Midnight.
This morning I was at 149 lbs. Was really starting to crave food. Any food. I used the last of my syrup today. So, I decided today would be my last day. Finished my lemonade around 2pm. Felt fine all day. A few cramps. Had some crackers this afternoon. Then made a turkey sandwich and some tomato soup for dinner. Got some major cramps from that. Ready to be eating regular foods again.
All in all, not bad. Might do it again sometime. lost 5 lbs. :) Now I just have to keep it off.

Master Cleanse Day 4
11:54am - 151 lbs.
Horrible cramps this morning when I woke up. Couldn't tell if they were period cramps or poop cramps. Either way, they hurt. Was starving when I woke up. Got heart burn again around the time I got to work. Think it might be the lemon. Too much citric acid. My throat isn't used to it. Starting to feel a little light headed. Not too bad. But I hear that you get a little loopy after day 3 or 4. So, its a good thing that today is my Friday. I'll be home for the worst of the loopy. :)
5:00pm
Feeling a little loopy. Maybe just tired. Had a bit of a headache behind my eyes this afternoon. Not any more hungry than I normally would be at this time of day. Glad I'm going to have the next to days off work. Kinda daydreamy today. Had a few cramps today. Not too horrible.

Master Cleanse Day 3
10am - 152 lbs.
Got lots of sleep last night. I think my body needed it, cause I didn't wake up til about 7:45am. Well, except for the urgent pooping that woke me up at 4am and again at 5am. Since I had already pooped twice this morning, and woke up late, I decided not to do the salt water flush. Maybe I'll do it again tomorrow. Also didn't work out today. But I lost another pound. Thats exciting. I haven't seen 152 in a LONG while.
Had some heart burn this morning. And minor cramps in my stomach. but both have died down. and I was starving this morning when I woke up.
Feeling fine now. Body is slightly sore but not too bad.
7:30pm
Got REALLY hungry today. Started doubting my ability to do this much longer. Then as soon as my friend said he would buy my stuff off of me, I changed my tune. I'll stick with it. Got some more heart burn tonight. And finally bought a lemon squeezer. Much easier. My hands were starting to get tired from squeezing lemons. It was taking about 7 lemons each morning. We'll see how many it takes tomorrow now that I have a squeezer.
11:30
not sure why I stayed up this late. headed to bed right now. about to drink my tea. not doing the salt water flush anymore. f that. the tea works just fine and tastes better.
end of the night 152 lbs.

Master Cleanse Day 2
8:20am 153lbs
Lost 1.5 lbs. Thats exciting. Haven't been below 154 in a while. I must have made the tea more correctly last night than I did on sunday night. Because I had to poop as soon as I got out of bed this morning. Did 10 min. of pilates this morning. Showered. Made my lemonade. The salt water still hasn't hit me yet. I drank it around 7am. My stomach keeps grumbling but I can't tell if its cause I'm hungry, or cause I'm gonna need to poop soon. Only slightly hungry, I guess. Still feeling ok. Got plenty of sleep last night.
12:30pm
The salt water flush still hasn't HIT me. I've pooped a little bit about once and hour. I'm thinking that the fact that the tea hit me this morning before I took the salt water, means I didn't have anything in there to flush. Or maybe its that I only drank 3/4 of it. I was literally bent over the sink trying not to puke while drinking it. So I didn't finish it. Not terribly hungry. I've drank about half of my 5 servings already.
7:50pm
Doing ok. Had my extra 20 oz by 7pm. Did about 20 minutes of light cardio. Thinking of switching the flushes. Doing the salt water at night and then right after the "flush" drinking the tea so that it hits me in the morning. It seems silly to do the tea at night and then as soon as I poop in the morning, I drink the salt water flush. I've already flushed everything. It seems pointless.
10:30pm
Just finished watching a movie. About to drink my tea. Considering not doing the salt water in the morning. Guess I'll play it by ear. Kinda tired. Starting to get tiny headaches. But they only last a few seconds. Oh and started my period today. So, the extra cramps should be interesting. Good night. :)
End of the night... 154 lbs.

Lemonade Diet - Master Cleanse
So, somehow I got convinced to do the Lemonade Diet. The Master Cleanse. I've never done anything like this before but I figured "hey, i'll give it a try". Plus, I've got a friend doing it with me. Sorry if any of this is too graphic. I am really doing this for my own documentation. But if you feel like reading along, feel free.
Day 1 - 8am. - 154.5 lbs.
I took the laxative tea last night around midnight. Woke up today at 6:30am. Did the salt water flush. Didn't make me have to poop right away like they said it would. Did 20 minutes of pilates. I expected I would be pooping by this point. but no. Took a shower. Fixed up my lemonade for the day. Tastes way better than I expected it to. Still not sure I'm going to think so after 10 days of nothing but that. But I'm trying to keep an open mind. Finally at 8am, my body tells me it's time to hit the toilet. Horrible cramps while on toilet. Lasted about 2-3 minutes. I'm supposed to be starting my period any day now. Thought it might have been that. But it wasn't. Too high and way more painful. Was on toilet for 20-25 minutes. :( Giving myself good luck wishes for day 1.
11:15am
Stomach is a little grumbly. and cramps are minor. Already about 1/3 done with my lemonade for the day. however, I only ended up making about five and a half of the 6-10 servings. So, if i finish it early, I'll just make a few more tonight.
10:30pm
Stole two bites of turkey tonight. Probably could have done without it. But I did it. And the first thing you learn at weight watchers is own up to every bite you take. Not feeling terrible tonight. Definitely craving every food I see. But thats just habit. My stomach isn't really that upset yet. A little grumbly. but not too bad.
Going to bed way earlier than I usually do. Mostly cause I know I'm going to have to get up early to do the flush. But also cause I don't want to think about eating anymore tonight. and I'm bored. I've heard that day 2 and 3 is where it really gets hard. So, I'm trying to mentally prepare for it. I guess. We'll see.
End of the night. 155.0lbs
