Master Cleanse Forum - Master Cleanser Lemonade Diet

So excited to be here again after a few years pause - I've been itching to do a cleanse for so long!

I recently got married and then pregnant...boy, I didn't know just how much my life would be affected by that! Among the joys of marriage/motherhood, I dreadfully missed being able to do a cleanse! Detoxing and breastfeeding just don't mix! However, I just weaned the little one a few days ago, so here I am!

I started my ease-in yesterday afternoon and it was pretty good. I didn't do it the traditional way, in fact, I had a hearty breakfast and some snacks, then I just fasted for the rest of the day. Today will be my first actual drinking of the lemonade. I plan to go for 10 days and if that goes well, another round of 10 days. My goal is to get to 200 or just below to compensate for the inevitable weight gain when I stop.

I found that this board helped me so much when I did the cleanse before and I'm hoping it will help again. This time, I'm not a single girl in an apartment all by herself...but by God's grace I'll get through!

On my 3rd serving of lemonade...feel waaaaay better! And I'm loving how clear my mind feels! I noticed that this morning - plus the fact that my stocking are fitting me much better than yesterday lol (they were running a marathon down my thighs all day...today they are staying up with much less help )

Looking good/feeling good! I have to remember to drink more water though...I was reading my last experience and it appears that's what really helped flush my system/drop pounds.

I was able to locate my scale and I'm currently 218.4...I'm truly hoping I can shed 15 by the time I'm finished and be down to 203 (or...even 200lbs! O joy!)

Hey girl blessed!

Well done on starting and not giving in at work. That's a good tip about drinking more water - that's where I went wrong last week. I had to travel so didn't drink anything on one day then it was all downhill from then.

I'm restarting on Sunday with Dreamchasing

Hey, girl! Welcome to the cleanse, again! Good job for staying on track when the time got tough. I find that once I start fantasizing stopping, for any reason, it's hard to correct myself. I hope that joining this forum will prove itself helpful to me during this (sometimes difficult!) cleanse.

I'm on day 2! Hang in there with me!

Day 3

Its a long story, but I ended up having to break my fast a little bit...just a few crackers and a coupe sugary drinks...nothing too harmful! I'm back on track today however...only problem this time is that I haven't done the smooth move tea yet...and I'm wondering if there's a swf alternative?Because there is NO WAY that I can stomach that nastiness!

This morning I slipped on a pair of stretch jeans and they felt better then when I first even bought them! Sometime I just want to give up and eat (those craving can be beastly) but when I start walking or move somehow and feel that I'm getting slimmer...cravings go away lol!

Girlblessed,
A little slip up is okay. Just be careful with it because eating turns our digestive system back on and the cravings may be a little harder to fight. But hang in there and stay on track because the MC is a tried and true method! Drinking plenty of water is key to feeling well, I've noticed. And I find that by drinking tea gives me a boost. Peppermint is really good for the brain, I've read and so it helps on those fuzzy days!

And I know exactly what you mean by walking around and feeling thinner! I just did that before I got on the computer. I was walking around (I don't have school today, so I'm resting) going ho hum and then noticing how my legs on my jeans are baggy. I normally don't wear jeans when I'm home alone but I have them on right now just to inspire me! And, I don't know, I just look different in front of the mirror on day 3 and I have a good attitude about what awaits me in this cleanse.

Reinigen,

Awesome feeling, isn't it!! It inspires me to know that even though the cravings can be hard to fight (I asked my hubby to eat his food so I can watch and enjoy lol #FoodPorn) the feeling of shed weight feels great! Keep it up my dear! And tea definitely helps

Day 5
Halfway there baby!

Been watching a bunch of videos on the benefits of straight water fasting and now I'm wondering if I can continue for 5 more days on a water fast. Soooo tempted but I say that now lol. I remember years ago I tried to do it and I felt so out of it-didn't even make it a full day and I'm accustomed to fasting! That bar none is the toughest fast of all (in my opinion).

We shall see. As for me, when I weighed myself last night, I was shocked to see the scale said 210! It's been almost 2 years since I've seen that on a scale (that's I've stepped on anyways lol) but, my stomach isn't flat like it normally is at this time. In fact, I'm rather bloated.

To be honest, I haven't taken the smooth move tea this time, I just took regular laxatives, so I think I'll pick up some Yogi Get Regular today (I heard it's nicer in taste than Smooth Move)

Also I've been licking baby food that has dropped on my hand...and I sipped some of my son's milk to see if it was too hot. Ever since my stomach felt completely bloated. I shan't be doin' that again!! Lol

Actually my son is sleeping now so I'm gonna sneak out and get some tea and more water. And I'll weigh myself real quick too!
