What is going through your mind? We have thoughts that seem out of control when we are in our daily grind – many of these revolve around food. We may also feel stress that in turn causes us to eat, to have emotional reactions. Many people report feeling in more control while doing The Master Cleanse – alongside a sense of clarity. Do commercials about food drive you crazy? Are you more patient than ever?

Mornings during the master cleanse are fantastic. The body feels so at rest, its amazing. Im on day 7. I rose and had green tea, didnt have my lemonade until 10am.
The cravings only come in the evening. Especially as my brain knows that for months, I went to happy hour practically everyday to scarf down on beer and grease. My eating was out of control. I forget the hormone that triggers hunger, but it surely rises in the evening, then decreases at sunset; its so obvious. I do miss eating, but it has nothing to do with physical hunger. I crave random foods everyday, even stuff I wouldnt even normally want. Like ritz crackers, corned beef sandwiches. And the stuff I normally pigged out on (wings, fried seafood, cheesy garlic bread, etc etc) I dont even want. The mind is weird.

Ease out day 3 – how great do i feel about myself? I actually think im amazing and i cant believe how easy it all seems in hindsight! Thank goodness the hand things happened on the last day because i might have caved if it had been earlier. I did feel a bit sorry for myself but luckily hubby was home so he spoilt me and has looked after me for the last few days. Im still feeling a lot more alert mentally than i was and there is a sense of calmness about me that wasnt there before – calm mentally and emotionally – i guess you would call it an inner calm. I suffer from anxiety quite badly which is a side effect of my ME but thats gone so it makes me wonder if that also is caused by something i eat? I have an appointment with my dietician later this week so i intent to pick her brains about the affect that food can have on our minds as well as out bodies.

Day 7 of the MC aka Lemonade Diet.. wow.. well this is my 2nd time doing the MC and i’m doing it for losing weight primarily I am not going to lie but also as a support to my wife who has gained some weight with me and introduced me to the MC in the first place. I just feel really sluggish on day 7 and I am planning on going for 30 days.. any tips?

Lemonade Diet Day 5
Ok first let us marvel at the fact that i haven’t had solid food for the pas 4 days. Isn’t that amazing. And i am still alive (lol). Granted i am still getting nourishment from the lemonade but somehow NO solid food for 4 days is difficult to believe. So that is somewhat of an eye opener, I CAN DO THIS FAST.
Alright now for the negatives: I am felling the HUMPDAY, my jaw fells a bit painful i find myself opening my mouth wide to stretch my jaw’s muscle, also been massaging it just to alleviation the discomfort. Also various muscles in my body have been getting twitches (not painful just tingly) and some itchy felling on my skin nothing localize and concentrated just some milled quick itches on my arms legs and back.
at least i know these are the things that happen on the cleanse and that helps.

Ease Out Day 2 – Been a bit bored and frustrated to day because of problems with a computer programme I need for work but whereas normally I would think oh well I’ll have a cake to cheer me up and reward myself for getting through it im only thinking oooh great tomorrow I can have some raw veggies and actually have something other than the crackers to chew. Cant really wait to be honest and I know I shouldn’t but im really looking forward to something meaty even though every time I read Stanley Burroughs book on the Master Cleanse I think I will never eat meat again.

lemonade Diet Day 4
Yesterday morning and afternoon thought several time “what’s all the fuss about the lemonade diet i might just go for 50 days, this is too easy…” and sure enough in the evening right before going to bed all sort of terrible thought just overwhelmed me “why are you doing this”, “you don’t have to..”, “Your brother will bent over laughing on his knees if he heard you….” (that last one made me laugh too). The point is somehow you can have many emotion coming to you all in the same day and usually you just have to wait for the negative to come at you and keep doing whatever you are doing at the time till the feelings go away and then you feel a lot better.
Also i know that so far it’s been sort of easy because i am in vacation and i am not doing much physical effort anyway. But i fear next week will be different. School is starting again and just with that statement i can feel the enormous physical strain the combination will have on me. Not to mention the almost daily 24 kilometer (14 miles) i will have to either walk or bike to get there and back *Scary*.
