Many people who were on Lemon Detox program claims it can effectively cleanses your body, strengthens your immune system, makes you feel energized, gives you a positive, happier outlook on life while also clearing your skin, making your hair shinier and, most importantly to a lot of people, helps you lose weight.
All these benefits is by replacing ALL solid foods with up to 10 glasses of the lemon mix a day (mix of lemons, maple syrup or honey and cayenne pepper) between 5 to 14 days.
A little bit extreme don’t you think? And although many Hollywood celebs & models claims that the drink provided enough nutrients to satisfy one’s hunger cravings, i decided it won’t work for me - any starvation program is simply insane.
So for 5 days, I drink 1 glass of lemon detox every morning before i eat anything and still consume low calorie/ low fat solid food + more fruits. Apart from the 1 kg i lost, i did notice the improvement of my skin. So i guess it works?
How to make a lemon detox drink:
- half glass of ice cold Water.
- 1/2 of a medium to large sized Lemon freshly squeezed.
- 2 tablespoons of honey or 100% Pure Maple Syrup.
- A pinch of ground Cayenne Pepper or ground Ginger
- stir well

Couple of days ago, there are 2 suicide incidents on 2 large malls here in Jakarta. Both victims climbed the fences on the fifth floor and jumped down to the center of those 2 different malls. On the first incident, the victim actually jumped in front of her family who accompanied her to the mall. Deep condolences to the family.
That being said, I really can’t imagine what the victims are going through that make them decide to commit suicide right in that spot? I’m not and have no right to judge suicide, because there are just some people who go through things that maybe beyond what i can comprehend. I get that. But, what can be so devastating that make them can’t wait until he/she get to a more private place to do it? after all suicide is a really private business. Unless if thy are trying to make some sort of statement that is.
Surely, there are lots of other boring way to exit this miserable world such as OD on pills, drinks cleaning products, slit your wrist, blow your head up with a gun, etc but jumping off fifth floor is really a dumb way to go. I mean come on! you could ended up paralyze for life instead of dead, which is worst.
just sayin’ ok!
So what would be “the way” for me? I guess it will involve sky diving from a cliff or plane (or something). So on the long free fall way down i still get to think if there is really no other way for me. Who knows if the adrenalin kick in and I suddenly realize that i still have so much to live for and decide pull the parachute instead (which will be great because i get some kind of second chance), or stick to the suicide plan (which will be great too, because mission will definitely be accomplished in a awesome way)
Again, just sayin’

Cloudy with a chance of meatballs is awesome! inventing a device to turn water into food rain of cheese burger and ice cream and pancake and meatballs is so frikkin’ imaginative and genius!
After watching the movie, i really want to eat meatballs pasta! *ngiler* And because i can not make meatballs pasta rain, i figured the next logical thing is to cook it myself. So…ta dahhh…
In case you are wondering, this is macaroni with meatballs. I know it’s not much of a looker but it is actually edible!
Oh okehhh, maybe i should just go to pasta de waraku
I decided that i’m sick of my diet already so i’m quitting. It’s been 1,5 month and my total weight loss is 2kg. A bit short of my 5kg target, but it’s ok because all my pants can fit allright now, and that is what’s count for me.
To celebrate the and of the diet misery, i had these!!! cold stone vanilla ice cream with reeses, kit-kat & pie crumb toppings. Ice cream, chocolate, peanut butter & cookies in a package? Taste like heaven. continue reading »
It’s been 2 weeks since i start my diet and the herbalife agent came yesterday to control the progress by doing some weighing and measuring. I must admit that i was pretty dissapointed to find out that i only lose 1 kg !! With all the strict diet & no dinner rules, i guess i was expected to lose more.
However, my waist & hips measurement is less 4cm, that’s the good news.
2 more weeks to go!
