Jaimie, thank you so much for the comment. I am not entirely sure what to say to your comment though. ‘Eating like shit’ is an odd sort of attitude, because most of what we eat when we ‘eat like shit’ is good clean fats, proteins and carbohydrates with massive proportion sizes. It isn’t healthy eating, but there is nothing to ‘cleanse’. What would you need to clean out or think you are cleaning out of your body with a cleanse. At best a cleanse is just a laxative which does nothing but move your waste through your body faster than your body intends. As well, things like ‘clean jump start’ are completely fallacious. You aren’t jump starting anything, you aren’t even starting anything and as for clean, there is nothing clean about a cleanse except the fact that the first 5 letter spell clean. Eat well (limit your calorie intake) and exercise and do not take supplements (unless directed by your doctor). Cleanses are literally snake oil, they are mumbo jumbo…

There is nothing wrong with a healthy detox every once and a while. It does clean you out if you’ve been eating like shit, and give you a clean jump start if your trying to lose weight. It’s all about what’s in them that matters. They all have different ingredients…so study them.

[...] I laughed my way through these comments, but I wish to mention something even more disturbing. Jillian Michaels defends her products as being natural and organic. Everyone seems to desire to take her ingredient lists on good faith. I wrote a blog entry about her cleanse + detox (to be serious though a cleanse isn’t a good enough scam, you have to double it by looking into making it a cleanse + detox, how greedy can you be in the concept of scams), and she or he tweeted me to state that her cleanse originated by one of the leading bariatrics doctors on the planet, Dr. Arnold (sic, it is Arne) Astrup, and i also should educate myself if I was going to comment. The blog entry will be here: http://youarenotafitperson.com/2009/09/29/jillian-micheals-say-it-aint-so-jill/ [...]

[...] J'ai ri mon chemin travers ces commentaires, mais je tiens souligner quelque chose d'encore plus troublant. Jillian Michaels défend ses produits comme étant toutes les personnes physiques. Tout le monde semble vouloir prendre ses listes d'ingrédients sur la bonne foi. J'ai écrit une entrée de blog propos de la purifier de désintoxication + (sérieusement si un nettoyage ne suffit pas d'une arnaque, vous avez besoin de le doubler en faisant une cure de désintoxication +, comment pouvez-vous obtenir gourmande dans le monde des escroqueries), et elle me tweeted d'affirmer que la purifier a été développé par un des médecins Bariatrics leader dans le monde, le Dr Arnold (sic, il est Arne) Astrup, et je dois me renseigner si je devais tout commentaire.

[...] The line-up also includes Jillian Michaels Triple Process Body Detox & Cleanse plus Probiotic Replenishment. Now it’s really getting strange. The primary ingredients are magnesium oxide (described as detox & cleanse magnesium) and a proprietary blend of probiotics. And there’s a long list of extracts from roots, barks and fruit. The directions say to take 2 metacaps with a full glass of water twice a day for 7 days. The “treatment” may be repeated every 3 to 4 months as desired. Here’s a great rant about this troubling product from You Are Not a Fit Person. [...]

In my open letter to Jillian Michaels I said that I would come back to this post and add a disclaimer that says that it appears as though Jillian Michaels really believes that her triple process cleanse and detox works to help make you healthier. I don’t understand how she can hold these beliefs, but honestly, I think she does. It appears to me that she believes that SOME of her products will work to help you. She has publicly said that she gives her contestants on the biggest loser diet pills to help in weightloss (FOR WHICH I SAY SHAME ON YOU BIGGEST LOSER, YOU DON’T SHARE THAT INFORMATION WITH THE PUBLIC. WHAT ELSE DO YOU DO BEHIND THE SCENES??? GASTRIC BYPASSES??!?).
I totally disagree with what Jillian Michaels is selling. I hope you will see that diet pills and cleanses aren’t the solution. Still, I hope if you are doing Jillian Michaels 30 day shred, that you keep at it. Keep moving. Keep exercising. If imagining Jillian Michaels standing there yelling at you works to keep you motivated, then go on and imagine away. Just remember, good trainers can have bad ideas. Good people can be wrong. I know I am wrong about a lot of things, but this is one thing I don’t think I am wrong about.

Thanks Claire, and I couldn’t agree more with what you are saying. Everything that I have worked hard to achieve has brought me such pride and happiness, including weight loss. Everything I have gotten easily has never meant much to me. Still I always fall back to the easy and lazy route first.
It may be impossible for us to really learn to take the hard, smart and logical route first. I don’t know the solution to this problem because we keep buying these products and in a sense creating the scams we see. We want to believe we can have abs of steel in 3 minutes (after all, the 6 minute abs didn’t work), and voila, along comes the Ab Circle Pro.
We need to come together as a community of people who all believe that eating well and moving more will make you healthy, and by working together bring that knowledge to the people who are so often selling ideas that people want to buy.
Thanks again for the comment!
