Why lose weight in seven days when you can do it in two?

Everyone wants results yesterday, especially when it comes to weight management and the stress that comes with knowing that any realistic weight loss goal will require hard work and time. This includes a healthy diet, exercise and some supplementation.

A product called 2 day slim down is marketed by the parent company as a shortcut for dieters who are pressed for time and need to shed some pounds immediately. The company offers specific figures of up to 12 pounds of weight loss in as little as two days.

Wow! That sounds remarkable, but the question is, does it really work? It might actually work to some extent, but the results might be deceiving. The product is actually more of a laxative and a diuretic than a dietary supplement, so you might just be shedding excess water weight...
