How Robin Dropped Pounds, Fast
When it comes to healthy living, Robin Quivers will tell you she's got it nailed. After years of weight problems and muscle pain that defied any cure, an unorthodox diet has put her back on top. "It turned out to be a lifesaver for me," Quivers insisted.
The secret is the so-called Master Cleanser Fast. And at a recent Self magazine event at New York's Exhale Spa, Robin told "Extra" it was Howard Stern’s guest, David Blaine, who got her started.
"He said, ‘I usually clean out my body and I do this fast called the Master Cleanser,’" Robin revealed. Tipping the scales back then at 220 pounds, she was desperate for help.
She gave it a shot, taking in only the Master Cleanser's mix of lemon juice, maple syrup, cayenne pepper and water for 21 days at a time. After three separate fasts, the results were amazing, "I lost a total of 70 pounds. I'm not in any pain, and I feel wonderful."
Nutritionist Dr. Frederic Vagnini cautioned that, although it worked for Quivers, the Master Cleanser may not be for everyone: "It’s something that really should be done under medical supervision."
But while Robin now combines the Cleanser fast with food like fish and salads, she's forever grateful that those unusual ingredients didn’t put her off. "It really sort of tastes like lemonade, and it is part of my life," she insisted.
Robin's professional life is going well too. She's in talks for a new movie role, and she's been approached about hosting her own talk show. For more on Robin’s new look, check out Tuesday’s edition of "Extra."
