    eat in a deficit and work out ...you will lose weight..

    Fad diets only lead to temp weight loss followed by gain back..

    Im not understanding what you're excited about. Drinking lemon juice, cayenne, maple syrup and water for 10 days is not exciting and frankly, its disgusting (I've tried the concoction!) Oh and that smooth move tea? Yeah.

    Temporary changes won't get ya permanent results.

    I'll stick with my 1950 calories of awesome, regular food all day long, and continue to lose the fat and watch my metabolism soar. Every time I see a post about this Master Cleanse (seriously? want a good cleanse, schedule a colonoscopy! :tongue: ) I think it sounds like a diet of pure torture.

    I think what you are referring to is the medical procedure called vacumoscopy. Where they attach an industrial size vacuum cleaner to your a#$ and turn it on high for thirty minutes...

    works every time...

    I think they may be referring to this nasty stuff they give you to drink before the colonoscopy. It has you on the toilet for the entire night before. Had one a few years ago, was not fun.

    I tried the Master Cleanse. Did it for 8 days. I put on a massive amount of weight after I finished this "cleanse". Almost 11 lbs. Right after I finished doing it, I'd lost about 6 pounds but at a huge cost. All I could ever think of was solid food (I was even dreaming about it at night, my tongue went bald, I blew a whole months grocery money on the Grade B maple syrup which is expensive as hell, I had severe hand pain because of the constant lemon juicing (I didn't have a juicer), I was close to blacking out all the time and I was peeing every half an hour.
    Don't do it. Waste of money and waste of time and ultimately no effect. This was 3 yrs back. My first and only cleanse. Since then, I haven't done any cleanses of any sort because I believe my body can cleanse itself just fine.
    Also, you do know about the salt water flush that you're supposed to everyday right? That is most horrible thing I have ever done to my body!

    This on both accounts. hahaha

    I am not going to say don't do it. I think you may just need to experience this for yourself. I am done with all the fads. Have lost it fast, Cabbage Soup Diet, Atkins, 10day cleanse. I even took some crazy drops after my last baby. WOW - Lost the weight like crazy and lost my hair too.

    Just don't be afraid to discontinue the cleanse if you aren't feeling well. I had headaches and crazy sleep patterns when I tried it. Gave up after the fifth day. I will say, my bowels never felt better. But you can get that in much better ways. LOL - act like you are getting a colonoscomy the following day - I guarantee you wont feel more empty after drinking a bottle a laxative than any other time.

    Good luck with whatever you choose.

    I am just trying to get toxins out of my body, I am not looking for much change or for a permanent change.

    I don't plan on doing this for a long period of time. 10 days is not long. No, my doctor has been very helpful through out my life and I think that it's a good idea to listen to his recommendations.

    I appreciate everyone's concern but, I don't appreciate how some of you are coming across. I am a very friendly person willing to listen and hear people out but, I am just looking for support and motivation. Sorry if this comes across as rude.

    I did this cleanse once. I puked cayenne pepper lemonade all over my car and myself on the way to work on day 4 or 5. It was epic.

    One thing you will find on MFP is that the people that have been here the longest tend to be successful. And no successful person will support you doing something unnecessary and potentially damaging. I am sure you will find one or two that will lie to you and tell you this is a great idea. There are no toxins in your body that this cleanse will rid you of.

    The only thing you got out of your body lately is your beautiful baby.

    You don't need to cleanse. You need to be alert at 3am in the morning if needed. I'd be angry, hungry and grumpy like that. Please rethink it. There are some awesome people who already posted up in here, listen to them. There is another way. .. really, I promise.

    I know a lot of people say cleanses are worthless, not worth your time, and/or just a fad, but it worked for me. I had been eating awfully for as long as I can remember, so when I decided to go on a diet, I didn't want to just jump into it. I figured a cleanse was my best bet to kick start a diet. And I was right! I took an all natural, vegetable based pill 4x a day for 10 days while eating healthy foods! I lost 9 lbs, 3.5 inches, and felt so light and rejuvenated! I'm so glad I did it regardless of what people say. Best of luck!

    Just out of curiosity...why is taking a vegetable based pill better than just eating vegetables?

    If eating healthy foods is a cleanse then I have been cleansing my whole life. Holy **** no one told me!

    I know the OP is going to do this regardless, but to anyone who is lurking and thinking about doing this: Please don't. The people who do this put all the weight back on and more. They are the ones who are still overweight and complaining about how they've "tried everything". Go with patience, moderate diet, and exercise instead. It works, I promise. And you don't even have to send me any money.
