The false bravado of day 1 often comes crashing down on day 2. The first time I did the cleanse, I went flying into day 2 like the king of the world. I figured I got through day 1 so easily that this would be no problem. By the time lunch rolled around on day 2, I had changed my tune.
The days ahead of day 2 can seem endless. In fact, that is one of the strangest sensations I get when I do the cleanse. It is such a commitment. Event thinking about breaking it causes pause, because you have to take time to break it. Mind you, on day 2, I have heard from many people who have quit the cleanse with a Whopper with cheese, or some other comfort food. But later on in the cleanse, we seem to recognize that if we are to break it, we will need to do it slowly.
That said, day 2 is still relatively easy at first, a mere precursor to the “healing events” of day 3 and day 4, and the psychological pinnacle of the social addiction to food. If it seems like you’ve hit a wall, just climb up over and keep on going. The good news is that you CAN do it. I know you can. You can do anything. And if you don’t do it this time, you WILL do it next time.
This is week 3 of the master cleanse, no not day 15. I did 3 days the first week and broke down and ate an apple, than a cucumber than I quit. Week 2 I did 3 days, than I made vegetable soup and quit. Today is day 2, quit again. I did lose weight yes 6 pounds actually but it will all come back when I eat normal again. Darn it I’ll keep trying.
need some help here for day 2….doing the master cleanse…still eating fruits n veggies tho….figured they cant hurt….been having stomach issues….thinking about adding a glass of milk for calcium…need advice….already tired of drinking the lemons….suggesstions?
You’re not actually doing the MC at all. MC plus fruits/veggies/maybe some milk is not a cleanse. The idea is to cleanse your digestive system completely, by adding stuff you are going to be hindering this.
By all means, do whatever you like, but don’t be disappointed when you get different results than expected.
I need some guidance on the ease in days…what do I eat…can some one break it down into meals..I don’t want to sound dumb..but just want to do it right…and have everything @ home..thanks
lemonade diet Day 1 its about 8:30 p.m. The first day hasn’t been as hard as thought but more difficult then I expected, if that makes any sense. Morning was not so hard went thru it like a breeze by lunch, I was really wanting to eat but I did make it but evening and smelling food cooking since my three kids still had to eat was really tempting. I had many thoughts of quitting but I haven’t. I have had a headache and of course some hunger pains but this close to bed time now I might as well move on to day two. Hopefully, each day will get easier.
