I am on day 5 (really day 3) of the 9 day program. Yeah, the cleanse days are tough and the egg at mid morning and mid afternoon definately helped me get through the day.

About exercising. I don’t really have much energy to do any heavy exercise (I am not much of exerciser to start with). The most that I do is 20 mins of walking per day. But yesterday on my cleanse day, I walked 45 mins. Yeah, I was a little shaky when I got home. I had the vile with a boiled egg and felt much better.

I am not much of a coffee drinking but I am still getting mild headaches on pre cleanse days and the two cleanse days. I weighted myself after the 2 pre cleanse day and 1 clean day and I lost 3 lbs. yeah!!! the bonus is that I am usually quite gassy and feel bloated quite often after I eat. So far on the 9 day program, I have not been feeling bloated at all. So Allyson, the Gas-X might not be needed!

Thanks Stephen for your blog. It definately very encouraging!

Not sure about the Gas-X, but I think it’s a good idea to just “stick to the plan”. Afterall, you’re paying for the program and it would suck to sabotage oneself.

I am just about to start the 30 day program and I am glad that I found your blog so that I know exactly what I am in for...this times 3. I am really excited though. One question though... are you allowed to take gassex or something like that to combat the gas of the isaflush? Allyson's last blog post..I won...

Wow. That’s going to be insane. However, I have to point out that during the cleanse, I was not very energetic after any hard exercise. It took me the rest of the day to recover. I was only good for MAYBE 30 minutes of easy cardio, or light weights. It is definitely not a diet that will make it easy for you to be able to do good workouts. It just doesn’t give you enough energy. At least with me it didn’t. This is the reason why I didn’t go past the 11 day. I had considered extending it because I had enough supplies, to 30 days, but after the miserable exercise performance, I just couldn’t continue because I knew that if I lost too much muscle, I wouldn’t be able to burn more calories normally.

The cleanse really tears your body down and makes it even MORE hungry, even though you’ve trained yourself to cope with it. That’s why I think that after I quit the maintenance, my body responded so well to my healthier eating and the exercise.

So if you need to cut out after 30 days, I wouldn’t consider it a loss. But take it as a new beginning with your thoroughly flushed out body, regardless of whether you hit the target 50 pounds. The number doesn’t matter. It’s just a bonus. Most importantly, it’s how you feel and conduct your eating and your exercise afterwards that is the important thing.

I usually eat my meal in the evening so I am eating with my family. But, I find that I am totally ravenous by dinner time. Maybe eating raw almonds in between my shakes will help.

I plan on doing the back to back 30 day cleanses until I have lost 50lbs. I am hoping my weight “releases” as fast as some of the inspirational stories I’ve read.

Thanks for your words of wisdom.
