I am on day four and I haven’t lost any weight….is it possible to go the whole ten days and not loose any weight?

I have done the cleanse at least once a year for many years now. I have stayed very active, including very intense boot camp type workouts during some of them and felt just fine. You know yourself and modify accordingly if need be. I have never experienced headaches during the cleanse but am doing it now and have had one for days 2, 3 and 4 with the worst being today, day 4. I am not a caffeine drinker so withdrawal is not the issue for me. Any other thoughts given a long history of doing the M.C. without them??

I’m on day 2 of the Master Cleanse. Yesterday (day 1) I had the worst headache ever. I had to go home from work and yes, I’m an avid coffee drinker. My headache was blinding and I threw up all the lemonade. Finally, I took a couple ibuprohpen and it took the edge off, but the headache was still there. Today, the headache was not as bad. Still a dull pain, but not throbbing. I used my lunch break to rest in my car and that helped alot. I drank some lemonade when I came back in. I’m feeling better this afternoon. I’m going to keep pressing on!

First time doing the MC, today is day 2. I do not intake any caffiene nor smoke. Bad headache today though, full head from front of forehead to back of neck and shoulders. Maybe too much pepper as I add extra. I use the pulp of the lemon as well, put it all in the blender and mulch it up which gives the drink some substance to it. hope this headache goes away but pretty easy to not eat food. Not going to the bathroom much, after the salt water in the morning but not the rest of the day. I drink the tea at night and today I drank during day and will tonight. I drink 75 oz of lemonade and about 40 additional of water, plus the salt water and tea.

Okay, so a bit of a sting…after a couple days it does pass (get it…pass ) that’s from the cayenne pepper. I did loose the weight, but not the reason for the cleanse. My brother in law, whose a fitness fanatic hooked me up with this. I did get really bad headaches AFTER the first three days! I mean killer headaches. I stopped drinking decafinated drinks sometime back and changed my eating habits…mostly veggies and organic meals from my local health food store. My main reason was because of the change in diet, I wanted to cleanse of all the other bad things out of my body. Now that I’m eating properly and not putting all the junk in the trunk…lol, I can enjoy the benefits of the good stuff. I lasted 6 days due to the really bad headaches. The weight loss of 6lbs was just a benefit. If you can go the full 10 days without headaches, then you can do this. I am giving it another try in about 3 months. Happy Cleansing!
