It’s day 9 and I feel great. Tongue is clearing up, skin is really bright and clear, body shape has shifted (down 9 lbs). It’s making me realize how little we really need to consume to be healthy and have energy I have felt amazing and haven’t wanted to pass out because I’m famished it’s been totally opposite, when I get really hungry I drink a glass of lemonade, now a few sips can satisfy me. I’m looking forward to eating fruits and veggies in a couple days but I’m amazed at how easily this has gone. I’m telling you people just get past days 1-3 and the rest is pretty smooth, I’ve isolated myself a bit which has helped haven’t gone out to any restaurants with friends or had kids or other people to cook for. I can imagine that would make it a little more tough but my skin and body feel great, I feel cleansed out and like I have a brand new engine in me that I want to make last and take good care of by putting in the right fuel and clean substances for as long as I can.

Well I’ve made it to day 8, I can’t even believe it. I feel really good, I actually had more elininations yesterday (day 7) and felt like a lot of toxins were releasing My skin is clearer than it’s been in years, I have a glow and radiance overall and everyone is saying, either “you look really beautiful” or “there’s something different about you”. I have also slept amazingly, with the exception of strange dreams and nightmares the first few days which I read is all part of releasing toxins. My tongue is still coated and I’ve lost about 7 pounds so far. I think I may continue once a week doing tea at night SWF in the am and drinking lemonade all day. It’s really amazing how easy it gets after day 3 or 4. Even though I’ve only lost 7 lbs which isn’t a lot in the big picture my body feels different like it’s 7 pounds of toxins and stuff that was just stuck inside me for so long so I’m noticing a difference in my skin texture and the way my body looks and feels. I say keep going people it’s totally worth it, I only had a headache one day and really after day 3 the cravings were diminished. 3 more days and I’m to the 10 day goal!
Well I haven’t blogged since day 3. I have to say day 1 and 2 were definitely the hardest those days I had all the cravings and wanted to cheat so bad, but I stuck it out. Day 3 I got my period, I was so tired already but had horrible cramps and didn’t want to take anything for pain it was really really hard. The hunger was less and each day I’m less hungry now it seems I have to remind myself and make myself drink enough lemonade. I’m still drinking the tea at night and SWF’s in the am. I even got a friend to try a SWF and it worked great. I think I will still do the tea at night and SWF if I eat a heavy meal or party too much one night it seems like a good way to clean your system out. It’s amazing to me how easy it gets after a few days not to eat and my skin has cleared up and has a nice glow to it, I can even see more clearness in my eyes. On the mental and emotional side it’s been interesting, having crazy hormones doesn’t help but I’ve been noticing feeling euphoric and like I can handle anything to having moments of self doubt where I rarely have a lot of self doubt, or feeling like I’m letting others down, it’s like the negative aspects of myself are surfacing, maybe like the toxins coming to the surface and escaping my body so are these negative thoughts and emotions and doubts. It’s just interesting to observe and feel. I noticed a lot of people mentioned mood swings and irritability so I guess this is all a normal part of detoxing and cleansing out. I feel like I can make it to 10 but I’m really looking forward to some fruits, vegetables, brown rice, just craving really healthy clean foods right now.
