I was going to go 21 days but will stop at 14.
I will begin my juice fast on thursday
I felt really good throughout most of the fast after day 5.
My tongue is still white but the edges are pink and smooth - it this the beginnings of it turning pink? I cannot believe how toxic I am, I thought for sure it would be pink by now!
I was my old self with boundless energy. Now I feel weak. I think that my body needs nutrients and since the Master-Cleanse is really a mono juice fast, I'm going to incorporate fruit and green juices instead. I will do the SWF (Salt-Water-Flush) maybe every 2 days and in between do P&B shakes. What do you think??
PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT THE ABOVE?!!
I plan to go 10 days on the juice which will bring my total fast time to 24-25 days. Or I may just go 20. Will see what my body wants since I have to return to marathon training ASAP!!!
My stomach is now concave (above the belly button) - it looks kinda gross actually - too skinny! But I'm glad I'm doing the fast cuz now I know that to get rid of my little pot belly (below the belly button) I'm going to have to do lipo, unless of course it's just my physiology. My celulite is almost all gone.
I am, 5'8" 120lbs
down from 131
It will be interesting to see how and when I gain the weight back..
I APPRECIATE EVERYONE WHO TAKES THIM TO ANSWER NEWBIES QUESTIONS LIKE MY OWN!!!
happy mc'ing

This is a reply to # 236,616Each one has to do what he or she feel is best. That is why I cannot advise much except to keep the Master-Cleanse according to the plan as much as possible.

This is a reply to # 236,616This is pretty standard detox crisis stuff. Fast through when you are low like this, and you will bounce back to a nice, clear, clean high again soon! Drink extra water! If you are weak and want to continue on the MC, you can try adding 1 T. BLACKSTRAP molasses, which is what the Master-Cleanse recommends for diabetics. During my very long fast last summer I often pulled this trick with amazing results--increased energy almost instantly.
If this fails and you still want to continue fasting, JUICES are absolutely the way to go! When I switched from Master-Cleanse to juice on day 48 last year, continuing to day 60--UNBELIEVABLE difference in energy level! The Master-Cleanse carried me beautifully to day 45, but it was clear I needed extra support and my excellent naturopath/nutritionist who supervises my long fasts had me go to juices--fruits in the am when we are naturally cleansing, and veggies in the pm when we are rebuilding. YUMMMMMM! Do they ever taste good, and feel good!
Whatever you decide, DO NOT break on a low! Fast through until you are well again before breaking any fast.
Why such a long fast? If you are this thin, perhaps you should consider doing shorter fasts with a rebuilding cleansing diet between. However, I have heard of many cases of thinner people fasting, and the weight comes right back to where you want it in short order.
In any case, DO keep that colon April Fresh every day you fast, to help the body remove toxins quickly. On long fasts I often alternate an enema for the swf, which can be harsh long term.
Hope this helps--fast on and be well!
Best,
Somer

I agree with Somer. You are going through a cycle of cleansing, and you most certainly do not stop on a low, so by Thursday you will have probably have come back up. If you want to really see the improvement of your tongue, you can look up the different areas on it to see what organs they correspond with, and then you will have an idea of what parts of the body are detoxing. Also, get a tongue scraper and you can actually see the patterns of the detox going on a lot easier. Ideally you want your whole tongue to go pink. Molasses is a great alternative to revive your energy too!

This is a reply to # 236,627I picked mine up at a health food store. If you put tongue scraper in google search engine, it brings up places online to purchase and also some info on them. I am new to this board and want to compliment you on how you support so many people and are great at it. My husband and I are starting the cleanse again, first time this year. Got him to do it once before for 10 days, this time going for 12, only stopping there because a 4th of July party we promised to be at. The longest I have done this for is 14 days. I love it, as it gets me up early after a while with no alarm clock! What are the rebuilding diets you mention to others? Is there a website I can look that up on?
Thanks! TM in PHX- How about the tongue map? Thehaha

This is a reply to # 236,638My eyes are dry and bloodshot- very cloudy and almost yellow. Sometimes I have to blink a few times to see clearly. This has just been happening today (the color change... though the blinking happened a bit earlier in the cleanse). There is alot of dust around right now- my house is being torn up... This could be the cause, but just incase-- is this any sort of usual symptom- anything to be worried about???
I was thinking maybe I should do a Liver Flush at the end of the fast if they aren't better,but I haven't done any other cleanses besides the Master-Cleanse yet.

