Master Cleanse Forum - Master Cleanser Lemonade Diet

Question, has anybody done the MC with some days water only? Just curious to know what kind of results would come from this. Let me add that I am not doing this for weight loss. I'm 6' 175 (male) when I started so I really didn't need to loose any weight, but I like to fast and do the MC from time to time for health and spiritual reasons.

Well I started thinking of doing alternate day fasting (I have done this with juice before) but now I am on a straight water fast and on the 5th day. You will lose weight, but it will be more fat than muscle as soon as you go into ketosis, and it is deeply cleansing. It is not as hard as I thought it would be. Now, I do want to get my weight back down to 118 or so, so a few more days will probably get me there, but I am loving the cleansing effects. Check out youtube and the internet for water fasting. It is intense. On a number of fasting websites, it is said that 10 days of water fasting is like 30 days of juice fasting. Not sure if that is true, but I feel great and not really hungry.

I made it till 5 pm today before my first lemonade and only had two all day. Feel pretty satisfied really. I was getting pretty weak feeling before that first one tho. I may try to go longer, maybe 36 hours or longer next time. I did feel like the cleansing was increased and my gut started growling, but I didn't feel hungry.

The last week or two of my fasts are generally water only.

I purchase the gallon size Grade B maple syrup and it will not last the whole 40 days.

The earliest I've actually started the water portion of a fast was after day 12 of a 40 day fasting resulting in 28 days of water only.
