    Dizzy Master Cleans Until My Jeans Fit

    None of my pants fit and my self esteem is really low because I have gained 25 pounds in the past 6 months

    Also, possibly due to medication, I am having a LOT of intestinal and bowel problems. I used to be a vegetarian and I am planning to go back to that when I finish the cleans.

    Soo.. I decided I am starting the Master Cleans (sp?) until my pants fit again.

    I will post a before pic and some updates on my progress. I have no will power so this should be interesting.

    It would take less will power to simply eat clean, and you'd still lose the weight...

    But I also want to do a liquid diet because I want to flush my system from drugs from a surgery a few months ago... and I am thinking of going raw afterwards.

    I love the master cleanse!!!

    I did it a few years ago and I had a GREAT experience with it.

    I was dating a doctor at the time and we did it together, which made it way easier.

    We also went up north camping for ten days which also made it easier. Less temptation.

    Honestly, after the third day, you really don't crave food that much. Your sense of smell will become extremely heightened and I swear I could smell what each individual campsite was cooking every night. That was tough.

    Word of caution.....
    On maybe my fifth or six day of doing the epsom salt water flushes, I did not have a bowel movement. Nothing came out. NOTHING. I just thought maybe something went wrong and my body absorbed it. didn't think much about it.
    Then we went hiking later in the afternoon.

    All of a sudden, I had this incredible urge to go to the bathroom. In the middle of the freaking sand dunes in northern Michigan. I basically had to go behind a dune(which is not saying much for cover) and do my business.

    I don't want to gross you out too much, but lets just say my intestines became very clean that night.

    I lost weight, and I had dramatic reduction of cravings afterwords. That was my heaviest point and I never got that heavy again. It was also a very spiritual experience. Pm me if you want to know more.

    Good luck!!

    Cool ^^ Thanks for sharing!

    How long were you on the cleans and how did you know when to stop?

    I think I did it for only nine or ten days and I stopped by doing a raw diet for a day, and then started adding cooked foods.

    go on youtube and check out this guy that does it for like 50 days. You can actually see him losing massive amounts of weight every day. Its really interesting.

    I think if you want to flush your system you should do at least a week. Then start back eating as clean as possible. I also found it helpful exercise every day. Mild cardio like hiking and stuff.

    then if you want to maintain a really healthy gut (which I think is really a key to staying slim) go to colonix.com

    I've always wanted to do the master cleanse, but never had the courage to jump in and just do it.

    PMC: Were you doing the epsom salt flushes along with the Master Cleanse? Are you drinking the Espom or using it up the backside *pardon me for the frankness*

    I was drinking the epsom salt in like a liter of water. I would chug it in about 30 minutes. I was really hard and disgusting. You basically have to just drink it as fast as possible to get it down without gagging. It was the hardest part of the cleanse, but I think it kills your appetite too. it helps if the water is warm- room temperature

    You body cannot absorb salt water, and the epsom salts work like little scrub brushes to loosen the old gunk and mucus off of your intestinal tract. makes you feel very clean.

    then, seriously try the colonix too. I use the fiber every day and wouldn't want to live without it.

    Oh, I LOVE the master cleanse!! I have done three before and will probably do another after the next round of lipo I am going to have (I like to try to do them bi-anually).

    PostmodernCinderella, kudos to you for making it thru the saltwater flush every day. I couldn't handle it and barfed it up, I had to do the sienna tea twice a day instead. That saltwater is so raunchy!! The book (which anyone who is considering doing this MUST MUST have - http://www.amazon.com/Master-Cleanse.../dp/0963926209 but you can probs get it at any whole foods store if you're impatient) says that's ok but I really want to try and do the SWF next time, I think it cleans you out better.

    cinnamonkisses, if you need a nudge, you should read the messageboard on this site - http://therawfoodsite.com/mastercleanse.htm . I always read it to get amped up before I do one of mine. Good luck and let us know how it goes!

    This thread is so inspiring! My mom and I half-heartedly did the MC last year but didn't stick to it ... I felt great the whole time and wish I would have stuck it out! Maybe we should all try to get synced up and start one together for support??

    Hoping it goes well for you! I did try it seriously but started getting bad rashes and my asthma acted up.
    I am vegan and do eat mostly raw foods but I'd love to do it! I use the "Zand" herbal cleanse a couple of times a year with very good results and's it's easy.But the MC is the gold-standard if you can get it to work for you!
    Be sure to drink a lot of water and good luck!

    So what made you try using Epsom salts instead of the sea salt that you're supposed to use??

    I remember hearing that epsom salt may be milder than sea salt and ok to use, but don't quote me on that.

    I just do exactly what the book tells me, with no modifications. Like a little lemon robot. Beep bop burp.

    I am big fan of colonix........ not too too often though. And not over done.
    Gotta be careful with this stuff as it can weaken your immune system a bit (during the process)

    Remember ladies to use a good probiotic in conjuction with any big cleanse. Multi-flora (aka acidophilous and bifidis) found in the refridgerator of the vitamin section at the health food store. It is the healthy bacteria found in your digestive system and is essential to proper digestive function. When you do detox/cleansing flushes you often lose a lot of healthy flora which will make you more suseptable to infections and bloating.

    This thread is inspiring. I very much want to lose 20-25 lbs...now you've all got me wanting to do it via Master Cleanse. A few weeks of diarrhea is a small price to pay for getting my self-confidence and health back!

    ^Well, if you'd like, you can start with me. I'll be starting it March 16. That should give anyone who is interested more than enough time to get all the supplies needed.

    Somewhat on the same line of thinking. Has anyone tried Alli? I've heard that you have to have time to spend at least two weeks with bathroom access.

    From what I've been learning, you should do it at least 10 days. Some people can go up until 42 days or something like that. I think I'll pace myself and see how I feel after 10 days. If I feel I can keep going, I will..

    I've never used a colonic before. Doubt I ever will. They mostly just contain laxatives. So, you're really not 'detoxing' anything. Also, read those reviews and consider them. If alot of people aren't having good results, I figure I'll probably be alot like them...so I don't try it either.
