I am trying to lose a few pounds and wondering where to start. I found the article https://betterme.world/articles/lose-5-pounds-in-3-days-detox/ and I want to start with that. I wonder if I can last three days. If so, I will be proud of myself and continue to lose weight

I figured it out through my fitness pal. let me know if you need any help.

What approach did they recommend?

Your intake of calories will depend upon the amount of calories you burn.  The days that I exercise more are the days that I can afford to splurge a little on the amount of calories I take in.  If I choose to have a less active day I choose to eat fewer calories or eat foods that are lower in calories.  I have lost every week except one since December by using this method.  I'm down 25 pounds.
