Maryland Jujitsu schools know that everyone tends to start the new year saying they want to “get healthy” or maybe “lose weight” but most of the time that stuff doesn’t really happen. . . right? Here is an easy solution to help you jump start your diet plan in 3 days time. It is not a liquid diet, or a form of starvation.. It’s a body detox that will cleanse out your system so you can fill it back up after the 3 days with healthier foods that’s good for your body. All diets are some what problematic since it’s hard to change the way you eat.. After going through the detox you’ll be more mindful of basic food choices.

The guidelines for this detox diet is that you cannot consume any salt, sugar, dairy products, or carbohydrates for 3 days. Green raw vegetables and lean proteins are also a part of the program.. The best part of the diet is that you get to eat every 2 hours and you eat until you are full. Kickboxing Classes in MD have to remind their students that they have to eat to lose to weight. You should be drinking at least 32 oz of water every day..
