It is hard to believe but i have made it to day 14 (including the ease out period of 2 days). In the end I have shed 17lbs and I have given my body and day to day existence the jump start it has needed for some time. I do not know many people that could go through this, but if you are determined to make a change then there is no reason why you cannot succeed. Like anything else in life, it is a matter of setting a goal that is challenging, yet attainable.
I first heard about the master cleanse in the summer, did some research and decided after Labor Day, when the kids are back in school this is what I am going to do. It was an interesting journey as I prepared my daily potion and ended each evening with an all cleansing salt water flush. I will not miss downing the salt water mixture and running to the john 45 minutes later each night.
Overall I am very pleased with the results as I have dropped some serious lbs. and have a renewed sense of energy in my day. the only thing that did not happen as I expected was the “cleanout” of my insides. Maybe I was not all that bad to begin with? Not quite sure but I am not going to stress about it. I have just launched a message board for master cleanse related topics here.
Now I am embarking on the first phase of the South Beach diet. I will chronicle my journey here with some hopefully interesting and insightful posts. A South Beach diet message board is also available here.
It is hard to believe seven years have passed since the fateful day when so many innocent Americans lost their lives. I remember every vivid detail of that day like it happened a few hours ago. I just got done writing my yearly email to an ex-coworker who I spent 5 hours in a car [...]
The remnants of Hannah sped through yesterday so the lousy weather provided perfect conditions to go and play in the 1pm tournament @ the dog track. Strong showing of 146 players and I was very happy with my play reaching 12th place and into the money. After eight hours I got knocked out [...]

The next time you are at casino and decide to cash in someone else’s chips or accept chips from someone as repayment of a debt…you’d better think twice.
I guess I always knew the chips are the property of the casino. If you find a $100 chip on the floor technically…it is not yours, it is [...]
Both kids home from school sick today…maybe taking care of them will take my mind of the fridge full of leftovers from the weekend. Nothing worse than opening the fridge and seeing a plate of steak tips just begging to be laid beside some eggs. Wife made coffee and there is 1/2 a pot on the counter. [...]
Labor day festivities including friends from out of town, days at the beach and beer boiled bratwurst are now at a close. Competed in the club golf championship this weekend. Qualified for the net division and unfortunately got eliminated in the 1st round. Had a blast playing golf with some great guys and look forward to next [...]
Tomorrow, the kids go back to school. It is one of those times of the year (like New Year’s) where you can wipe the artificial slate clean and make some resolutions that you can try and keep. The past year and a half has been both good and bad and I am aiming to focus on Q4 [...]
Day one in Vegas was good. Ended up playing quite a bit of cash poker leaving the tables ahead by a few hundred dollars. As always should have been much more but the swings of $1/2 are quite intense and losing an all in bet to a rivered flush put a dent into my profits. Played in [...]
Wow…it has been quite a while since I have posted. Bridgit and I were out in Las Vegas after my last post and it was quite the trip. I dropped the ball big time by not posting about it. We stayed at the Venetian, which by far is one of the most impressive hotels we have been [...]
We have all seen it happen. The guy(or gal) with pocket aces pushes all in after the flop, gets a couple of callers and is then forced to watch the river card crack another pair of aces. I had something similar happen last night. In my opinion, a bit uglier. I should also start this [...]
