A reader wanted to know about losing weight, and dealing with cravings while doing the master cleanse…<\/p>\n
Hi all,<\/p>\n
I\u2019m wanting to start this diet ASAP. I\u2019m at an all time high (5’6 and weigh 193 lbs\u2026WAY TOO MUCH!) and for the past 5 years or so, I can\u2019t stop eating junk with my 65 \u2013 70 hour work week schedule. It\u2019s like I live to eat that way! I\u2019ll be 30 in November & really want to change my life & the way I treat my body. I hope to start Thursday or Friday so that my worst \u201cdetox\u201d symptoms fall on the weekend.<\/p>\n
My hope is not only some weight loss, but to be RID of the cravings for junk & caffeine so that I can get to my goal weight of 140-150 by the end of November. Does anyone have any tips on what I can do to maximize my results? Should I do 2 cleanses a few weeks apart???<\/p>\n
Thanks so much & God bless!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Hello,<\/p>\n
I understand what you’re going through with junk food cravings, and wanting to lose some weight.<\/p>\n
If you use the search box on the left hand side of this blog, you’ll find lots of posts that deal with losing weight. Also make sure to read the comments because 1000’s of readers in your exact situation have shared some magnificent tips over the years.<\/p>\n
About junk food cravings<\/strong>:<\/p>\n
A big advantage that the Master Cleanse has over other cleanses, is that it satisfies both sweet and salty cravings thanks to the salt water flush and the maple syrup used in the lemonade.<\/p>\n
Will you still feel a little craving pang when you walk by the break room vending machine? Probably, but it’s not as bad as most people think.<\/p>\n
You also mentioned that you’re trying to kick caffeine cravings.<\/p>\n
If you’re used to getting your caffeine fix from a hot beverage like coffee, switch to caffeine free herbal tea.<\/p>\n
If you’re used to getting your caffeine fix from a cold beverage like soda, switch to plain carbonated water. This way you can enjoy a fizzy beverage without caffeine, or any other unhealthy ingredients.<\/p>\n
Good luck, and please use the comment section to keep us posted!<\/p>\n
