We are sorry to tell you all that we are breaking our cleanse :-( We have been invited out of town for Father's Day weekend, and we will not be able to maintain the cleanse while we are away. We are both very disappointed that we haven't reached day 10 yet and have decided to break our cleanse prematurely.
This is our second Master Cleanse. The first one we went for 5 days, and this one we are breaking after 6 days. It had become obvious to me over the passed few days that long-term cleanses were something you have to "condition" yourself for, and to strive for 40 days when we hadn't even successfully completed a 10 day cleanse was setting our sights WAY too high.
But we take comfort in the fact that the two cleanses have helped us tremendously. Both of us have kicked our nasty and extremely unhealthy smoking habit, and I am sure our bodies are much better off after experiencing several days of heavy detox between the two cleanses. Our skin looks great, we have both lost pounds, as well as inches. We have both passed massive amounts of mucous.
We plan to undertake another cleanse in September. We are hoping to actually COMPLETE our up coming cleanse, reaching the 10 day mark. Between now and then we have the perfect opprotunity to form healthy eating habits. We plan to break our cleanse the safe way, by the book, and begin to eat the recommended foods in the "detox diet". We will definately continue to drink the lemonade for breakfast everyday, as the book suggests. We may do a juice fast between now and then as well.
We will continue to do the body brushing. It feels so wonderful, and really does become a ritual.
In a few weeks we plan to do a Liver Flush, after our eliminations are back to normal and everything is working properly.
The support and advice we've recieved on the forum from our fellow fasters cannot go unmentioned! So here's a sincere and heartfelt THANK YOU :-) to Zoe, cayennequeen, kittyglitter, boobookittycat, commonscents, life-n-light, PiciloLepre, and many more that I cannot recall off the top of my head. You are all truly amazing people and we are so greatful to have been able to share this experience with you! Good luck to you all for the remainder of you cleanse! Stay strong and keep on keepin' on!!!
Our best reguards,
Cori and Debbie

You did great. You proved to yourself that you do have what it takes to change your life for the better. Glad to hear of the many benefits and especially that you will be making body brushing a habit...ggg
You can keep the cleansing going if you wish by fasting one day a week. That really helped me after my first long cleanse. It keeps you in the mindset. I wish you much luck on your healing path and dont forget to come post how things are going for you and mom!
You will be missed but we know you will be back...ggg
Many blessings to you both and your family,
Zoe

Thank you all for all of the emotional support and encouraging words you have given us throughout our cleanse. I have to second what my nature food grocer said about the Master Cleanse, "It's a beautiful thing!". In todays society you are hardpressed to find anyone who can see far enough beyond their own little world to offer advice and support, let alone even care about your stuggles. The people here on curezone go above and beyond to help people and truly are gifts from God!!! Bless you all and good luck to all of you on your cleanses!!!
Cori and Debbie :-)

Thank you cayennequeen!!! You have remained a part of my thoughts and prayers as well!!! Actually, all of you have! I've become a silent observer of the forum and I am so proud of all of you for hanging in there!!!
And you're right...it's refreshing to know that there are still some honest and caring people in this crazy world we live in!!! And I'm so glad we have a place to come to and communicate. After all, birds of a feather flock together, right :-)
Good luck with the remainder of your cleanse! I will be praying for you all!!!
Cori
