I'm actually doing this, and feeling good too!
It's day 4 of my first MC, and with every day that passes I am more happy to be doing it. As much as cleansing my body physically, I feel like I am gaining an emotional and psychological victory over my own weaknesses. It's unnerving what a hold bad food has on my mind! Even though I generally consider myself to have a healthy diet ( thanks to a health -conscious wife and her awesome meals), I really felt myself wanting pure junk those first couple of days.
Thankfully, I haven't had to deal with a lot of the more severe pains that some of my fellow Master Cleansers experience. The biggest blow so far has been having my good friend stop the cleanse today. In one way, it has encouraged me to press on and finish no matter what, but it's also discouraging to have the person I was talking to and gaining support from about the MC no longer doing it.
Anyway, it's been an encouragement to read the posts on this forum. It has really helped me want to stick to it when I ask "Why am I doing this?" It has also helped me deal with very negative comments from close friends, who call the MC "snake oil," and act as if I'm doing something ridiculous ( if not harmful). So thanks everyone!
