As wonderful as technology is sometimes it throws you for a loop. I made a day 8 update yesterday and apparently it didn’t get published to this blog. Oh well, these things happen.
Back to the Master Cleanse…
We’re heading into the final days of the cleanse and everything is going well for me. I’m starting to pass solid material during eliminations including some small gall stones. As gross as it sounds it’s actually motivating to see the waste come out of your body.
My sleep has also improved. I’m falling asleep as soon as my head hits the pillow and waking up about 1 hour earlier then usual. Some people think the Master Cleanse leaves you famished and drained, but as anyone who’s done the cleanse will tell you it’s the exact opposite, you start to feel light and energized as the cleansing process starts to work.
I’ve been reading through all the comments and I’m thrilled with everyone’s progress. To all of you who joined in to do this New Year Master Cleanse I want to congratulate you on sticking with it this far. We only have one more day to go – keep up the good work!
.
I have to agree with you. I feel great and have been sleeping really well. I don’t even mind the salt water flush at all.
Day 7 of the master cleanse feeling very good I think this is the best tasting cleanse n it’s super cheap I’ve spent $300 on other stuffs n it doesn’t do as good of a job as this cleanse. If I didn’t have such a big event to go to this weekend I’ve would stick to this diet for 10 days or longer but this is the end of my journey with the master cleanse maybe next time I do the cleanse I’ll try and last longer
Actually I didn’t try this product but I wanna try it the soonest because I was inspired by everyone who used it and experience the changes of their body. Hope you can tell me if where can I buy this book?
Day 5 – Gosh was day 1-3 so hard nearly gave in but with all the support online i’ve made it, still hard though. Toxins are exiting me finally, i’m sure it will get worse much before it gets better!
Day 8!! I feel great! Lost 10.5 lbs! So much energy so glad I did this cleanse!!
DAY 9: This has been a GREAT experience! Down 13 lbs! Blood pressure (top number down 20 points; lower number down 7 pts). Also, I can’t believe the GOOK that comes out when I go to the toilet! It’s simultaneously amazing and alarming! By the way, if you’re having headaches, drink more water and lemonade and slow your activity pace a bit. I noticed that I’d get headaches before I went to the bathroom. After I’d go to the bathroom, the headache would go away. I guess the headaches are caused by the toxins “floating around” and “on their way out” of your body. Take it easy! Go slow!
I can’t wait to try this the soonest. Having read the the good effects of master cleanse makes me wanna try this so so soon. Anyone where can i possibly buy the book?
Day 1 of the cleanse for me. It’s 6:42pm, and so far I feel fine. I am worried about the fact that I have only had 2 glasses of lemonade and 1 glass of water… and I did the saltwater flush last night…and have not had a BM yet. Is that normal? Tips/comments are very welcome! This is my first time, so I’ve been reading as much as I can find about it online, but any tips or tricks you can share would be greatly appreciated! I figure if I can make it to Day 3, then I am golden.
On day 8 and feeling a lot of energy. Started out at 177 lbs and now at 166 lbs. I changed from organic lemons to just regular lemons 3 days ago and since then, no wait loss!! I think this is just a coincidence?? Or does it really matter a lot what type of lemons you consume?? Well I am not going to worry about it. Overall, this has been quite a great experience!!
Hey, I’m reading a lot of posts and people are ‘drinking’ wheatgrass and psyllium? That is NOT the way the cleanse was set out to be – Stanley Burroughs specifically says to follow the recipe – no wonder these people are starving! I’m on my 6th cleanse, each 10-14 days and feel amazing at day 5, but why slow or stop the process of the cleanse by putting something into your body that wasn’t intended for the cleanse (such as vegetable broth, psyllium, decaf lemon tea, etc. etc. on this blog). If you’re going to starve your body of food and cleanse, why waste your time and add in extra ingredients because you heard it from someone else who doesn’t know what they’re doing?
This is my first cleanse. Today is day one. I’ve had a pretty awful headache. And I’m not really hungry. I love the swf. But this headache thing could be a major problem.
day 8 feel great but scared to weigh myself ,i only loss 3pounds 2 days ago and worried i might want to stop if i see that i only loss 1 or maybe nothing it may make me want to stop so i think i’ll just wait to day 10…good luck everyone
I’m on day four and feel ok. Day two and three were much harder. Pot Lucks and free food all over work this week!
I’m now on my day 4! I have lost 6 lbs. I have exact same problems and symtoms as you. I hope too keep up with you. Go, Deb!
Hi everyone,
I am on day 3 of the cleanse. I am doing pretty good so far. I find it helpful to take a nap when i come home from work usually around 6pm-8pm which is great cause I would miss dinner time. I have been drinkiing the tea and i really feel my hollow stomach. It makes loud sounds … 🙁
This is my first time and i am very eager to complete the cleanse. Has anyone got sick from eating too soon after the diet? The reason i ask is because I am going away to an all-inclusive right after my clease and worried i might get sick. Any thoughts?
