Re: please!!who has lost alot of weight on this cleansing?

I push the book mainly because I'm not a doctor and believe the Master-Cleanse to be radical.
One ,in my opinion, is taking serious chances by deviating from the Master-Cleanse formula and structure. There have been deaths from the Master-Cleanse and probably failures that we don't hear about . I would boldly guess that the failures are from changing the structure and formula of the MC to try to speed things up or skimp ,make it taste better or ...? If you are new to the MC following the book is the only intelligent approach. If you can't adhere to the rules put forth by Stanley, then don't expect great results. Once you have a few MCs under your belt then consider changing things to 'suit' your needs and desires if you wish. What ever floats your boat.

I am speaking primarily to new people...
I'm on a 45 and believe me I stick to it verbatim. Other than a bit more cayenne some times. Don't play with it! It is clockwork if not messed with.

I'm sure there are better ways(my Nickname is Detour because I'm always looking for a better solution or 'way'),yet the MC has a terrific track record.

I joke around a lot,yet very serious when it comes to this.

Honestly, if you want to lose weight the best way to do it is diet ,exercise and attitude. The MC is a great jumpstart. It not only drops some lbs,yet moreso proves to yourself your discipline potential. It cleans your slate ,so to speak, to pave the way to a new and better lifestyle. If you can do this you can do anything! You can pass on the second helping,you can quit eating meat, you can walk to the store instead of drive ,etc. Unless you have an ailment which some of you do,in that case my heart goes out to you. Actually, my heart goes out to all, otherwise I wouldn't be writing this!

Everyone here deserves credit for taking that first step to health. Everyone has
different reasons for being here. I am only speaking for myself and no expert.

I am on day 6 of 45 and would not have the confidence had I ever had ANY 'bad' experiences on my previous MCs. The routine made me a believer,thus I'm so stubborn.

I'm not in love with the flavor, I find it very sweet and the hot stuff makes me sneeze...oh well! IF I lose a couple of pounds that's ok...I love to eat and limit what I eat to only that which is healthy or which I can 'work' off...

thanks to all for their support and knowledge they have so unselfishly shared.
