By Jeff McLeod on January 14, 2011 in 2011.01-Winter, My Experience

Well even though I’m getting into the swing of things, and becoming pretty good with my routines, today brought something new for me both psychologically and physically.

MCGE – Winter 2010 – Lemonade Diet Day 8 – Compromise

By Mike Olaski on January 18, 2010 in 2010.01-Winter, My Experience

With only 3 days to go there are only 2 days left for people quit the Lemonade Diet prematurely, deciding “this is good enough”, often because their will is broken, and 7 full days is a good compromise; it is a nice first try, something to be proud of. Because Day 8 follows Day 7 [...]

MCGE – Winter 2010 – Lemonade Diet Day 7 – The Stride

By Mike Olaski on January 17, 2010 in 2010.01-Winter, My Experience

Yesterday I talked about turning the corner, and the psychology of progress and accomplishment. For me, turning that corner towards the home stretch has 3 major pieces of awesome. First, I am almost home, and that feels great. But second, this is the time when I begin to hit my stride. I gain so much [...]

MCGE – Winter 2010 – Lemonade Diet Day 6 – The Corner

By Mike Olaski on January 16, 2010 in 2010.01-Winter, My Experience

We’ve gained momentum, gotten over the Hump and today we’ve turned the corner. Maybe that is too many metaphors to mix, but to me they are all just a little different, especially in the context of an event of a specific duration, one which is a challenge to complete. When training for hockey, I did [...]

MCGE – Winter 2010 – Lemonade Diet Day 4 – Momentum

By Mike Olaski on January 14, 2010 in 2010.01-Winter, My Experience

Momentum is a funny thing. As a former professional hockey player, I was witness to some pretty amazing examples of momentum. I am not talking about the momentum from high school physics that deals (although the analogy has its’ roots here). I am talking about the extra man, the silent motivator, the wind at your [...]

MCGE – Winter 2010 – Lemonade Diet Day 3 – Humpday

By Mike Olaski on January 13, 2010 in 2010.01-Winter

Last night and this morning I struggled a little, and was reminded why I called today humpday in my Day-to-Day Experience. Last night was my second night on the Laxative, and I didn’t do the SWF so I was due for a good movement. I didn’t make it through the night. Half-way through the night [...]

By Mike Olaski on January 11, 2010 in 2010.01-Winter

I recently announced the “Name Each Day Contest” because I have always had a few names for The Master Cleanse Day-to-Day: “The Lemonade Diet Day 4 – Humpday”, for example. Today, Day 1 of The Lemonade Diet for me is called “The Bandwagon” (if you don’t like it, go over and submit your suggestion for [...]

By Mike Olaski on April 25, 2009 in My Experience, The Master Cleanse

Day 10 is here, and you are feeling one of two things. You either have had enough, and are SO EXCITED to start drinking orange juice that you couldn’t stand to think of doing it one more day. You are proud of yourself, but still, you’ve had enough. You are ready to call it a [...]

Lemonade Diet – Day 9 – Almost Done

By Mike Olaski on April 24, 2009 in My Experience, The Master Cleanse

As the Lemonade Diet begins to wrap up, we generally begin to see the effects coming into focus. A few of us don’t experience the effects – whether weight loss, or improved skin, or lost inches, or a sense of well-being – until later in the cleanse. Each of us feels them in different ways [...]

Lemonade Diet – Day 8

By Mike Olaski on April 23, 2009 in My Experience, The Master Cleanse

Day 8. By now, you’ll know it can be an emotional rollercoaster. Each day feels like a continuous cycle of falling in love followed by depression because you were dumped. Sometimes I feel a deep loss for the food, like I will never eat again. Thankfully I realize, of course, that this is not true [...]

Lemonade Diet – Day 7 – Don’t Quit Now

By Mike Olaski on April 22, 2009 in My Experience, The Master Cleanse

Sometimes you will miss eating and crave eating again. The psychology of this process can be strange. You may occasionally, or even frequently, have thoughts of quitting. But you also know you can do it. Perhaps, to distract your mind, you move on to something else, playing mental gymnastics to calculate how much longer you [...]

Lemonade Diet – Day 5 – Half Done

By Mike Olaski on April 20, 2009 in My Experience, The Master Cleanse

Gazing down the home stretch of the Lemonade Diet can be incredibly empowering. You can feel the momentum building towards the finish line, which at the same time can seem so far away. “Those last few days were hard, I’ve got five more to go.” “I’m getting in the zone, I feel like I can [...]

Lemonade Diet – Day 4 – Healing Events

By Mike Olaski on April 19, 2009 in My Experience, The Master Cleanse

Day 4 may bring a clearing on several fronts. Often, you begin to get over the physical symptoms of what people call “Healing Events” (although they are reported to come throughout the cleanse, at any time).
