Coming to an end

Today is day 9 of the Master Cleanse and I am doing okay.  This being my third time doing the cleanse I can honestly say it was a lot easier than the first two because I knew what to expect and how I would feel.  I also did this to CLEANSE not to lose weight.  I find the people who are doing it to lose weight will have a much harder time with this because they still have an attachment to food.

Day 3 and already a flatter tummy

Not gonna lie, avoiding food was hard.  Since I was constantly around people I would ask if I could smell their food and savor the smells (everyone let me because they felt bad).  I watched things that were about food like Ratatouille; and it got me through day 4.  I also was on Instagram 24/7 liking peoples food pics (apologies to all the random people’s profiles I looked at and liked all their food pics).

Weighed myself this morning and I am 142 pounds, about a 10 pound weight difference from when I started (granted most of that weight was from leftovers in my colon and water weight, lol).  My stomach is so flat right now and I feel thin.  At first I was gonna do 14 days, but I do not want to lose anymore weight so my last day will be tomorrow.

Day 8 and getting some collarbone action

I cannot wait for day 11 because i get to drink ORANGE JUICE!  It is going to be so amazing!  I already have a list of all the foods I want to try to cook.  Look forward to some beautiful culinary masterpieces!

The Master Cleanse

A new year, a new me.  I have decided to attempt the Master Cleanse for the third time.  If you are not familiar with the Master cleanse let me fill you in.  No solid food for a minimum of 10 days (some people have known to go for 30 days).

The last time I did this was back in 2008 so I feel like this is long overdue. A lot of people do the cleanse to lose weight I am doing this to cleanse my mind, body, and soul.  I am finally somewhat on track with no distractions.  After moving, being unemployed, running low on funds, and going through an emotional rollercoaster, I NEED THIS.

The cleanse consists of drinking a home-made Lemonade, salt water, and a Laxative Tea.  You make the lemonade yourself with freshly squeezed organic lemons, cayenne pepper (the spice will help to curb food cravings), and Organic Grade B Maple Syrup.  You can also drink peppermint tea and as much water as you can hold down :)

I am going for 14 days (the last two times I only did 10 days).  Today is day two of my cleanse and so far I am doing okay.  When I woke up this morning I was craving a fruit smoothie, veggie pizza, and a fruit salad. All I need to remember is temptation is easy but will power shows strength.  Stay tuned and wish me luck!
