Weight Loss on MC

[TRH]

This was my 4th cleanse (20 day, and two 10 days). I had to stop at day 6 this time around. I wasn't hungry or detoxing. I simply could not drink the MC. This happened late into my 20 day cleanse, so I was a little surprised that it happened so quickly this time. I also lost far too much weight too quickly, 15lbs in 6 days.

Well tomorrow i will break my fast. I am at 124 pounds so I lost about 8 pounds on a 10 day fast!!! I lost more than I thought I would. So, I am right where I want to be (weightwise) give or take a few. So, I will report back and see how the transistion back to food goes, and if I can maintain at this weight.

Hope everyone is doing well.

I am amazed at some of the weight losses I'm reading about here!! I'm at the end of day 2 of my first MC. I weighed myself AM day1, and measured myself (arm, waist, hip, thigh). I am not going to weigh myself until the end. I'm 5'8" and I weighed 149 on day 1.

My husband started today and he weighed himself twice... he lost 3 lbs. BUT, he is really big. He tried to hide his weight from me, but I looked. He's 6'4" and he weiged 293!! So, he's down to 290 already, after day 1.

how long did you wait before starting your second cleanse?

Checking in... I'm finishing up my 16th day on my first MC. I usually weigh in the morning before my SWF and so far after 15 days I've lost 14 lbs. I've been nearly a steady 1lb a day since day 2. Hopefully it will continue as I need to lose another 15. Hope to shed 5 of those before I end after 21 days.
Then better eating and more exercise!! Good luck!

Woah, I planned on doing this for 10 days, and hoped also that my weight would go down to 100lbs on day 10, from 106lbs. But I've done this diet for only one day and today my weight is 101.5lbs! I'm scared, is losing weight this fast dangerous? My tummy is very nice and flat, maybe it was just gut contents and not that much weight? Should I worry?

I want to stay on the fast for 10 days because I have bad acne (I am 20, not a teenager anymore, should not have to deel with teenage problems like acne), my friend said this will clear it up.

Well, starting Day 18 and for the first time I weighed exactly the same as I did yesterday morning. I still don't feel completely detoxed yet so I will continue to day 21. Still sitting on a loss of 14.4 lbs.

For those who have done the MC before, or have just finished, I'm curious if you kept dropping weight during the days you were ending the fast?

I'm 5'4" and weighed in at 179 the night before I started (coming near the end of day 2 now). Like someone else mentioned, I've been in denial about weight. I think of myself as the thinner version and when I see myself in the mirror I'm shocked. My pre-kid weight was 130 and that's where I'd like to be, but I have had 5 kids and I'm not sure I'm going to be going back to that body, much as I would wish it!!

Checking in again. It's day 20 and I have lost 16.6 lbs so far. For reference, I was about 30lbs overweight prior to starting. I feel great and notice my pants aren't so tight, but still see a fat gut that I need to exercise to trim down now, but this is a great headstart! I've started an exercise routine that I hope to continue and lengthen after I finish (tomorrow).
Good luck!!