This is a reply to # 236,631Thanks for your reply! Is there a site that tells you how to decipher your detox by looking at your tongue?? That would be really interesting! (Tongue fur itself is very interesting!)
I do long fasts with the supevision of my excellent naturopath/nutritionist, who has me do a pre-cleanse (I ate this for 30 days prior to my 60 day fast last summer), and a rebuilding diet after.
Pre-cleanse
Big bowl of fresh fruit with natural (no sugar, good culture) yogurt, whizzed as a smoothie if you like
Big salad dressed with good oil like flax or olive, fresh lemon juice, garlic, cayenne
All the homemade vegetarian soup you want, same soup you break with, for dinner
Drink all the FRESH juices you like during this diet, fruits in the am, veggies in the pm
Lots of water!
Rebuilding:
Same as above, gradually adding clean protein (I eat fresh fish and chicken breast), small amounts of whole grains, beans, nuts, seeds and good oil
I ate this way for about six months after my big cleanse last summer. You continue to cleanse gently, and keep that light, clean feeling going!
How nice you can do this with a partner! It's always just me... and my lemonade! (Glug, glug) Thank goodness for this forum--I pretty much lived here last summer, and saw a lot of action!
Best to you,

This is a reply to # 236,660Maybe you can ask your nutrionist if they have any more info for you on that subject. Thank you for the diet info.
One the partner front, here is a great formula that I learned when I was 19. I have been through many great boyfriends with this, and eventually found a great guy to marry when I was 29. I never wanted to get married, so I would never have to get divorced. He felt the same way, so we got married.
Here it is:
Write down everything you want in a guy, and it all has to be positive; He has a great sense of humor, he's funny, great body, 5'10-6'ft, takes care of himself, nutritionally sound, likes to go dancing, loves jazz music, and so on...be very specific, try not to generalize. Write it like you don't know him, so you can't say stuff like he respects me (you need to respect yourself), he loves me (you need to love yourself), anything with you in it doesn't work. You haven't met him yet, he doesn't even know you. After you have it written out, sleep with it under your pillow for up to three days. Then put it away in a book that has integrity for you and forget about it. Focus on your hobbies, things you love to do and go do them. Enjoy yourself! If you see a guy that you really feel like you want to talkl to, go talk to him. This is how I have met most of my really great guys, and I started the conversation. If you are not ready to met him, he won't show, no matter how many times you write your list over. It takes some believing in yourself, but you seem to already have that one down a bit. This is a recipe for miracles to show up. Have fun with it!

I think my low time is also from the trouble I'm having inmy relationship which is on the rocks...AGAIN!
I have already added the molases and hate to say it but eat a few tsp. on thier own when making the lemonaid!
YIKES
I am sitting here, had my SWF, it's 10:20.
I'm drinking water but my stomach is growling!!!
I will pull through to day20 or longer - but I'm just not used to feeling this weak. Will continuing with a juice fast hinder progress in terms of my tongue, of will it remain white until I detox with juice?
That tongue map sounds interesting.....where can I find it?
THANX ALL!!! ;o*- Tongue Map

This is a reply to # 236,635Your tongue will clear up when your organs have cleaned out. AS for the juice fasting, if you are emotionally stressed out, that puts extra pressure on your body, so you might want to make the transition to a juice fast to support your body more. Try reading "A Return to Love" by Marianne Willamson for your emotional support, or "Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus" by Robert Grey. Go out and have some fun with life.
