Re: A comment on the MC and weight loss

Hi Somer,

Thank you for your response. I recognize your name from the forum as I have read your other entries. Clearly you know this diet. I will definitely do the liver cleanse as suggested. Is the liver cleanse just for one day? I couldn’t tell from the little I just read on it. If not, then how long do you suggest doing it for me?

Your message was very precise for anyone reading this. However, I was hoping to get a little more info for myself. I was trying to express in my original message that I am very healthy and drink nothing but water. I have been a fitness trainer and competed in fitness contests in the past. I am only saying this to get the point across that I have always lived a more than healthy lifestyle, and have been educated for over 20 years on nutrition. This year I had medical issues and against all my better judgment listened to dieticians and a nutritionist of an HMO that made me gain a lot of weight for me personally. I am only 5 ft tall and I put on an extra 10lbs which is BRUTAL for my body type to lose easily

Having said that, my question in regards to the Master-Cleanse is for a very fit person who has always eaten well and drinks nothing but herbal teas and water and has done Colon Cleanses in the past. Does it sound normal to not lose any weight in the first 6 days? I was really hoping to not only cleanse my body but to lose this extra 10 lbs or at least 8lbs of it! The second question is do you think I will see more weight loss at 10 days? Do you suggest someone like me trying to do the Master-Cleanse longer like 14 days if I dont lose the weight? I was hoping to get away with only doing 10days of the MC. Just as you said, fat loses the toxins first so I am not seeing any weight loss. I am getting a little frustrated and dont want to do this any longer than necessary for cleansing purposes. The only reason why I would do the Master-Cleanse longer IS for weight loss. Any suggestions for me on this? Thank you for any further help you may have! Oh and I have maybe lost 1 1/2 lbs in 6 days.
