Day 7 completed

There have been no other incidents of triggering on this cleanse besides day 3. I've completed 7 days on the master cleanse and will be starting day 8 today. Can't say that I haven't cheated and ate sometimes. Usually a small bowl of apple sauce or some instant mashed potatoes. I've lost 6.5 pounds so far and the pain in my right side is reduced significantly when I am not eating solid foods.

This lemonade "only" cleanse will end on Monday night, and I will ease on into a vegetable juice and soft veggies menu. A co-worker traded my extra coffee maker for a juicer she no longer uses, so I'll be having some fun figuring out how to juice things like lettuce and garlic.

Its interesting how much clearer my thinking is when on this lemonade cleanse. I'd been in a lethargic fog for several months, not wanting to do much pro-actively. Now I'm more eager to get up in the morning and have found some gumption and optimism again. It will be interesting to see how the veggie regimen changes things.
