Well summer’s almost here and a lot of us are scrambling to lose a quick couple pounds to get our selves ready for the beach. As you might have guessed I feel the best way to lose weight fast is with the master cleanse, and lucky for us a reader of this blog named Mike posted some really good tips in the comment section that I want to share with all of you…<\/p>\n
Hi,<\/p>\n
I\u2019m currently on Day 7, and it\u2019s been manageable, but also a tough slog so far. I have felt a little disappointed after reading about how energetic and non-hungry everyone else feels while on the diet, because I feel like I haven\u2019t eaten in a week. The hunger is so intense at times that I can\u2019t take my mind off of it. I have also had headaches, and have felt extremely weak after exercise (walking 2-3) miles.<\/p>\n
On a more positive note, I have not felt fatigued during the day past Day 2, which I have always struggled with, and I have had an easier time falling asleep at night than in any point in recent memory. I have stuck with the detox this far, and I\u2019ve found satisfaction in enduring constant, intense hunger pangs, but it\u2019s been extremely psychologically and physically challenging.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m in my twenties, pretty athletic, and I have a fairly muscular build \u2013 with a little bit of a belly. I don\u2019t know how much of the hunger pangs are due to physiological needs (i.e. genuine hunger), and how much is due to the psychological trauma I\u2019m inflicting upon myself \u2013 I eat pretty well, but I love food!<\/p>\n
I have tried other detox methods, and briefly studied nutrition, but this is just amateur advice. To add my two cents to a couple questions posed here:<\/p>\n
CRAMPS: Cut back on the tea. It doesn\u2019t take much Senna, the active laxative ingredient, to do it\u2019s job. Try steeping the bag for two minutes, and adjust with 30-second increments until you experience a laxative effect without prolonged discomfort.<\/p>\n
WAITING FOR A BM: Use Senna (\u201dSmooth Move\u201d) tea, or the salt water flush! It\u2019s not a detox if you\u2019re not expelling these impurities \u2013 daily \u2013 this is critically important!!!<\/p>\n
WATER: Drink as much as you\u2019d like\/you can. This will flush everything out, keep you hydrated (food contains water, too), and help with hunger.<\/p>\n
PEEING: I\u2019ve been peeing all the time, and it often has a funny smell. I\u2019ve read elsewhere that this is normal \u2013 and it makes sense.<\/p>\n
MEDS\/VITAMINS: To my knowledge, one should suspend over-the-counter supplements, vitamins, and meds while on the cleanse. If you\u2019re on prescription meds or have a health condition, you should REALLY consult with your doctor beforehand. Probably a good idea regardless.<\/p>\n
HEADACHES: I\u2019ve had them almost every day, but they\u2019ve become less severe, and more infrequent. Staying properly hydrated has helped.<\/p>\n
Good luck everyone!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
