Lemon Cleanse Official Day One

Last night I drank a cup of laxitive herbal tea. I don't like it much, but I managed to get it all down. Then I went to bed. This morning I drank one quart of salt water. It was gross. I put about a teaspoon of uniodized salt into my water bottle and added warm water then shook it up, plugged my nose, and drank. I couldn't taste the salt, but I could sense it. Ugh. Gross. I had to do it twice to equal a quart. On my very last swallow I dry heaved (disgusting, I know) and couldn't swallow it. But then about an hour later I went number 2 for the first time in a few days. Then I drank my lemonade all day. It was hard resisting food so much, but I've put myself through a few days of gross and weird things, might as well not give up. So tonight I'll make another cup of tea and go to bed! Yay!

Lemon Cleanse Day Three

I've decided to start over. I ate lunch today. But I had already decided that I was going to start over. I'm staring over because I am supposed to have been drinking herbal tea at night before I go to bed, starting the night before I start the fast. Also, I read it's pretty good to drink a cup of warm water with uniodized salt mixed in each morning. So today I went to Smiths and bought a box of laxitive Herbal Tea and a container of salt. Tonight I'll drink my tea with my nose plugged (I don't like tea very much at all), and tomorrow morning I'll drink my saltwater with my nose plugged, then drink lemonade all day. This means Thursday will be my first day and.. Saturday the tenth day. Sunday and Monday I'll drink only Orange juice. Then Tuesday I'll drink orange juice for breakfast, fruit for lunch, and salad for dinner. After that I'm supposed to be back to normal! I'm excited. Wish me luck. Tomorrow is my Official First Day of the Lemonade Diet.
