The ninth day on The Master Cleanse Diet has finally come, and you can almost touch the finish line with your fingertips. Most of us can obviously see significant weight loss, inches off the waist, smoother skin, and a renewed outlook on healthier living. Some of us notice these changes after the Cleanse.
The fact is we will see these changes at one point or another. It is a case-to-case basis. On an average, by the ninth day, we all look forward to the end of the diet. You only have a day to go.
Today can be a tough day for some of the master cleansers. You may feel like giving up but it shouldn’t be a big problem finishing the day as you think that you only have 2 more days to go.
There are two ways to go, once the last day comes. Will you go on with the lifestyle, or will you totally quit? The choice is yours. But it is definitely a good chance for you to change your lifestyle.
does the cleanse have a age limit?
Alright, today is definitely one of the better days I’ve had, just because I know I only have one more official day. I bought some rice milk and frozen strawberries for a lovely smoothie on day 11. Had to finally make Christmas candies and cookies and food seems to be a strange concept at this point. I didn’t even feel tempted to take a bite. Weird. Best advice for this whole deal is to keep busy.
Alright. Day nine. Oh wow. I’ve gotten this far and I don’t see how I could possibly give up. I’m going to try and keep myself occupied and make sure to stay busy so that the time flies. I might even reward myself with a little bit of a spa day this Saturday morning. I’m actually proud of myself. I’ve been helping cook dinner and making small snacks and appetizers for my family from a day to day stand point.. I’m sure I can complete this. This is a personal goal of my own that I need to fulfill.
I’ve also noticed that my skin is a lot more clearer and that I can fit very well into most all of my clothes. I was never big in size beforehand but I did feel heavy. I feel light as a feather today and I intend to change my eating habits. They aren’t horrible, I’m a weekly Whole Foods and Trader Joe’s shopper; eating whole grains and fruits and veggies daily, but I know that I can cut out some of the junk I’ve consumed. Healthier me, here I come.
@meeh- The cleanse is a complete mind over matter challenge. While I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone under the age of 13 (that’s when I first started) it really is a maturity and mental set up. You can’t jump into this thing without prior preparation. You might easily give up if you aren’t physically and mentally prepared.
Is it safe to do this cleanse if I am breast feeding?
Day 9 for me, I have prepared a 4 week schedule of recipes to ease into a healthier lifestyle. have bought my wholegrain and whole wheat products too..but i am thinking of having 5more days on the master cleanse
I made it to day 9!! I have to say, I am pretty damn excited for this thing to be over. I never had a day where I was comfortable being around food and not eating it, unfortunately. It’s been a struggle the entire time. Of course, today was easier than many days past, and I’m certain I will finish this thing. I just wish I had the symptom that so many people describe, where they want to keep going and don’t mind it so much anymore. I can’t wait to eat!! Oh well. My skin is clear, my stomach is much flatter, my upper thighs are more slender, and I have a huge sense of pride regarding my willpower. Willpower has always been one of my bigger weak spots, so doing this has meant a lot to me as I prepare for a busy year in which I refuse to sacrifice healthy living. Good luck everyone!!!
Day 9…and feeling fine! Honestly, I thought that i was’nt going to make it this far…but I did! And believe me if I can do it…well, you know the rest
I have a lightness and peace that I never felt before, yes, I’ve been tempted, but there was something stronger than mere temptation to keep me going…I want to be healthy!!! I’m 45 now and perimenopausal and I don’t want all the problems that go with getting older (hign blood pressure, hypothyroidism, weight gain, lethargy, etc.) and the way I was going I was heading for all of those things! In May I weighed in at 191 and was so uncomfortable with my body, and depression was my state of mind all the time (I have been through a real rough few yrs…Mom died, went through divorce after 20 yrs of marriage, my sons move out of state, I moved to a different state) and I neglected my health and it showed, yout body becomes less forgiving as you get older…but today I weigh 161 lbs and I feel younger, happier, and most important, healthier! Stay strong, live long (and well) Happy Cleansing!
The end of day nine> I started out this morning very calm then I had my bout of energy, then around 5:30 as always I wanted to eat and so I worked out on my stairmaster for 30 minutes and felt great and no more hunger or THOUGHTS of hunger. I want to continue and do 14 days. I’m going to take it one day at a time after the 10 days of MC. Good luck everyone, say strong and BELIEVE you can and you will!
