Master cleanse / lemonade diet - day 9

Ok today is Day 9 WOW! I did my swf a little after 8am. I was moving slow this morning. Think I stayed up too late last night. The bad thing is I was trying to rush drinking the salt water. I stopped drinking to brush my teeth and then went back to the water I had about 1 cup left at the time. Gross alert! When I went back to drinking the salt water I vomited. Of course it was just water but that threw off my day even more. So I didn't start drinking my lemonade until about 10:30 am once I felt my stomach was settled. It's almost 1pm and I have only had 1.5 cups of lemonade. I think this will hinder me from reaching 11-12 glasses today. At least I'm not hungry and I've been tempted all morning. Poundcake in the breakroom, pumpkin bars in the news room... I just want to scream! LOL no really I'm fine. I'll check back later ant tell you how it's going.
Well I ended my day drinking my 10th cup of lemonade! So I did catch up. I again had senna tea just before bed! Well tomorrow is the last day and I am now thinking about the process of coming off the cleanse. I went to the grocery store and bought a bag of oranges and ingredients to make a vegetable soup. The first day after the cleanse you are instructed to drink fresh squeezed orange juice. Then later in the day eat oranges. So I'm prepared for that. I'll talk more about the veggie soup tomorrow!

Master cleanse / lemonade diet - day 8

Day 8 and two more days to go!!! I woke up at about 7:20 am because the senna tea was working from last night. I had my swf  and was having my first lemonade in the 9 o'clock hour. I realized you use a whole lot of water with this diet/detox. I need to go refill my four of my five gallons tomorrow. Today I am again prepared to be out all day. My thermos is filled with enough mixture to make 8 lemonades. I'm still pushing for 10 glasses. I'll be back later!
So it's about 11:30 pm now. Today went smoothly. I had a break in my day where I had a chance to relax and do some reading. I had six glasses of lemonade by 4pm. While at my night job I took  advantage of down time to make a lemonade so at about 6 pm I had two and at 8:15 I had another two. When I got home I had another lemonade just before I had my senna tea. So I that was a total of 11 lemonades today. I'm feeling good and thinking about the steps to coming off the liquid and moving back to solid food. I'm glad that I haven't been real hungry but I am missing food. The most annoying part of the diet/detox is having to use the bathroom so frequently. Well I'm saying goodnight now. Talk to you on day 9!

Master cleanse / lemonade diet - day 7

Day 7 is going great! I got up at 7:40 am running to the bathroom thanks to the senna tea. I did the swf without much difficulty. The salt water is getting easier to drink and my eliminations are coming quicker which is a plus. It's hard for me to get out of the house for work in the morning when I'm not sure if I'll need to eliminate again before I make it to my destination. I had my first lemonade at about 9:30 am. This is the earliest that I have started drinking my lemonade yet. I have my thermos with 16 tablespoons of lemon juice and maple syrup.
I bought two bags of organic lemons at Walmart Supercenter last night surprisingly they were $4 a bag vs $2.78 a bag for regular lemons. I am getting low on maple syrup ( both my husband and I are doing the cleanse) So I have to go get another quart. Everything is rolling well for me so far. My goal today is to increase my lemonade by one glass from yesterday. So I need to drink 10 glasses today. I think I can do it.
I'll check back in later.
I'm back and I made my goal of drinking 10 glasses of lemonade today. I had a little challenge though. One very important thing to remember about this detox/diet is you must plan in advance. If you plan properly you can be successful. So let me explain my challenge; I was excited because I got off work early today so I went home. I put my thermos in the fridge and forgot it on the way to my second job. I was distraught. In my purse I had two 20 oz bottled water, a baggie w/cayeanne pepper, a third of a bottle of maple syrup and two different kinds of herbal tea...but no lemons. I begged for lemon slices at a resturant and had enough to make two glasses of lemonade! Problem solved!!! So I just had my senna tea and I'm off to bed. Goodnight!

Master cleanse / lemonade diet - day 6

Day 6 has been the best day in all of my diet days! I got up at 7:40 am and did the SWF. I had the senna tea the night before and when I woke up it was already working. I had my first lemonade at about 10 am. So I finished four glasses by 2pm. I just sipped it every time I got hungry. Yes I am still a little bit hungry but once I drink the lemonade the hunger goes away for a while as if I just had a small meal. My energy level great I am not tired or dragging. I'm not sure how much weight I have loss yet but I will be weighing  myself to see. When I got to my second job the first thing I did was have two glasses of lemonade. This was my first day back from vacation and I was a bit worried about drinking so much and needing to use the bathroom but It wasn't bad at all. So I had a total of 9 glasses of lemonade today. I ended my night with a cup of senna tea. Come on day 7!

Master cleanse / lemonade diet - day 5

So today is Day 5; It has been much better than day 3 or 4. I actually made it to 6 lemonade's today!!! I had 3 eliminations. I spent most of the day indoors. I was a bit worried about making my hour and a half flight home and needing to use the bathroom. But I slept the whole flight. I was not real hungry throughout the day. I have met my halfway mark to 10 days!
