well girls (and guys) i am starting day 8 of my Master-Cleanse and while i hadn't been planning on giving up, i was really frustrated with my progress. throughout the first week i felt gross and bloated and was still having hunger pains, which is just weird. but i woke up with some serious cramps at 5am today and (sorry for the graphic-ness!) had to run to the bathroom like my life depended on it. ahhhh...feeling like my body was just trying so hard to get rid of whatever that stuff was! now i have that energetic feeling that i was missing so much!!! i'm going on a 40-mile bikeride today...hopefully my friend won't have to leave me by the side of the road, haha.
i wanted to share because you should all remember that sometimes results don't come overnight. everyone's body is different. just be patient and persistant and you will make it through. right now i am sooo happy that i didn't give up! you're all beautiful - good luck with your fasts!