Hello, I am half way into day 3!! So far I have lost 4 lbs. I started this because I have had a lot of recent stress, weight gain, depression and over all just worn out from it all. As of day three, I have had headacheds up until today- joint pain on day two and on day three- the new one is now a stuffy nose and definitely not as energectic as I had hoped. I am going to complete ten days and then do the three days of juice, veggies and fruit. I have high hopes that it is what I need to bounce back to my old self. Great posts, it definitely helps to read as the days pass for me.
Hello. This is day 8th day for me and I feel amazing. I thought that I wasn’t going to be able to get through this but I only have a few days left now. During this time, I have been thinking about my new diet. This was a wonderful experience. I feel young, energetic, and healthy; so far I have lost 10lbs. I did this diet because I started drinkingand smoking alot and I felt that I was mistreating my body and this was a new year to change things. After, doing this diet I will never smoke again. I will try not to drink and if I feel the urge to drink I will drink a glass a wine. Thanks!
I am at the end of day 3 of my cleanse. Everything seems to be going okay so far. However, I have had extreme diarrhea, so I cut out the salt water flush or tea in the a.m. The tea seems to be more than enough with just doing it at night. I don’t even think I could stomach the SWF or the tea in the morning. Also, I had extreme dizziness yesterday, so until the diarrhea stops, I won’t be reintroducing the SWF or the tea in the morning. The one question or concern I have is that I am extremely tired!! Will that go away?? It is like it alternates between having energy in the morning and then just being tired in the afternoon. The hunger pangs have not really been an issue at all so far, but I go to work tomorrow, so who knows?
Hi Raylen just wanted to post a comment.I started the master cleanse a day late . Just wanted to congratulate every one on a good job. Well done! iam on day nine starting Sunday moring, doing just great. may GOD BLESS you ALL.
Hello. It’s day 5 of the cleanse for me. I started at 247.5 and today I weighed in at 231.5.
I’m doing 60oz of mix in the morning, and about 40-50oz of water during the day as well. Laxative tea at night. I’m not having bowel movements as much like I thought I would, most consist of watery diarhea and some solids. Since this is the 5th day, should I start seeing more bowel movements?
It definately feels like it’s getting easier today, i’m not having the hunger urges like I have been the past few days. I’ve had headaches off an on for a few days, but they seem to be getting better as well. If anyone has any advice, please comment. Thank you.
This is day 9 for me, only 1 (well 2 since it is morning) and I am feeling pretty good. I am not as hungry as I was a couple of days ago. I am not seeming to be clearing too much out of my intenstines, though. My last cleanse seemed to get a lot more out. I am not doing the laxative tea this time, though, and maybe that is why. Well, congrats to all of you who are finishing up today. Good job. I plan to do it again to start next year!
morning of day seven for me and yesterday was tough. I work for a company that has an in-house catering service and they were working for two meeting that both offered to share their lunches with my team. All around me my co-workers were eating these great smelling foods…. I actually pretended to not feel well and left at 3:30. I never do that. It was all about self preservation though… the final straw was when i went into the break room to get a refill of lemon/syrup drink and catering had left plates of food for those who wanted to bring the extras home!! Jeesh. I’m not a saint. I went to bed early. I’m doing the SWF this morning. I’ve done it in the past and although I don’t like drinking saltwater, the results are well worth it.
I’m on day 4 and last night was horrible! I woke up about 3 times had to run to the bathroom and afterwards I felt so weak and dizzy I though I was going to faint. Any ideas why this happened? I’m scare to take the tea now. Days 1-3 were wonderful just last night it was not.
I went to your website to try and purchase your book for alternatives to the traditional cleanse, but I was unable to click through and purchase the book. Is there something wrong with the website or is there another way to get the book?
Ok I am at the end of day 8.And I have lost 8 pds.
The 4th day was the worst for me as far as food cravings.I dreamed of food that morning and then thought of food through out the day.After that day it has been pretty easy.I have had a hard time drinking the whole 60 oz lemonaid.I am going to make it through to the 10 days.I wasn’t sure i could when i started.I feel good!
Day 3 – no cravings or hunger. I watched my co-worker have her lunch and didn’t even mind. I just made more lemonade and that’s it. I was planning to end it tomorrow but I might just keep going.
Hey Raylen, I was wondering what happened yesterday wanted to write in but there was no Day 8 thought you fell off the wagon anyways glad your back. Well I lost my 10 lbs. and my colon seems like its cleaned out to me so I decided to eat tonight so had some soup. Wow was that total bliss! I am thinking now about eating 1 or maybe 2 meals a day then continue on with the lemonade the rest of the day till I get to my ideal weight. So for now I am done with the MC. I am so glad you had this blog that really helped me to be accountable. When I do the MC again I’d like to blog daily again. So for now Adios!!!
Thank you,
