Jillian Michaels Detox Water

The Jillian Michaels Detox Water. After personally trying it myself I am offering my humble opinion and sharing everything you need to know!

In a world full of “detoxes and diets” its easy to get sucked in and try them all… Trust me I have tried most of them.

I have become the “Mikey” of trying these crazy Pinterest diets and detox waters. Remember those Life cereal commercials from your childhood where the cereal bowl keeps being past down the line, and no one wants to try the cereal themselves, but they urge “Mikey” to try it. Well, consider me your “Mikey” I’ll take on all these viral Pinterest crazes and give you my humble, honest opinion.

So back to the task at hand, the Jillian Michaels Detox Water. This one has had a somewhat shady back story; apparently, it was adopted by an “Anorexic Supporters” group… So if you poke around and read any of the comments, you’ll see a lot of negativity. I AM NOT Anorexic, nor could I ever be or ever want to be. It is a serious issue, and anyone battling with this needs to seek help! It is not a healthy lifestyle. I support detox waters as an aide in helping in healthy weight loss. OK Politics aside, this actually is very effective detox water. Here is the recipe for Jillian Michael’s Detox Water…

Jillian Michales Detox Water has taken the internet by storm! Find out why people love it so much and how it is helping millions to drop 5-8lbs in a week!

Jillian Michael's Detox Water 

Servings 1

Ingredients

60 ounces Purified Water

2 TBS Pure Cranberry Juice - Pure cranberry juice always best, but ocean spray diet juice works as well.

2 TBS Lemon Water

1 Bag Dandelion Root Tea - Stewed ( I found my tea at Walmart in the beverage aisle near the crystal light)

This is a replacement for normal water intake and not a meal replacement!

Dandelion Tea has a history and reputation for breaking down fat and removing it from your body via good old fashioned waste… So you may have increased bowel movements, so be prepared for this.

Does it actually work?! 

Now for the part, you have been waiting for… Does the Jillian Micheal’s Detox Water Work!?? In my humble, honest opinion, it does! I just added the ingredients to my gallon jug of water that I drink daily and chugged away! It does have a somewhat acquired taste. The first day I had to force myself to chug it… But after a bit, I got used to the taste. I see a few others added stevia and Splenda to theirs to help sweeten it up. Not sure if I would like that, but I wanted to throw it out as an option if you are struggling to get the drink down.

After a couple days, I saw a visible decrease in excess “bloating” around my middle. Gotta love that!! It definitely cleaned me out. (I tried thinking of a classy way of saying this… )

I would recommend this detox water after a week of indulgence, to help get you back on track or lose the vacation pounds you may have gained. Or to slim down before a big event.

Bottom Line: It does receive my stamp of approval!

via GIPHY

Many of you have asked questions on how to prepare this! Here is a short video on how to make Jillian Michael’s Detox Water for yo’ self!

How to prepare your detox water: 

This post has been shared so much. I am grateful and humbled that it has helped so many of you lose a few pounds. Your success stories make me SOOO happy! 

Since writing this post and review of the Jillian Michaels Detox Water, I have received hundreds of emails with questions. Here I will tackle some of the most frequently asked questions y’all had, so you have everything you need to totally rock this detox.

Your FAQs Answered: 

  1. What to eat: This seems to be a totally legit question and one I ask myself all the time. To make the most of your detox, you’ll want to keep your diet very clean and limit carbs and sugar. No fun, I know – but if you’re going to lose weight fast, this is what you need to do, sadly.
  2. When to drink: Make your drink and drink it ALL day long to avoid having to pee in the middle of the night, which is the worst – stop drinking a couple hours before you go to bed.
  3. Can I exercise? Absolutely – Make sure you keep it light- as long as you are not going crazy and running miles upon miles. Try some light yoga or some LISS (low-intensity steady-state cardio); these are your best options!
  4. Will I be irritable: Possibly. You are cutting sugar, carbs, and caffeine – that will make anyone a little bit crazy. But use this mind ninja hack and tell your brain you are choosing this. Seriously, you can talk your brain into some crazy shiz.
  5. Any extra tips? Plan ahead, make sure you have everything you need on hand, and make sure and grab my detox cheat sheets, which offer even more HELP. The cheat sheets come with my 7-day meal plan for FREE! You’re welcome 😉 

Good Luck my dear friends! Feel free to shoot me an email with ANY additional questions you may have – andie{at}maybeiwill.com

      You can drink this one every couple weeks.. You do not want to drink this one all the time. A great all the time Diet drink is the Apple Detox drink! It is great for energy and the cinnamon will help stabilize your sugar levels so you won&#39;t crave sugar as much. Good Luck!!!!

          I would not do the detox for longer than a week 7 days. Longer that can be hard on your body.

            Erica, you’ll want to drink up to a gallon of the concoction daily! And it is very helpful with weight-loss! 🙂 Good Luck!

      The most potent detox drink is the Sassy Water.. It will help you lose 5-7 lbs in a week. I posted the recipe for that one last Friday. The above mentioned detox works wonders as well and is also a great choice. To lose 25 pounds like you would like, will take some time and hard work! These detox drinks are a great aide. You&#39;ll want to add a healthy diet and exercise to optimize your weight

    The cranberry juice you have shown in the picture is NOT the kind of cranberry juice for this detox. You need to purchase PURE no sugar added cranberry concentrate. It&#39;s pricey, about $12-$14 a bottle, but it&#39;s a main ingredient in this detox water. One tablespoon of a from concentrate juice won&#39;t do anything to help you.

      Mary, Thanks for your input!! I have tried this detox several times with the above pictured cranberry juice and have had success each time. I&#39;m sure the pure cranberry is best if you can afford it and have it on hand… I&#39;ll have to keep an eye out for it 😉

    You should really use organic cranberry juice, pure juice from the cranberry (it should be the ONLY ingredient) – not Ocean Spray. Also use real lemon juice from lemons.

    Ice done this, sub. parsley for the dandelion tea, and it works just as good! I used parsley because it cleans out kidneys better, and I have PKD. I was satisfied with my results, I felt 167% better after my kidney was axting up for a few days.

      I too have kidney issues. How much parsley did you use? Did you keep the rest of the recipe the same? What kind of results did you get?

      To Steep/Stew the tea just place tea bag in a mug of boiling water and let sit 10-15 minutes. Then I just but the mug with the hot water and tea bag right into my gallon jug. I hope that clears it up!! Good Luck!!! Love- Andie
