My Mom did this she lost like 10 pounds in 2 week I think but its crazy she didnt eat or drink anything but the mixture and I have seen the mixture it doesnt look like it taste very good
It is crazy!!!! I heard that it really didn't taste bad- like a spicy lemonade. I know that if I didn't like the way it tasted, I would NOT be able to do it. I am not too concerned with loosing weight, but I just wanted something to rejuvenate me and heard that cleanses were good to do once in awhile. I think I may wait for my friend to finish and see what she thinks.
Why not just a colonic at on those clinic /spa? People seem rejuvenate from them.
What is that exactly? Sounds scary!

Re: Master Cleanse
isn't it where they insert a tube in your butt then pump water in to clean your intestines out, then suck the water back out? I always thought they sounded scary. Never had one...

Re: Master Cleanse
yuck. Just the thought of drinking that weird concoction makes me gag. I'll eat less and move more. I don't buy any of that flushing the body of toxins stuff. Your body should do that on its own.

OMG! I did that cleanse for like 2 weeks!!! the drink is actually pretty good and u really don't feel hungry plus u lose weight!
Ok so we have one person that is in favor! I feel like I just want to try it out!!!
Beleive it or not, u even feel energized. The only thing that was a pain on the neck is that u have to bring a big bottle with u everywhere 'cause that's ur only meal and u have to explain to eveybody what it is 'cause people curiosity is unbeleivable lolol
That is what my friend said!! She said she feels awesome and sleeps great!!! I was thinking about the questions too!!! SO annoying to deal with, but whatever. I would just try not to make a big deal of it. Only thing is how are you supposed to get out of 'eating' when you go out to dinner. That is why I am going to wait to start it if I do decide to do it. I have a dinner party coming up and will look like a fool if I sat there and passed on food hahaha
Hahahah! so true! I rememeber the day before I did it, I ate so much of my favorite food! 'Cause I thought it was gonna be hard not to eat but I actually didn't miss it?!? Maybe because I was so determined to finish it. Let us know how it goes if u decide to do it

Re: Master Cleanse
I've never tried this, and probably never would be able to...but I have a close friend (one of my BM's actually) who does this about twice a year and the results are incredible.
She doesn't need to lose weight, but after a long summer of eating food at her the BBQ restaurant her husband owns, she feels that it really detoxifies herself. After she does the cleanse, I can see how her skin glows and she just looks incredible.
She has told me that you really need to follow the instructions to the 't' or else your body will freak out and you'll get very sick. Also, if you're on any medication, you can't do this because you have to eliminate everything from your system.

Ohhhhhhh thanks for the information!!! I really think I am going to try it! I'm not on any medication and I don't drink coffee, so there won't be any withdrawal or anything. I think it is worth a shot!

Re: Master Cleanse
I rarely ever post but when I saw this I thought it would be helpful if let you know how my experience went.
The whole point of this diet is really to cleanse your body of toxins. Sometimes dr.s put their patients on it to try and find out what foods they might be allergic to (by slowly introducing food back into the diet) Also i know people who were put on it to clear up acne (by removing toxins) . I did it because I read about it and I wanted to see if i had enough self control to actually do it! I love i love iove eating lol, I researched it alot. You are supposed to 'go to the bathroom' alot while on this. I read someones blog where they said they were a vegetarian for 7 years and while on the cleanse a piece of meat actually 'came out' 7 years later!!! yuckkkkk OK back to the diet. I did it for 7 days.So I bought everything and made like 40 bottles and kept them in the fridge. Day 1 was torture the smell of food made me crazy but i did it and the drink was disgusting however you really do get used to it by day 3. I was loosing weight very quicky but you are really starving yourself ( the lemon juice is supposed to give you vitamin c, the syrup gives you carbs, and the cyan pepper is to help aid in the cleansing -if you know what i mean ;). Everynight you have to drink 32 ounces of warm salt water in one shot ! DISGUSTING!!! The whole point is that it makes you go to the bathroom thats where the cleanse part comes in. However this was not working for me it actually had the opposite effect. By day 7 i lost about 11 pounds. However I had dark circles under my eyes and I was not feeling 'energetic' like people claim and i was very short tempered. If done correctly you are supposed to slowly introduce food back into your diet when the cleanse is over(ie raw vegetables and soup) Like all of these fad diets, the weight comes right back on very quickly. I also read that it can cause brain damage if done for too long. If you are looking for a quick fix (like you have an event to go to in a week) then it def. works , (Beyonce has said she has done it before events) but long term noooo way. The worst part is the warm salt water. Also if your going to do it be prepared for some serious bathroom time :) I read someones blog where they were going in there sleep!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Master Cleanse
I once brought something like this up to my gastro and he glared at me and said, 'are you high?' no joke.
Lol. Needless to say i passed. Lots of acid and spicy stuff wreaks havok on your ph in your system.

That's one of the several reasons I just couldn't attempt this. My body rebels against me enough as it is.
I would definitely recommend anyone discussing this with their doctor before attempting it. It's not for everyone (or most people for that matter), but like I said, I've seen some remarkable results with others.

Oh myyyyyy!! hahaha thanks for your response!! This girl on You Tube does it for 40 days!!!! That is just INSANE!! However, my friend is doing this cleanse and she does a tea laxative every night before bed instead of the salt and said she only goes to the bathroom in the morning- but it does give her a little bit of cramps at night. Ughhhh I think I am just going to try it and see. If I feel awful, I will stop.

Re: Master Cleanse
I tried this last year before I took my bpics. While I didn't feel weak or hungry, my skin broke out like crazy! I have pretty clear skin and it looked disgusting! I stopped doing it after three days because of that!

Wow there are so many completely different outlooks and experiences! Thanks for letting me know! I wouldn't be able to deal if it made me break out!

Soooooo my friend just started this cleanse. It is supposed to do what all of the others do- rid your body of bad things and such. All you drink/eat is a lemonade that you make with fresh lemons, cayan peppers, and some organic syrup. I was like W T F at first because it seems nuts, but now think I want to try it. I watched this girl on YouTube that did it for 40 days!!! Her results were amazing. I would never be able to last that long- I would try for ten, but check it out if you want!
Edited because I wanted to ask if any of you have ever done something like this before and your take on it....
