Light is right


A lot of people noticed that I did lose weight. I really didn’t see that my appearance (size) changed but everybody seems to be asking me how I lost weight. Ali also has before and after pics of me in his phone (which I may or may not post later. Lol.) and yeah, the 10-pound loss is a bit evident.

Before, I didn’t care much about my weight fluctuating but after doing the cleanse, I wanted to maintain it as it is right now. I guess I’m still a bit overweight for my height. My ideal weight is 100lbs. I’m just not sure if I could do that since the lightest that I’ve been is 105 (and that was ages ago!). Maybe if I followed the Master Cleanse exactly, I could have lost a few more pounds. I didn’t do the salt water flush and I took the laxative only once a day. It’s quite difficult going to the office with an unstable stomach so I just had my laxative the night before.

I’ve recommended the Master Cleanse to some people who wanted to lose weight but I told them that I did the cleanse not just for weight loss but to make myself healthier and be more disciplined when it comes to food. Now, I have fewer cravings and I eat a little less than I used to. Also, I have more energy to exercise. Some people may think that I’m pathetic depriving myself with food. Others may even criticize me for being overly concerned about what I put in my mouth these days. But it’s my choice. And I’m not depriving myself. I just don’t go around stuffing my mouth with every edible item that I see.

I just hope that I stay motivated to live a healthier lifestyle. I don’t want to be overweight and be prone to different diseases. It’s nice to wake up feeling a little lighter and energized. I’d like to do that everyday.

    Thanks for the inspiration, not sure if I am ready for the Cleanse yet, but if I could just stop the late night bowl of cereal I would have to start wearing a belt again.

    You should post the before and after pics. ;)

    Hey there Bill. Glad you liked my posts about the Master Cleanse. Well, sadly I gained back a few of the pounds that I lost but I’m okay with that. I’m thinking of doing the cleanse again, maybe a few weeks from now.

    Ah, I miss a good bowl of cereal. lol.

    The pics were taken using a camera phone, they’re kinda blurry but I’ll try to post ‘em here.
