From the impression I get of the "Master Cleanse", it isn't about the weight loss as much as it is about the purifying benefits.

That's what I've heard too. It can jumpstart a change in diet but isn't necessarily designed to be a weight loss tool. I considered doing it because I was eating horribly for awhile, but I got back on track on my own.

Not to be gross, but I've heard you're also supposed to do a salt water flush every morning to get your bowels moving.....sounds fun. LOL

the idea is to cleanse, purify, and then start fresh with a healthy lifestyle..i.e. excercising, eating better....the book said and others have stated that if you continue to drink a large amount of H20 everyday you won't gain the water weight back...the other part of the weight loss is built up fecal matter and bad fat....

Day 1

ok....I've started my cleanse...the herbal laxative tea isn't bad...it has very little taste actually....I had a cup last night before bed and I'm having one now....you can opt to drink the seasalt bath in the mornings but I've tried that before and its hard to stomach...I'm going to attempt to use the seasalt at least twice a week though because it helps "clear out" everything thats been "loosened" up....So far the tea from last night hasn't had an effect..although I do feel some rumble in my tummy...I just made my lemonade for the day....its not very much but I can have as much H20 and peppermint tea as I like!!
