Between the lemonade formula, the herbal laxative tea and the SWF (salt water flush) this cleanse tends to dissolve and liquefy most everything left in your colon when the bulk of fecal matter is eliminated after the first few days, reducing the toxic eliminations to mostly watery stools (butt pee), some days brownish in color, other days semi-clear. So don't worry, everything is ok. 

The stubborn mucoid plaque is much harder to dissolve and takes a while to break up and/or break loose. Pieces of that may occasionally show up in the watery elimination along with occasional strings of mucus, bile and other toxins that have been dumped into your colon by your organs. There is little predictability as to when or how much of this will be found in your stools as it is different for everyone. I am going to quote some excerpts from a few of my earlier posted experiences. Caution: not for the squeamish!

Quote:

Forgive me if this gets a bit disgusting and gross, but I haven't found another way to explain...When the toxic encrusted fecal matter starts to peel away from the colon it often does so in large chunks or strips. These often get stalled on another obstacle or a kink in the colon, and form a jam, much like a log jam.

This happened to me after about 9 days on the cleanse, and by day 10 it had been a couple days since I had any movement other than a trickle of brown water. I drank two 1 quart SWFs in less than 5 hours and that did it, the dam started to give way. A series of movements happened over the next day and a half, and the most disgusting foul crap imaginable was about to be flushed to oblivion.


And from another post... 
 

Quote:
My BM's were brown & liquid for the first 9 days. On the 10th day (not for the squeamish, I'm going to be graphic here) I passed a black tar-like substance 3 times during the day. It separated completely from the water as if it couldn't be dissolved and had an extremely foul odor. Similar to strips of rubber some of these pieces even retained the shape of the inside of my bowel. Today (the 11th day) I started with another of these tar-like movements followed by a series of BM's which were mostly strings of thick mucus. I believe we tend to encrust a lining of fecal matter on the inside of our intestines and that it may include heavy metals and other toxins that are normally hard to eliminate. This cleanse does exactly that. Breaks this encrusted fecal matter (mucoid plaque) loose and with regular BM's it is removed from our systems. I am determined to continue until this elimination is complete and my tongue indicator is clear.

Hope this helps!

I am at the end of my 3rd day and did the swf 2 hours ago.  Absolutely NOTHING happened...not even a BM or water or anything
Anyone else have that experience (or lack thereof?)
It's very discouraging and I hesitate to try it again.

I have had this happen a few times where nothing came out after a SWF, and I wait about 4 - 5 hours and then do another SWF. That has never failed to produce results.

In his Master Cleanse booklet Stanley Burroughs says: "The salt water has the same specific gravity as the blood, hence the kidneys cannot pick up the water and the blood cannot pick up the salt. 

     This may be taken as often as needed for proper washing of the entire digestive system.

     If the salt water does not work the first time, try adding a little more or a little less salt until the proper balance is found; or possibly take extra water with or without salt. This often increases the activity. 

     Remember, it can do no harm at any time. The colon needs a good washing, but do it the natural way - the salt water way."

The cause could be congestion or a kink in your colon perhaps, I'd keep my faith in the cleanse and stay the course. Unless you had a pre-existing condition this will likely eventually resolve itself.

If there is pain that continues for more than a day or so, consider consulting with a trusted health care professional.

Hi Vegeman,

First of all I want to thank you for all your amazing posts. I completed 14 days of the Master Cleanse a few days ago, and reading this forum several times a day was invaluable support! I started out at 145 and ended at 128.5 for a total loss of  16.5 lbs! I felt so great, full of energy and so light and clean on the inside and out.

Now, I'm dealing with the ease out. I'm on my 4th day of the ease out and I've found it to be much more challenging than the cleanse itself. The first day is supposed to be just OJ and water...I felt so faint, I had zero energy and felt like I was about to pass out...I had to have the veggie soup for dinner the first night. Also, since then I've been feeling SO weak. Weakness in my legs and arms especially. I've never experienced anything like this before...any idea what could be happening here?

Also, I'm really worried that I havent had a BM in over 2 days. I had salad and soup yesterday in addition to the OJ. Today I had OJ and water for breakfast, a cup of blueberries and strawberries with a little almond milk for a snack, broccoli and carrots with a small serving of  fish (snapper) for lunch, and a smoothie for dinner. All this is sitting in my stomach, no BM's whatsoever. Is this normal? What can I do? Should I go back to doing the SWF?

Thanks so much in advance for your help.

I would assume you're having a hard time re-establishing a good intestinal flora after breaking off. The cleanse and especially the SWF eliminates all bacteria in the colon (both good & bad), and that is why great care must be taken while breaking the cleanse; to give the beneficial bacteria a chance to reestablish themselves (some people have a harder time than others) and provide you with a healthy intestinal flora before ingesting solid foods.

I would recommend a good probiotic formula. Click on THIS LINK
 
Hope this helps...

thanks for responding!

I am taking a probiotic at the moment. This is the one I am on:

http://www.iherb.com/Now-Foods-8-Billion-Acidophilus-Bifidus-120-Capsules-Ice/1145?at=0

Perhaps I need to take more? Right now I am only taking one capsule per day. In the morning on an empty stomach. Maybe I should go up to two per day? Also, would you suggest that I go back to just liquids and salad until more good bacteria establish themselves in my intestines? And will any of this help me have a BM? I've been drinking my Smooth Move at night to no avail...I am beginning to get worried

Thanks again

I would discontinue the Smooth Move at night, it may cause a dependency when you're not on the cleanse. It's purpose on the cleanse is to stimulate peristalsis when there is an absence of any solid food. With a proper intestinal flora your food should provide that stimulus.

I would increase the probiotics (or switch), and going back to just liquids and salad (and brothy soup) might be a good idea, at least until you become regular again.  Also try taking the probiotics two times a day, taking two capsules on an empty stomach in the morning and one in between meals later in the day. The best supplimental probiotic formulas are relatively expensive but they include elements that insure they make it all the way through the stomach and small intestine, reaching the large bowel. You may also consider the addition of yogurt, miso, tofu and/or sauerkraut to your diet, which provide a good base for the good bacteria to grow.

I hope this helps...

tonight is my 8th night on the cleanse. i did the ease in as well. this is my first ever cleanse.
i havn't passed ANYTHING except brown water the entire time. tonight i took the SWF and within 7 minutes started having movements. I eat organically, but i don't necessarily eat healthily, so i know there MUST be stuff inside me! why isn't it coming out? is it that i'm too young and nothing has built up yet? (i'm 24 y.o.) 
another reason i think i'm still full of toxins is that my skin is still breaking out and i'm very low on energy. 
should i continue past day 10? or do more SWFs?

Hi Diana andSmiley,

     As it says in the opening post of this thread: "Between the lemonade formula, the herbal laxative tea and the SWF (salt water flush) this cleanse tends to dissolve and liquefy most everything left in your colon when the bulk of fecal matter is eliminated after the first few days, reducing the toxic eliminations to mostly watery stools (butt pee), some days brownish in color, other days semi-clear. So don't worry, everything is ok."
 
I would continue on, carefully following the instructions in the MC booklet, you probably have more toxins to eliminate. I have found the tongue (especially first thing in the morning) is a great indicator of the internal condition of your body. The heavier the coating, the stronger the elimination. Your tongue "indicator" can vary considerably day to day, when it has has a pink appearance and is clear of any coating for a couple days you can generally assume you're pretty clean inside.

One SWF first thing in the morning should be enough, unless you suspect a serious blockage.

For your skin try a  Detoxification Bath
