HI, if you have not read the book already, that is where to start. Good luck!

Hi I am 42 and also never really watched what I ate. My best friend and I are starting this Monday 3/29. It will be difficult but we will call each other as support. I told her that when we feel week to just think ~ It is only ten days that may add ten or more years to our lives.
I explained this cleanse to my husband to also gain his support. Good luck!

Hello mom of nine.
I have done this cleanse about 6 times and find i drop about one lb per day depending on how over weight i am. I do this Mastercleanse for health, and secound to drop lbs. My longest cleanse was 10 days.
For me staying on the cleanse works best when i feel my health is at its worst. I try to plan my cleanse over a time when i dont have to do too much or travel. I also buy all the maple syrup lemons and spring water ahead so i dont run out. The cayenne pepper i always have a supply in my spice rack. I premix a days worth of 8 oz glasses of lemonade first thing in the AM. I do the salt water flush the first day and after that i use a laxative tea , 1cup before bed and 1 cup when i get out of bed. I am 58 yrs old and i am retired so it is easier i guess then if i was working hard all day like i used to. I do all the cooking and shopping for my wife and oldest son and i find for some reason i can still prepare very good meals while im fasting. I do have some trouble shopping at - say Trader Joes while on the fast, but if im mentally stong its ok.

I am on day 3 of my fast and hope to make 10 days at least.
My oldest daughter was very overweight( 100 lbs) and decided to finally diet , so she tried the mastercleanse 6 mos ago and she was able to go 5 days her first try. she dropped 10 or 12 lbs and from there she got on Atkins and in the 6 mos she has lost 60 more lbs. She is at 184 and wants to get to the 150s. So The Master Cleanse was a great jump start for her.
For me fasting is hard at times and i have to sometimes struggle not to give in. Praying helps for me as well as going for a walk. I think we are all so tied mentally to food in this society that we think in our minds it is tougher then it really is.

I hope this helps. opps time for another lemonade drink!
