This is about me and my weight loss journey. I am not only losing weight, but I'm also removing toxins from my body. Post my diet, I will be following a structured healthy way of eating, which I have been following before the Master Cleanse or Maple Syrup Diet. The thing is, I'm not exactly fat - but I have gained quite a bit of weight which I would like to lose. During my 1st cleanse I managed to lose 22.5lbs /10.2 kg and learn a lot. I'm into my third cleanse now.

                              |   Day One, 3rd Cleanse   | 
                             
                            
                              Ok, I was just about to give up about a minute ago. I really need will power, I need to focus on other things, which is odd because I have tons of work to do in comparison to my previous cleanses.
  I've had some tea again this evening. So hopefully things will start moving. I have had a very hectic day today, going all over London. If anything I should have lost a whole load of weight doing that alone.
  We'll see what the scales read tomorrow morning. I know I said every 3 days - but right now I need something to really motivate me. I think I have just about managed to get back on track while blogging here. So, I'm off to the shower right now.
  I also got a message that my tea is on it's way, how can I quit before the tea even comes - hopeless!!! I should be getting the syrup anytime now as well.
  So if anyone is reading this - I am really having a hard time this time round. I hope I'll pull through. I think once I make it to day 5 I will be happy and hopefully the scales will be going down.
  Till tomorrow! |

                              Ok, I have just finished ordering my 2 boxes of tea and over 1 litre worth of maple syrup. So it looks like this is really happening now. I'm going to drink some tea right about now, because I'll be out and about tomorrow - I don't think it will be clever drinking tea then. I'll have some tea and a flush on Wednesday night. I'm not sure how the weight loss will go since I'm not on a normal cleanse but a "make shift one". I know in the past, blogging keeps me going. I will try to weigh in every 3 days and measure every 6 days (don't ask me why). I still need to buy a bottle to disguise my drink though - so maybe tomorrow? Just need to find a shop. . . . . argghhhh. Size 8 UK, here I come . . . . . wooohoooo! I'll keep blogging away with the updates. |

                              Since the last cleanse I have done really well in mantaining my weight. Don't go thinking I'm eating vegetables everyday or whatever you perceive as healthy eating. To be quite frank, I have just been eating whatever . . . But having said that, I never used to eat bad food. I had a piece of cake at a party (usually, never eat cake) Had Pizza, twice Had a mini burger from McDonalds Had ice cream once Other than that, I eat the usual stuff - not so much bread or starchy things that fill me too much. I tend to get bloated with that and now my body says no and I say no (if that makes sense).
  Overall, I have been feeling great and wish I had the will power to do this at the start of my summer break, because I would have reached my goal by now. I have dropped 2 dress sizes and everyone I see comments. Bare in mind they have no idea I was on the cleanse. So it is really amazing when I get people commenting on how much weight I've lost, I feel really good inside. When shopping I don't feel depressed anymore, because things actually fit me. So I'm planning a shopping spree of some sort, in my goal size. i.e the clothes might not fit me just yet, but they will when I'm done. I don't really want to buy anything in my current size because in 15 days I might be smaller than this, however the big deal is "will power". I have tried twice to go back on the cleanse and my brain says "eerrr no". So I'm not sure what to do anymore, well at this point anyway. I'm on a much busier schedule and one of my ideas was to just eat less, although I'm doing that anyway, it doesn't happen quick for me (the weight loss I mean).
  The other idea was to go on the cleanse and only flush and do tea on Fridays and Saturdays when I'm home. That could work. Maybe I should start as soon as I have all my cleansing shopping, as I need to top up on tea and syrup - and probably a bottle to disguise what I'm drinking when I'm out. So 20 Days could be an idea. It's just the number that springs to my mind. Or when I reach 47kg /103.6lbs. I know I'll gain a few pounds, as I gained 5.5lbs last time so that's why I have lowered the goal weight.
  So, let me stock up on tea, syrup, lemons, a bottle and I'll start as soon as everything is here. Maybe I need to pray for strength . . . . I just don't have the will power this time, and without it, it wont happen. |

                              I can't even remember how many days it's been since the cleanse, but I'm happy, it went ok. I have gained a little bit of weight, not even worth mentioning. So I'm even happier. When I got back from my trip I thought I was going to have gained a lot, but I was surprised when I went on the scales. I'm a very happy person right now, apart from other things, I am really happy about the weight thing. All my friends were asking, "where's the rest of you" and others saw pictures and asked if I'd lost weight (this was via the internet). I've been dying to hear that instead of being told I'm fat.
  I wore these pants I once burst and it's as if I borrowed them. I can't believe the progress I've made. I hope it remains the same. I think I will do tea again tonight but probably more and tomorrow morning and evening. I think I will have a go at the cleanse again for 10 - 15 days just to try and get to my goal weight and then maybe another 10 - 15 days before the year ends. |
