These pages are an account of our transition through the Mastercleanse Detox programme. This is a 10 day diet designed to cleanse the body and restore good health. We are going on it as a result of a recommendation from a friend in church. We are likely to discuss things here such as our bodily functions. If you are queasy about such matters or don't want to know what we did in the bathroom today, I would recommend you don't continue to read this blob. Here we go .............

Day 4 - Mastercleanse - 25th November

This had been a "driving us mad" day today. Watching the boys eat and preparing their food, really was excuciating in the extreme.

We have done all our lemonades today and the morning and evening laxative (senna) teas. Julie did admit that she stole 3 grapes when she went to the MOLO (Mothers Of Little Ones) event this morning. But I don't think it will be a problem from the detox point of view.

When we come off this diet we are supposed to drink only orange juice for 2 days and then progress onto thin soups. Proper food would be 2 or 3 days after that. Apparently you need to give your body a chance to recover and rebuild it's ability to digest.

Julie had 2 major visits to the bathroom today and I completed my second day with no movements at all. Perhaps I should go for the salt water drink tomorrow.

We are feeling hungry several times a day but it comes and goes quickly. I only had one headache today. Julie says she feels OK but is really missing eating.
