Master Cleanse Forum - Master Cleanser Lemonade Diet

I am starting my first day today...AGAIN! This is my 3rd try since 7/31/06. I am now shooting for 20 days. I am going to Vegas on 8/25 and want to look better in my shorts and skirts. I do good during the day (even though my job brings in free lunch like every other day). However, when I get home. I get comfortable or bored and eat, even after I exercise which I do everyday. It's not because I am hungry, it b/c my mind reads that I am empty and it is used to my stomach being full. I am having a mental battle when it come to this fast. I KNOW I can do this. What do you do or think to get over the urges to eat during this fast? Is 4 servings of MC too little? (I think so, I am going to go for 6 today). What are tips to get through thte first 3 days. I read on someone's diary that the first 3 days are the hardest and after that it is much easier.
Thank you in advance for your help!

no worries~focus on the benefits of the MC instead of the drawbacks!! this is going to work & you will do it!
best wishes.

Thank you eriksmoonshine! I do know that I will get it, its so frustrating not being able to start off. I will get it though. How well has the MC worked for you?

I have done it 3 times - twice for 10 days and right now I'm at 28 days of a 40 day fast.

I am kind to myself when fasting -- in the begining I allow myself as many glasses of the mix as I want. I ususally end up drinking 3 sports bottles of mix ( 9 glasses) and that ends up going to less and less as time passes.. now I drink around 6 glasses a day sometimes less.

Also --having a cup of hot peppermint tea helps me to "feel" like I am having something "more" than just the lemonade--if all else fails I eat a half of a lemon -- make sure its organic and washed.

Openheart173, that is some good advoce too. I think I will use allowing myself to drink as much as I can as long as I am tempted to eat. Do you exercise everyday? How well has the MC worked for you so far with this being the 3rd time? I wish I can see 1 day and maybe I can move on to 28 and 40. Congrats to you on that!
