Grapefruit Diet

Posted on 05/23/08, 09:14 am

Has anyone ever tried a diet with grapefruit? For example, having a grapefruit in the morning and drinking grapefruit juice before bed. I'm trying this to see if it works. I eat a low carb lunch, like a veggie, meat and fruit, then try to eat a good dinner and not snack at night. Any of suggestions? Thanks.

  Good luck! It doesn't sound like you're eating only grapefruit, so that's good. I think it could get old fast and you may lose your motivation. Just something to think about. I hope it works for you! Just remember to have a healthy diet otherwise and exercise. Those are the key components.

  My mother made us do a diet similar to this when I was a teen. I hate grapefruit,, so it was torture!! It worked for me (short term), because i was so sick from the grapefruit I didn't eat much otherwise. So I was acutally starving all the time. The grapefruit also made my mouth break out in ulcers. That is why my mother agreed to stop!
  
  As long as you are getting the healthy foods you need and you LIKE grapefruit, go for it!
  
  Good luck, let us know if it works for you!
