can help you lose weight now and in the future but it's important to make a change after. Otherwise you will put back on all the weight you lose and possibly more. But some think the MC is some magic pill they can take and lose 10 or so pounds whenever they need to. That's why the lady who did the San Fran article didn't make it past day 5. Detox symptoms are no joke - and when they come, you'll start rethinking whether or not to really need to lose those 10 lbs by Friday for real. But if you're in it for something deeper than superficial purposes, and you've done all the research, then you're more likely to stick it out and get all the benefits, during and after the cleanse.
And speaking of research, what's so hard with doing research? Do a search on here, on google, wikipedia, in a dictionary... I mean why always create a new thread? why always ask a question when the answer is everywhere? just take a second and look. seek and ye shall find. ask, and it might not be answered because it's in the salt water flush thread staring right at you if you'd only look
lol
I'm totally ranting right now.
I'm sorry. Let me stop before I move on to the Bush administration and my sister's boyfriend and everything else that is wrong with the world.
Damn MC naysayers always get me worked up.

I agree with all of you.... I think Tyra should consider the MC. I was watching her "America's Top Model" show last night and it looks like she can now model for the "Womens" section of most stores compared to her VERY skinny contestants. Sorry for it sounding so mean....
