My Master Cleanse- Day 1

Published by

on

Today is December 26th 2013 my first day of my Master Cleanse.

I woke up early this morning so that I could head to whole foods to purchase the ingredients that is needed for my cleanse:

(Everything organic):

Lemons,

Cayenne Pepper &

Grade B Maple Syrup.

The unrefined salt I already had at home!

After purchasing I came home & made a 2 liter jug.

Before taking my first taste of what would be my future meals, I started off with 32 oz. of salt water.

The taste was unbearable. I never enjoyed drinking salt water so this is something I am going to have learn to get use to.

I waited for a couple of minutes to allow the salt water to flush through my system and then poured my first Lemon Water Detox for the day.

I topped off my drink with 2 shakes of the cayenne pepper and took my first sip.

I was shocked & amazed. The taste was delicious. It was a taste that I never had before. After my first sip I was excited and could not stop smiling.

I was worried that I would hate the taste & to my amazement IT WAS DELICIOUS!!!!!!!!!…

Through out the day I never found my energy dropping 7 did not get the sense of being starved.

What I did during the day:

In the morning

I cooked breakfast for my sisters making them: pancakes, eggs, hot chocolate, & not once did I cheat or nibble!

During my pre cleanse where I was just drinking the juices for 3 days I nibbled here and there but for this MASTER CLEANSE I plan to keep it strictly to the lemonade.

I will admit as I saw my sisters eat I wished I was eating a  warm fluffy pancake with them but I just took a drink of my lemonade each time I felt tempted & I was fine. I was able to walk away.

After breakfast I did some light errands. Dropped off my library books at the downtown library, went to go pull out a money order. I then did my laundry when I got back home and during the whole time I had my drink and re filled my drink every time it was emptied.

Later during the after noon I took my sisters to the Beverly Center and we did some light shopping! I made sure to take my drink with me and after 2 hours we rapped it up on the way home I bought them chipotle for dinner and I do admit in the line I was wishing I could order myself a delicious burrito but I did not give in. That is when I realized I am past the stage of being hungry and now its all mental. Once I can get past the mental stage I know it will be easy from there on out.

At about 5:30 pm my energy was still normal , I did not feel weak or dizzy all day so I decided to do my usual work out. I ran for about 3 miles. After my run since I felt fine I did about 20 minutes of lower body & core strength training & felt great!

At night I had made another class of the lemonade but this time I heated it up and put my laxative tea bag in it ! It taste so nice it was a perfect way to end my night.

My mind:

The thoughts that I was thinking about during the day was how I couldn’t wait till I can eat what I want. Then the thought of what I would eat & how amazing it will taste kept going through my mind. I did not think of all the processed foods or unhealthy foods I was actually thinking of all the healthy clean foods I would start making.

I cant wait to try cooking white rice with quinoa and steamed broccoli finely chopped up or make steamed veggies with a backed sweet potato. I think this is the most amazing part of this cleanse. It is the fact that your mind is appreciating food and how amazing food really is. I cant wait to see what tomorrow brings!

Stool:

As for using the restroom to release some stool, there was none of that today.  Although, while  I was running I did need to go but since I had to wait till I got home, I no longer felt the urge to go.

Hopefully tonight my tea will help push whatever it needs out and ill see if I visit the toilet tomorrow!

The only thing that I noticed is that I have peed a ton.
