I have so much to post about, but I need to rant...
People are popping up left and right with their stupid cleansing shit. Maybe because it's almost summer or something but it is ALL OVER my facebook newsfeed. I keep hiding and reporting it as spam, but apparently facebook doesn't get the hint that I don't wanna see that shit.
NEWSFLASH -
You don't need to spend hundreds of dolla bills on these "cleanses"
The part that actually makes you lose weight is the FOOD THAT YOU ARE EATING.
Have you checked the ingredients on these shakes?
DAFUQ do you need all that random shit for?

Sounds super lean. And full of garbage. That you don't need.
BROMALAIN! WHERE MY BROS AT? I got some MALAIN FOR YOU!
This isn't clean eating. This isn't some magic weight loss tool. This is a quick fix, not a lifestyle change (Well, unless you want to spend hundreds of dollars on non-food shakes every month. for the rest of your life. Sounds like a blast.)
Here's an idea. Cleanse your body by NOT EATING SHIT. You have a liver and kidneys for a reason. You don't need these fucking chemicals and "herbs" and "roots" and "blends" that your body probably can't absorb anyways to "cleanse" your system. IT DOES IT ITSELF. It's like fucking magic. Just stop putting crap in your body, and you'll feel great. You don't need all this extra shit for all this extra money.
And a wrap? You're going to wrap yourself in some more chemicals and hope to shed pounds and keep them off???? Read literally ANY literature on losing weight. This isn't how it's done. PLEASE don't buy into this. It even SOUNDS ridiculous.
Seriously, all these people are trying to do is make a quick buck off you. And then talk you into selling it, and waste your time to get more money from YOUR friends.
Don't be THAT GUY. Fer realz. Don't do it. We'll judge you. Hard.
If you need a protein shake, get some legit actual grass fed protein, and take it after your workout, when it is most effective. Don't replace your meals with it. The meals where you should be getting your nutrients from ACTUAL FOOD.
You want to do a cleanse? Don't eat sugar for 30 days. Cleanse your body by eliminating what it doesn't need, not ADDING extra shit that it can't use.
If you have any questions on this, please let me know. I'll be happy to show you the light. I don't have all the answers, but I can point you in the right direction to those that do. And it won't cost you ANY MONEY. (well except for food. I can't buy the food for you. ;) I'll cook it for ya though!)
Just eat the goddamn food. PLEASE.
