A big concern with the master cleanse is keeping off the weight you lost after you finish the cleanse…
Hey Everyone, I am on my 11th day out of 14 of the MC. I haven’t had a problem with hunger or anything, but today seems to be my crashing day. I really just want to eat something, not junk food.. but a salad or soup. I am really starting to get scared about gaining the weight back, i do not plan on going back to my old habits but i am still very scared. I haven’t weighed myself yet though everyone sees a huge weight difference in me .. besides me!
There are so many options for me to choose from but i would like if someone could please show me the best path to go, I wish to become a vegetarian soon.. I really would like some help on this one, I was thinking about doing it for 20days … Yes? No?..
Oh, I am 17 years YOUNG, 5?2 and last time i checked i was 146 lbs. but i had lost over 20 pounds before that ( just from eating right and working out every morning ) .. my goal is not necessarily to be a specific weight, but i just want to be comfortable with my body and be healthy!
Help?
Of course if you jump right back into bad eating habits you’ll gain back the weight you’ve lost, but if you follow the advice from my after the master cleanse blog post you should be fine.

Can I take my alergy meds while on the MC ?
Yesturday was my day 3 and my head was stuffed the night before, in the morning it ran all day, I sneezed alot and now have a sore nose from blowing. Also everyone I spoke with asked me if I had a cold. This morning I am the same. It is day 4 for me and the only negetive feelings I have are my sinases. I did take 1/2 a pill last night, and thought maybe 1/2 a dose in the eve would be better, if it would help me finish my 10 days. Thanks, Lori
I have the same problem as Jane, i started this cleanse 5 days ago, this is my sixth day, i had dance class on 2 days and i felt great. i weighed myself on the 4th day and i was 172((sadly i didnt weigh myself b4)), next day i was 173, now today i'm 173.5. WHATS GOING ON !!!! i feel great, i look different, i follow the diet, although i probably never successfully drank a full serving of the SWF. Dont mean to be gross, but i haven't see any of that rubber-looking stuff come out yet. Can somebody help to understand if this normal ?
Hi, I just found your blog and I love it! I am writing for a little guidance. I am on my 7th day of the Master Cleanse with 6 servings a day. I sadly have only lost 3 pounds. Is this strange? This is my third time doing the cleanse in about 3 years - the first I lost 13 pounds and the second I lost 10. My plan is to go for 14 days - do you think more weight will come off? I am very sad about this and I am not sure why this is happening. Thanks so much for your guidance! - Jane
Julie,
follow the Master Cleanse Book by Raylen!! It's extremely helpful and it suggests that you ease into the MC for 3 days and then go full force for 10 or more days. I did it for 11 days in April, didn't cheat and felt amazing. I'm only on day 2 today, I'm tired, cranky and I have a headache but I'm not giving up because I know it will pass.
You can do it!!!!
What 'went wrong' is you quit.
Get back on that horse, and ride!
Read about the diet from a reliable source, determine you are willing to do what needs to be done...and be happy.
I tried the MC, began yesterday, and FAILED. I did just as I was instructed. I became so sick at my stomach I couldn't take another drink of even water let alone the lemonade drink. Any suggestions as to WHY, it was so hard on me. My head hurt so badly that I couldn't even focus and I had to go to bed. Slept for apprx. 10 hours and this morning I feel defeated. I wanted so badly to succeed. Any suggestions, as to what went wrong?
I really want to start the master cleanse diet already, but for some reason I really don't know the proper steps on doin it. Can u please email me the proper steps asap so I can start it :)
Thank you..
Congraulations on making it through 11 days! I've done the Master Cleanse for 15 days twice and it totally changed my life. I plan on doing it again in September.
I cannot recommend anyone becoming a vegetarian. I've tried it several times and it almost killed me once. Please read what Dr. Jordan Ruben says about this in his book, THE MAKER'S DIET. Also look up the Weston A. Price Foundation's website and see what they say about vegiterianism. IT IS A BAD IDEA FOR ANYBODY TO EAT LIKE THAT FOR ANY GREAT LENGTH OF TIME!!!!!!
My neice has seen cadavers of vegiterians and many of their organs were enlarged and diseased from following this totally unnatural way of trying to get protein.
Also, go to mercola.com to learn why soy is terrible for your health. Most of the vegiterian substitutes for meat products are made of soy.
PLEASE, do yourself a favor and research these sources before you take that wrong turn.
Now, this does not mean that I recommend eating the meat sold in the supermarket. Do yourself, and some farmer, a big favor and look for some locally grown, pasture-fed beef. There's nothing like it in the world for rebuilding a healthy body after a major cleanse like the Master Cleanse.
Just trying to help,
Dawn
