Master Cleanse and the Lap Band...

Anyone ever done it? I'm starting today for cleansing and weightloss purposes. I'm 10lbs from my own first personal goal and I MUST reach it by monday. I can do this, I can do this, I can do this. I thought about doing the pre-op diet or the liquids pouch test diet but then I thought if I'm going to do it, I need to cleanse my body as well.

 

So here I am...dreading my first Salt water slam... the thought of it...ICK...

 

I know you can do the master cleanse for 40 days but I only intend on doing it til Monday morning before my fill appointment. I also want them to go super aggressive on my fill, since I skipped my last one, if they'll put 2 cc's in that would be good, or maybe even 1.5 cause I need one. I have days where I feel like a hungry hungry hippo and days where I want nothing at all.

 

I'm super sore from working out yesterday...Oh my goodness...I think it was the stretching that did me in, not even the work out lol.

 

It's all working and worth it, when kids tell you "Oh wow you're getting skinnier" lol gotta love the honesty of kids, especially when they keep you in check as well...as the 4 yr old says to me "Why do you always eat that?" as I'm popping something not good for me into my mouth. I stop to think, do I ALWAYS eat that? and pop it out... lol it's a great checks and balances system lol

 

So now I'm off to the store, need some syrup and some seasalt... here goes umm something lol:thumbup:

I dont' know exactly what a master cleanse is, so I know I haven't done it. Whatever it is, you are awesome for doing it! Go you!

I have done the master cleanser and it is awesome. Read Stanley Burroughs books. He developed the recipies in Hawaii some years ago. First thing Its a cleanse. weight loss will happen if you do the cleanse. Second get good himalayan salt and good B grade maple syurp. The salt water "baths" are suppost to be the same consistancy as your body. If you make it too salty to will throw it up. Mild saltyness in warm water. I made a shot of it in the morning. STAY close to home for at least three days especially in the morning. Dont cheat! and Stick with it for the full 10 days. It is also important to come off the cleanse SLOWLY. with veggie juice and broth. I experienced such a burst of energy doing this cleanse , as well as a clear mind. It is truly amazing! Good Luck . I might hace to kick start another one here soon!

Take Care!
