Re: starting master cleanse
Wed, December 14, 2005 - 3:40 PMokay, i finally started it TODAY!
however i'm not experiencing the '3-4 movements' that are in the instructions. (with the exception of when i first wake up)
is it okay to take laxative tea several times throughout the day to encourage bowel movement? or am i fine as is, despite what the book says?
thanks -

Re: starting master cleanse
Thu, December 15, 2005 - 6:59 AMare you hydrated?
DO NOT take that tea through out the day. you could get stomach cramps and sick.
how much lemonade and water are you drinking?
the SWF made me go a couple times. and i am really sensitive to the tea. i had pure senna. not that smooth moves brand. what tea do you have? -

Re: starting master cleanse
Thu, December 15, 2005 - 6:41 PMi'm going pee often, so i must be hydrated. would drinking extra water help?
i drink from 6-8 glasses of lemonade, with maybe 3-4 glasses of water in between. im squeezing half a lemon + a little over 8 oz of water for the lemon, and i have no clue how to measure the cayenne so i just put in an amount that seems right.
i'm drinking the yogi tea brand 'get regular', a gentle laxative tea. main ingredient is senna.
the salt water flush tastes so horrible, i think that i'd rather make the tea tomorrow than go through that again!
here's what happens: early in the morning i feel nauseous, this means i need to go to the toilet, which comes out diarrhea-like. after i get up, then i drink the salt water flush. no more elimination comes out.
however today, i had a very small movement once. so its basically once a day, with maybe a tiny amount in between. -

Re: starting master cleanse
Thu, December 15, 2005 - 8:15 PMmaybe you dont have alot to move out?
i cleaned up my diet but before that i was hotdogs and nachos and beer...and all that crap you should never eat.
on the fourth day i still had some solids. (totally gross i know..but its what happened. haa ha)
try alvita brand senna. its 100% senna and it really works well. plus the papers are oxygen bleached and staple free. (carcinogen free and you can zap it in the microwave) make sure you are steeping you tea as long as the box says. otherwise it will be weak and not work as well.
if you totally hate the SWF you dont have to do it. you can just do the tea. as long as you are having some sort of BM everyday to excrete the toxins. i HATE the swf. if i do the MC again i am NOT doing the swf. i am doing the teas only.
for me the tea made me start to sweat..and then i would go.
after the swf i went like 4 times or something crazy. the whole thing just poured right through me. it made me not feel good at all so i only did it once.
i think i was having about 6 lemonades a day and at least 2 waters inbetween that (16 oz. ea).

Re: starting master cleanse
Fri, December 16, 2005 - 5:14 AMah, wow. thats nuts, the classic american diet, heh
ohh ok, so it's a good thing that nothing solid is coming out, eh?
well the laxative tea works. but i'll remember that brand alvita--unfortnately i haven't found it at the health food stores i've been too. i try to avoid the 'whole foods' monster, but that means that the local stores have smaller selections; one only sold a single brand of maple syrup
this morning, i used less salt and it was fine. i don't know if i adjusted or the taste was significantly milder (probably both) but now i can handle it.
i don't have measuring spoons, so i estimate the amount of salt and maple syrup.
i'll stick to the SWF, the book mentions that i can try drinking plain water before/after and see if that makes a difference. -

Re: starting master cleanse
Fri, December 16, 2005 - 12:56 PMyeh. i drank a ton of water after.
well not a ton but i think a couple glasses because i felt so wierd. perhaps thats why so much poured out.
also if you lay on your right side your stomach will move it out faster. try it. its wierd! -

Re: starting master cleanse
Fri, December 16, 2005 - 4:05 PMmortifying experience:
i had a slight elimination twice while walking on the street. luckily i was near my house, and the second time by a bathroom, and happen to be on my period so that saved somethign gross from sticking on my undies
did this happen to you? it was like a delayed reaction of the salt water flush, :shudder:
i don't want it to happen again. -

This is the maximum depth. Additional responses will not be threaded.Unsu...
Re: starting master cleanse
Fri, December 16, 2005 - 10:04 PMi didnt have it happen but i stayed at home the whole time.
another tip:
if you feel like you have a bit of gas that needs to pass..
HOLD IT
at least until you get to the restroom. its not gas at all but poo. and the SWF usually affects you for up to two hours.
perhaps grab some pads to wear until you get used to what it feels like. (stash a fresh undie and babywipes in your bag too just so you can relax) -
