Support From Family and Friends
This page is the place for participants in the The Master Cleanse Group Experience to post their daily entries. To post, simply leave a comment. You don’t have to be logged in to post.
Please provide 100 words each day – don’t worry; that’s not that much. The paragraph below, for example, is 100 words.
Post your experiences on the support you get from family and friends here; and on other topics below.
If you are not participating, you can still follow the posts – either for inspiration to try the cleanse or to answer the most basic question: Is The Master Cleanse right for me?
Keep it simple; just use your own language to describe your daily experience. The more you are yourself, the more others will connect with you and the more you can connect with them – which is what we are aiming for, after all: a strong support network via a group experience.
We have probably all experienced the “What’s wrong with you?” look when telling friends or family that we are trying the Master Cleanse. And equally, most of us have at least one person in our life who supports us. The Lemonade Diet is difficult, and (dis)approval by our peers can make all the difference.
In fact, that is why I started this Master Cleanse Group Experience diary; we can support each other.
Let us know about the people and experiences you have each and every day. Who made fun of you? Who showed compassion? Who understood the cleansing, and who thought you were nuts?

Hi…Wondering if anyone else out there is just starting the cleanse. I am on day 2 of the ease in but will be starting the lemonade phase tomorrow. My biggest challenge is that i am a stay at home mother of 3, all under the age of 4 and i babysit an additional child 2 days a week. Even though i will only be drinking meals still need to be made for my babies. Anyone else go through the process as a stay at home mom? I think i will find lots of fun things to do with the kids outside of the house for the next few days until i get past the craving for food.

My kids are grown but my mother lives with me, who has cancer. I still have had to cook for her 3x’s a day an though it isn’t easy if you are strong willed, th cravings for food will pass. I am now on day 7 and I have lost 12 pounds. YOU CAN DO IT!!! I promise. Make sure you do the sea salt portion, as well. You must remove waste from your body daliy. Good Luck

My support system is strong. My family understands my desire to stick to the MC. They are eating the way they always have and I am not feeling weak at all. My boyfriend can see the way my body is scaling down and the weight I have lost, I will not find again. I feel really strong and empowered. I have been planning on how I will change my eating habits. I found a great page that lists the the worlds healthiest foods. I can’t wait!!!

Ease-Out Day 2
I was glad in a sense that I am coming out of the cleanse. I do not know if my family were happy to see that I started eating again albeit orange juice on the first day of ease-out. It really doesn’t make much difference whether I eat or drink. During the cleanse I was making lemonade every hour or so and drinking it.
I met up with friends at lunch today and told them about my cleanse. One of them said she could never do it. I told her she neeeded to read about it before she could do anything like this.
We went to the beach in the afternoon. At the cafe I watched my friend get food for her two children. It’s sad to see what the public are being fed on: cakes, ice cream, sausage meat wrapped in puff pastry, coca cola, etc. These are nutritionless, what has the world come to? Children grow up with diabetes, heart disease, cancer, etc. and no one knows why they get it, not even the so-called experts. If I tell them, will they have the ear to listen? Sadddddd.

Ease-Out Day 1
This morning at around 7:00 I was lying in sweat. I was also weak so that I decided not to take the SWF. I was weak because I was very active all day yesterday until 1am in the morning writing comments plus that I didn’t have maple syrup in my lemonades. Anyway, I turned to my husband and asked him if he would go and get me maple syrup, I was considering getting 6 bottles because I was still thinking of going on with the cleanse. My husband thought I was joking but I reasoned with him saying that I had and always would do anything for him if he was in need of help.
You see, this is why my husband doesn’t want me to fast because I put him in an inconvenient position. Later on he made fun of me by mimicking me when I was weak.
