Well, today I was supposed to start my cleanse to get ready for injections... I didn't start the cleanse because I don't have any lemons in the house!!! We got back late last night and I'm exhausted. Of course the children were up bright and early and wanting me to start assembling some of their new toys. They are napping now but so far I've put together a pirate ship and unpackaged numerous toys. I hope I can get to the store (or find a lemon tree) today!!!

Hi Everyone, I'm curious as to how you all did for Christmas. Brenda, Carla, Sherry, Alisa, Toni...and everyone--How are you???
My Husband got my lemons for me today and I'll be master cleansing starting tomorrow. I'm excited to start my injections again. Like Brenda, I know they hold the key to real sustainable weight loss and I don't care what anyone thinks about it. If anyone was to nay say it to me, I would just tell them I stopped and decided to look at another program and go right on doing my HCG injections!!! That's probably not the most mature approach, but it's what I would do.
Kathy

Hi Kathy,
How's it going? Other than being exhausted, did you have a great Christmas? Ours was fine. Yes, when I start (still waiting on hcg), I don't want to have to answer a bunch of questions about what I am injecting and why, but when it's all over and I have lost 60 pounds, I'll tell the world! I think a majority would not understand until after they see the proof. I would like to try the master cleanse, too, but I am already doing the renewlife cleanses. I am going to download it from that link that you posted the other day, and check it out.
So....how did you do over the holiday, Kathy. Good news, I hope. Later, Toni

Its called The Master Cleanser and you can print and save your own 30 page copy here: http://healthandlight.com/TheMasterCleanse.pdf (http://healthandlight.com/TheMasterCleanse.pdf)
The other cleanse that I like to do and have done at the same time as The Master Cleanser is Colonix. If you have 28 days, Colonix will really clean you out!!! It is recommended by KT and is a great alternative to doing colonics. Check out www.drnatura.com (http://www.drnatura.com) for more info on Colonix.
If you decide to do The Master Cleanser, the salt water wash is recommended for those who have the fortitude. Four cups of hot purified water and 2 teaspoons of sea salt and alot of imagination. Try pretending that you are drinking chicken broth (without the chicken of course!). Good Luck!!!

Brenda,
Sorry to hear about your grandmother! You are one of the most positive people I know so I know you'll get through this too. I liked your example of making lemonade out of lemons -- before my husband lost his job he used to say that almost everyday "well I'm off to make some lemonade today!" I think it is a great way of putting it.
Please keep us posted on your grandmother.
Prayers and hugs,
Carla

Lori, How are you doing on the Master Cleanser? It's going well for me, I've now lost the 3.6 lbs that I had gained. I'm hoping to lose some extra pounds as well before I start. Kathy

Hello Ladies,
So, did you think I fell of the face of the earth?
I has just been a crazy holiday season like all of you have had. So, here is the moment of truth I HAVE BEEN BAD!!!!!
I had lost a total of 15 lbs. after the holidays I have gained 9 lbs. OUCH!!!
I was completely bad I ate and drank whatever I wanted whenever I wanted.
I was at home with the kids quite a bit we made chocolates, fudge, candies cakes, shall I go on......... and guess what I sampled them all. Oh, I almost forgot to tell this part, I have a son that is 3 and he loves marshmellows so we made dipped in chocolate marshmellows with red food coloring to be festive and candied sprinkles. I even ate those, I was so BAD.
But , here it is a new year I started working out at the gym again yesterday and I'm pretty good for a while I'll go everyday and not just to lose weight but to be alone.
I'm going to start the master cleanse this weekend and order another round of HCG, and hopefully I will be back on track.
HCG works but you have to stick with it.
Happy New Year ladies!!!
Good Luck
Sherry

Sherry, Welcome back!  I also indulged over the holidays and regained 6 lbs. I resume Phase 2 when I returned home and I'm within 2 lbs. of my LIW so I'm relieved. You are so right about following the rules! I had every intention of following them but I'm not as good when I'm away from home so it was a double whammy. Next time I'm on Phase 3 (after I meet my goal weight) I plan to be good as gold because I'm serious about resetting my metabolism. Keep in touch and let us know how you do in the future! Carla |

Ladies,
So, I started the master cleanse this morning. WOW! That's all I have to say about that. I think I might have put to much cayenne pepper. WOW!
Kathy, how long are you going to do the cleanse before you start back on the injectons?
Brenda, I'm so sorry to here about how things are going for you right now. I can't even imagine the feelings that you are having.
I do now when things are really tough and I don't think I can take anymore I try to go a day at a time and if that seems to much to handle because sometimes it is I get through an hour at a time.

Sherry, I have decided to stay on the Master Cleanser until my TOM shows up--probably another 10 days or so. I will break the cleanse for three days properly at that time and start injections and loading. I'm hoping that starting the injections 3 days into my TOM will shorten it. The last TOM went for a full 7 days and that hasn't been the case for me since my twenties--my norm is 4-5 days. We'll see.... It's good to hear from you. Kathy

Hi Kathy,
So, you're going to extend the cleanse a bit. I think it is a great idea to wait to start the injections and VLCD until after that TOM is over. I see that a couple of days ago, you were down 3.6 pounds to where you were when you finished your last round, how have you done in the last few days? Great, I hope:-) I am thinking that I am very thankful that I won't have a TOM to worry about. Later, Toni

Hello All,
I hope everyone had a gr8 xmas and happy new year. Though I haven't been on much, all of you haven't been far from my thoughts. The holidays and all the chaos during the season really was overwhelming. Well I am also guilty like Sherry, I have gained 7lbs since my LIW however I don't feel so bad because I know if not for the HCG the weight gain would have been much more and then some so I'm very happy and I notice that it doesn't seem to be a true gain either because as far as my body I still look the same.
I have to catch up on all the posts because I haven't had a chance to go back and read. I am very excited to get back on track and I hope that everyone is psyched to have a wonderful up coming year, I know I am. Well happy losing to us all going forward.
Alisa
