What Did I Eat?:
Nothing really, I just had Pat and Oscars bread sticks & a medium mountain dew drink.
It made me feel so bloated but it was good! Yet Unhealthy.

Master Cleanse:
Which brings me to my next topic, cleansing!
I do not know if you all have heard of the Mater Cleanse.
Well if you haven't there is a link below:
And
It tells you about the cleanse, there is also more blogs about the master cleanse and the journey,
you can also look on youtube for videos, it's a new a fad, i guess.
Here is the recipe:
1. 2 tablespoons of lemon juice
2. 2 tablespoons of organic maple syrup grade B
3. 1/10 tablespoon of cayenne pepper powder
4. 10 oz glasses of distilled water (This is around 295ml of water)
Well any who back to my topic, this is not just about cleansing on the inside but in my life as well. Lets start with cleansing on the inside first since the inside is more important that the outside. That sounded deep, hu! lol! I'm kidding!
I do not follow all of the rules for the master cleanse because I'm not that disciplined, I must eat unless I'm fasting but that is totally different. I'm all over the place, let me stick to the topic! I do the salt water flush, it is so nasty! But after a while you get use to it, so it doesn't taste that bad after a while. You drink the salt water first thing in the morning, on an empty stomach. You use sea salt or uniodized salt, I used the uniodized salt, it works real well, believe me! Make sure when you drink the salt water that you are always near a toilet, it is no joke! It gets rid of all the, dare I say, boo boo, thats bad, i'll just say it cleans your intestines.
Salt Water Recipe:
1 quart of lukewarm or room temperature water;
2 level teaspoons of sea salt
You are supposed to drink the smooth move tea the night before you do the salt water flush, on an empty stomach. You can get the Smooth Move Tea at a health store, like Sprouts Farmers Market, if I'm not mistaken I think that Albertson's sell the tea as well. But an organic store will definitely have it.
The Cayenne Pepper burns your throat, many people chug it down, you know I'm not doing that! I always have a cold glass of water with me when I drink the concoction with Cayenne Pepper in it, I usually drink 2 glasses of water because it is so hot. I recommend drinking this through a straw because Apple Cider Vinegar on your teeth is not good. Do not feel discouraged though because it'll pay off in the end, you'll be healthier. Instead of the Master Cleanse Recipe that is posted above, I tweaked it a little to fit what would be best & healthier for me:
1. 2 tablespoons of organic apple vinegar
3. 1/10 tablespoon of cayenne pepper powder
4. 10 oz glasses of distilled water (This is around 295ml of water)
I also eat, I have to be more serious about eating healthy while doing this cleanse because that salt water flush is just to nasty to be playing around, & I'm unhealthy, so I need a cleanse! I also have to start exercising again. I think this cleanse is good for 3-7 days but over that seems a little unhealthy because your not really eating. When you get hungry you basically ease your hunger by drinking the first recipe above, I'll post it again:
1. 2 tablespoons of lemon juice
2. 2 tablespoons of organic maple syrup grade B
3. 1/10 tablespoon of cayenne pepper powder
4. 10 oz glasses of distilled water (This is around 295ml of water)
To break the diet, I believe it is different for each person, depending on if you are a vegetarian or a non vegetarian. There is a link below that you can check out, that might help.
I think it is a little to unhealthy for me, I must eat. I enjoy eating lots of fruit, while on the cleanse and off the cleanse. One thing that I notice that is a positive outcome when I'm on this cleanse, is that I drink lots of water. If your going on the Master Cleanse to lose weight, I would like to inform you that many people lose lots of weight while on the cleanse but gain it back very rapidly because you do not really eat solid food while on the cleanse. I don't think it is very healthy to go on it for to long and deprive yourself of food. So in order to not stuff your face when you get off of the cleanse, do something that you feel works better for you. However, it is good if your trying to lose weight for an event that is a week or two away!

I hope that helped a little, I'm not a pro at the whole Master Cleanse because I made up my own rules!
Lastly, I am not a doctor, so you should talk to your doctor first, to see if this is healthy for you!
