People are throwing down the icecream diet without even knowing anything about it and how it works.
The Icecream diet is a real diet, (but it is not part of the liquid diet.)
The icecream diet is currently being researched and has found to be beneficial in weight loss, and for women who are more prone to osteoporosis, because of the high amounts of calcium that is being taken in.
if your body doesn't get enough calcium, fat cells are triggered to store more fat.
In a recent study, people getting their calcium from dairy products lost a much higher percentage of weight than the people on calcium supplements.
Uma Thurman and other hollywood stars swear by the diet, as they use it for preparing for their film roles.
Doctors and scientists in Japan and America have been studying its benefits saying,
a half gallon of ice cream a day (Preferably low/no sugar) along with 100 calorie fat free pudding, calcium enriched low/no fat yogart, and a bar of dark chocolate, can actually be beneficial to the health and diet. (Dark chocolate already has been proven to have positive effects on your heart.)
Some do recommend that you eat 3 days worth of the ice cream diet, and 4 days worth of a well balanced diet including other foods and continue in that pattern as you diet. 3 days on, 4 days off, 3 days on, so forth.
Some recommend eating the diet until you've lost the recommended weight. If you have cravings for a burger, head out instead to Subway and buy a half 6 gram of fat sub to satisfy that craving, then ween to a well balanced diet when you've reached your goals.
There are many forms of this diet out there, but whatever form... many people have said they've lost weight and have kept it off using this diet plan, and have felt much healthier than they were on pills that had side effects, or an all liquid diet.
of course you should always discuss your diet plans with a doctor to make sure you're not doing anything detremental to your health. Not every diet is healthy for everyone.
As for liquid diets that would include (Teas, water, juices, slim fast shakes, ensure or boost, coffee) Most liquid diets may not be suitable for long-term or excessive weight loss. They are, however, of benefit for certain types of procedures both pre- and post-operation, plus they are a type of regimen that is desired following bariatric surgeries.
but if you're not pre or post op, and you're not a bariatric patient, then the liquid diet is not recommended.
My doctor gave me the ok to try the ice cream diet along with my Alli pills he recommended to me.
I lost 15 pounds in 3 weeks, and now that I'm off the ice cream diet and on a healthy diet plan through Alli, I've kept it off and have also been able to lose the 5 extra pounds I was going for. I wasn't fatigued, I wasn't starving, I felt much healthier than when I was starving myself...
Following just the recommended Alli diet with my pills, I was constantly fluctuating in weight, losing then gaining, even though I never had snacks, nor went over my calorie / fat limit, and while I wasn't starving like on some diets, I also wasn't completely satisfied or "full" which sometimes led to late night cravings that causes loss of sleep.
I also wasn't taking in any calcium because milk can be high in fat, and skim makes my stomach turn. So I was putting myself at risk with a lack of calcium content.
So I must say, I liked the ice cream diet personally, for me.
of course I personally had low sugar and low fat ice creams, and I supplimented my proteins through one Turkey sub with a little lettuce and light mayo from subway. It was 4.5 grams of fat, and 210 calories.
I also take a Multi-vitamin and a B100 vitamin (but that's for nerve damage...) however, its been an effective extra in my dieting as well.
always talk to the doc first though for any diet.

You can drink dye free Gatorade, the clear flavors. No Root Beer is not a clear liquid. When you start back up tomorrow I would keep it simple, maybe try some broth and saltine crackers, and if you handle that maybe try some chicken noodle soup. Applesauce, pudding all should be ok to start back onto, I would just eat things that are soft, you don't want to put anything to heavy or thick into your system.

After seeing this I feel the need to share something because I spent many many years switching from diet to diet without experiencing any real results until I discovered Pams magic plan (just google it). It is without a doubt the most weight loss that I have ever had and I have not put it back on to this day.

ice cream and diet are NOT in the same sentence!
whether its liquid or not is irrelevant, i know you'd like to be told the more ice cream you eat the slimmer you will become, but that is not the reality. stay away from the ice cream!
