Re: master cleanse diet

I did it for 9 days straight, following the book to the tee my first time and lost like 11 lbs. It's pretty great if you can do it (hard, obviously) because you just feel so strong and clean. My skin was amazing too.

I've done a few 3 day cleanses since but can't get over that hump without cheating (even if it's just chicken broth.)

eta: it's weird, you feel 'empty' but not hungry if you are taking in enough lemonade. It's all psychological - you want to eat because you crave the taste of food but physically, you don't feel hungry.

It's controversial but it's not only for weight loss. You 'reset' your tastebuds and your relationship with food. Eating after coming off the cleanse was a great experience. you don't crave junk, you want healthy things.

I wish I could've stayed on it longer the first time because I haven't been able to get over the 3 day hump since.

maybe I'll try again!

Yup. The salt water flush is the hardest to follow for many people but it is important to do IMO. The tea loosens everything up and the walt water flushes it out. You have butt pee.

The maple syrup (grade b) you can get it at whole foods or trader joes. The senna tea you can also get at whole foods or GNC type places. I used Smooth Move chocolate flavor. the non iodized salt you can get at whole foods and trader joes too.

read the book by stanley burroughs, it's very short but really interesting.

I mean, I would. Why not? There is a lot of misinformation on the internet, it's helpful to follow his directions. It's literally more of a pamplet, a fast read!

If you're only doing it for weight loss, it's kind of harder to stick with it IMO. He explains the point of the cleanse. Weigh loss is a benefit but I think if you know the other benefits of cleansing and the purpose of the cayenne, etc, it's easier to stick with it.

Are you going to try it soon?

If you are trying to lose weight for the actual wedding next friday, I would start the saturday in the am because if you are just going to do this until this friday, the weight will come back almost immediately and you'll have to do it again next week anyway.

What I would do this week is wean yourself off of coffee and other caffeine, fried foods, junk, etc so your body won't be so shocked on saturday (alot of people use the cleanse to break addiction to caffeine, cigarettes, etc in addition to food addiction). You can get bad withdrawal symptons if you are used to eating crap.

Then after the RD on friday, take the tea and start with the flush on saturday morning.

just take it easy when at the wedding though with what you eat and drink. You are supposed to go off a cleanse slowly with broth etc, not alcohol

Re: master cleanse diet

what exactly do you do on this cleanse?

Re: master cleanse diet

If your really looking to loose some weight I would suggest just eating very very clean and no carbs after 1pm. You could defiantly drop 4-8 lbs in a week/ week and a half. Its not long term but if you need it off for something soon I would suggest it.
