I know it is not recommended for us. Keep in mind that you will still have to change the way you eat. And let's face it, if it is that "simple" you can do that without all that pain. Just sayin....

For me it's not safe. Too much for the body to handle.
As for your health, it's priority but you have to want it. Maybe look for other ways.
Try slow by having control, eat portions and be consistent, positive!!
Good luck in whatever you choose. Remember your health is important
