Day 1 of The Master Cleanse
So, last night I decided that I was going to try something: The Master Cleanse. For those of you who don’t know, this consists of 6 – 12 glasses/day of:
1. 8 oz pure water
2. 2 tablespoons fresh squeezed lemon juice
3. 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
4. 1/ 10 tsp (or as much as you candle handle) of cayenne pepper.
5. Nightly laxatives (Hey, it’s a cleanse…these are necessary)
This morning I made my very first meal. I have to admit that it was pretty good, flavorful and not hard to get down. I’m definitely a little nervous about doing this, but would really like to make it for 13 days. I have a cruise to go on and would like to give myself enough time to do the cleanse, and work my way back up towards eating regular foods. Just because I will be eating again, doesn’t mean I’ll be eating crappy food though, I’d like to still try to attempt a healthy diet to maintain my weight/health.
Since I’m trying to keep myself motivated, I feel the best way to do so, is make myself write about how it’s going everyday. I’m starting to get hungry so should probably start drinking my next little meal
Wish me luck.
