Peter Glickman’s book is definately a must read if you plan on doing the Master Cleanse. It pretty much answers all the questions you may have. I am starting my MC on July 23th and am completely prepared. I have read every book that I could find on the subject and Peter Glickman’s is very informative,

Thanks Peter!

Thank you for that tip. I suspected I wasn’t drinking enough water or liquids.

I will add that to my spreadsheet.

You are on the right track Betty!!

Here is something that I learned from Weight Watchers: Sometimes if you do not eat enough calories, especially if you are exercising, your body will do a “reverse” – hold on to the weight.

Try adding more water, maybe 3 servings more that you are drinking now. That extra weight that you are experiencing could be retention. Especially if you are exercising along with eating less, your body might be holding on to fluids to make up for the calories.

Keep up the good work! You can do it!

Although I don’t do it all the time, lately I’ve been keeping a spreadsheet of everything I eat, and the calories included. There is another row devoted to exercise and calories burned.

I’ve discovered that (no matter how much I exercise) if I exceed my allotted calories by even a small margin, I will gain weight the next day! I gain weight much too easily. It’s always a struggle.
