If you have followed the pre diet instructions, then today will be the 4th day of the master cleanse. But the truth is that this is actually the first day of the actual master cleanse. Whether you have finished the cleanse for the first time, 2nd day or even countless amount of time, the first day of the master cleanse can fill you with mixed emotions.
More often, you will have a surge of motivation that keeps you excited about day 1 hence most likely you will have no trouble doing the cleanse. But if you have no go through the pre diet, you may suddenly have a strong desire to eat as time goes by. Maybe breakfast and lunch is still alright but when it comes to the night time, you will feel the cravings haunting you.

Most people have trouble drinking the salt water flush for the first time, but you must still drink it. If you have trouble drinking it, don't give up because it gets easier every time! Add more water to dilute it if you can't swallow it but makes it harder every time.

For day 1, you may want to prepare the lemonade in the morning so that you can keep the lemonade fresh. Do take note that after 8 hours, the lemonade may turn bad even if you have kept it in the refrigerator. To the people who have just started, the making of the lemonade can be challenging although it is actually quite easy. But with close instructions on the internet, you should have no trouble making the lemonade.
To those who just embark on the 1st day of the master cleanse, we wish you good luck and congratulation that you embark on the journey to cleanse your body.

@Ana : Hope all is well for you and wish you all the best for the master cleanse. It is definitely great to go vegetarian. In fact, avoid the eggs and the dairy products as they are not good for our health.
well this is my first day on the MC and so far I’ve been good but I keep thinking about all the foods I could be eating right now and wondering if Im really going to last the 10 days… Hope so Im really excited about this so Im going to go excercise to get my mind off the food
Today is my first day on the Master Cleanse. It hasn’t been too difficult, but I had to go grocery shopping for my family and then cook dinner for them, so that was harder. It’s 7:10 PM now, and I’m almost finished with my 6 glasses, so I will have to have water for the rest of the night if I feel hungry. I’m proud that I have made it this far.
I started the Master Cleanse yesterday. I had a bowel movement after the first sea salt dose yesterday morning and nothing has come out since. I’m feeling great this morning but worried that I am not purging anything. Should I add more sea salt?
I started this morning for the first lastnight I had a slimming tea not sure if that was ok, but this morning I got up had bowel movements, after I drank the salt drink nothing happen no bowel movements and it is now after 3pm. I am using the maple syrup grade A because I had no other choice.
Hi Everyone! Finished 12 days on 8/26…lost 13lbs and have to say that I am darn proud of myself! I have started again this morning after being naughty this weekend! I bought organic lemons and am going to increase my cayenne pepper. I am planning on 10 days this time and doing it for 21 days in later Oct. My goal is to lose 25 more lbs. I cannot stress how important it is to post cleanse, I made the mistake of going out to dinner on 8/28 and ate too much and felt “yucky” and 8/29 I ate sugar and felt even worse! Just proves that sugar is not good for me…this time I am going to do the post cleanse correctly! Happy Cleansing everyone!
