I promised to remeasure everything so I could see exactly what happened from the cleanse. I did not expect much, though, since I was technically only on the cleanse for two days. I waited until I had been on real food for at least two days before I took any measurements. Here are the new measurements (and the difference).

Weight: 145 lbs (-2 lbs)

Chest: 37" (-.75")

Waist: 33" (-1")

Hips: 37.75" (-.25")

Thighs: 21.25" (-1.5")

Arm: 10.25" (same)

Calf: 14.25" (-.25")

Wrist: 6" (same)

Average body fat: 31.85% (-1.45%)

The allergic reaction I had is 99% gone now. I am sure it was from the cleanse, though. If it was a direct reaction, it would have been a symmetrical spread of hives (like every other time it has occurred), but this time was only one side of the face, and did not spread from a central location. My energy is back (thank you, God!). I still become queasy if I eat more than minimal amounts of junk food, which....I am okay with that aspect. It makes me look at how much of what I just ate and then I am shocked.

All in all, I am convinced that the cleanse is not all hype. If it was, I don't think my measurements would have changed like that. If it was hype, the random allergic reaction would not have happened. I know I will never try the cleanse again because of the "getting old" factor of it for me, but I would recommend it to others who are looking for a way to detoxify their bodies.
