The Master Cleanse Diet - Ever Try It?

[TennisGirl80]

I've been on my "new way of life" since Jan 07 and have lost about 75 pounds. I try eating "clean" but its hard, and usually fall way short, and have myself either a canned soup or frozen meal (healthy choice or something) most days. I want to try something that will give me body a "new start" and was hoping this will do it. Any thoughts??

Hi,

I have tried Master Cleanse twice, but not for the full 10 days. The first time, I lasted 8 days, and the second, I just did a short 5 day cleanse.

I was surprised at how much better I felt after the 8 day cleanse. My skin was less puffy, and I got rid of some unhealthy cravings. A lot of people commented on how much better I looked. I didn't notice as much of a difference when I did the 5 day cleanse.

It is really difficult to stick to the first few days, and I found that I had better luck if I started on the weekend, when I could just be lazy and focus on myself for the first couple days. During that time, I read lots of books and blogs about the cleanse to keep me inspired. To be honest, I'm not 100% confident in the science behind some of the reasoning used by cleanse enthusiasts, but it did work for me.

I hope that helps!
