Cons: frequent trips to the bathroom, stomach pains
At the beginning of the summer I looked into a variety of different products that would allow me to cleanse my system in order to prepare for a summers worth of formal events that included me squeezing into formal dresses. I had never done a cleanse before, and I knew pretty much what it was going to involve, but I never anticipated so many trips to the bathroom. The cleanse did get rid of some of the water weight I was carrying, but I didn't lose a whole lot of inches off my waist. I felt thinner and leaner, but I also felt a bit dehydrated. I felt like I wasn't able to eat without anticipating some stomach cramping or a stomachache. I didn't like the feeling it gave me of knowing I was going to be visiting the bathroom so often. I thought with it being an Acai Berry Cleanse, that it might have been healthier than a laxative option, but in reality it was no different. It did clean out my system I guess, but it was really at a cost. I guess that is basically what it was going to to, but I don't think I will be in that desperate of need to "clean" out my system like that again.
