Okay, so my brother and his wife were over at the house this past weekend and started talking up this "master cleanse" diet. Invited us to join them in doing it. It's pretty much all drinking this concoction of water, fresh lemon juice, organic maple syrup and cayenne pepper. Bad as that sounds, it really is not bad at all. I've lost 3 pounds in two days. You're supposed to not eat and just drink this stuff (60 oz. per day) for 10 days. Well, we're not doing that. We're eating lots of fresh fruits & veggies, cutting out the colas (well, mostly ... I'm still drinking some Diet Dew, but about 1/3 of what I was) and seeing what happens. I'll let you know if it amounts to anything by next Wednesday.
