i did it mainly to lose weight, and i did lose about 4kg, but half of it probably really was water weight despite how much i wanted to believe otherwise before i even started. i gained it all back within a week or two because not eating for so long made me binge. it was worth it in that i did look slightly slimmer in time for my birthday party which is why i did it. i lasted only 9 days though. perhaps if i had gone longer i would have experienced the benefits. i really did not feel any health benefits, nothing was noticeable at least. i broke out in really bad hives on like the 8th day which was a nightmare because i had my party and everything. they say that your old problems flare up during master cleanse and then they go away forever, but i still kept getting attacks of the hives weeks or months after i finished it. unless giving up one day early really did make all the difference, but otherwise i’d say it wasn’t worth it. i did not cheat at all, oh wait i had like 2 cigarettes and some sugarfree mints on one occassion. but that’s all.

Takes a lot of time and energy and the cost might not even end up being much cheaper than store-bought (with all the nice jewellery chains these days), but it’s something really special to make a piece that’s totally original and only you have. Also, they make great gifts. I made my necklaces from vintage beads I bought off ebay and using magazines for inspiration. My friends get really excited when I tell them I made them myself.
