Day 1-

Last I ate was 10am, I had two poptarts and some coke. As of tonight i've whipped up my first batch of the good juice. I'm mostly concerned at the moment how much money I'm going to have to blow on this damn canadian maple syrup

As far as taste goes, I really.. really like the cayenne pepper. I may even toss a little more into the next batch.

I'm attempting the cleanse.. hopefully for 10-14 days but I may falter. I'm pondering eating fried veges of the night for dinner but we'll see how I feel in 24hours. That's a bit beyonce, though I intend to keep up my workout regime.

My stomach and arse have gone terminal of late so I'm trying something a bit drastic.. and am hoping to drop 10-15 pounds

I'll keep y'all updated, i'm a little worried about getting to sleep feeling hungry, but lately i've slept so little with insomnia i'll assume i'll passout soon.

This maple syrup is fucking DELICIOUS though. I may water down the next batch a little too, I made 1.25 litres with two medium size lemons, (125ml, about 9 tablespoons) and equal amount of maple and about 1.5 teaspoons of cayenne.

I've also gathered me some sea-salt and will possibly attempt the salt flush tommorrow night or the night after. I really don't want to do it while I still have recently eaten food in my system.

edit: and Champers will hate me.. I haven't quit smoking.. i'll reaccess that after 3 days

Day 2-

Not so bad.. I didn't go to work today, but I don't think that's related to this. I just hate work.

Last night wasn't so bad, my stomach hardly made a noise all night and I'm sure I must have gotten to sleep at least before 1am without laying in bed dreaming about donuts.

Went down to the shops this morning and stocked up on a load of lemons and 2 more bottles of maple. At this stage I'm pondering buying a juicer..

I did wake up with a weird taste in my mouth though. and my sense of smell is becoming oddly acute for someone who smokes 20+ cigs a day.

I keep seeing tv ads for food and am slightly disgusted, I'd like to eat the stuff but i'm not feeling any desperate 'I must gorge ALL' urges.

My second batch of lemonade I decided to water down a bit more and add more cayenne. Last night's was way too sweet.

The pepper thing is so weird. It creates this sensation in your stomach that you've eaten.

Other than that it's all going quite well! I won't be satisfied that i'm 'into' this until Monday morning though..

Robbie! Hello there! I've not been on KR for 4 days and I'm AMAZED at the level of activity, I mean, clotty's davenport thread has reached 52 pages already??

I'm doing a master cleanse mid August myself, I have been eating WAY too much cheese and consuming way too much red wine on my days off and am feeling distinctly podgy of late.

Definitely invest in a juicer or, if you're on a budget, you can get a decent priced citrus squeezer. When you squeeze lemons by hand, you lose at lesat a good few tablespoons of juice and TBH, squeezing lemons manually gets to be a royal pain in the arse very quickly.

I've decided I'm coming off my Master Cleanse this Monday, it will only be 7 days but I've achieved the main objective as I can now effortlessly fit into those trousers (with room to spare!) when this time last week I couldn't even get the zip halfway up.

god damn you.

maybe I need to give it another shot..

I don't think I can keep up the amount of exercise i'm doing, it's really starting to fuck with my legs and knee's and stuff. I really think fasting is a healthier alternative to excessive exercise.

then again I was doing 45mins cardio a day on the days i was master cleansing.. plus I'd need a juicer this time!
