I have started eating pretty much raw frutis and vegies. - for the last three weeks, I guess. I notice that I feel better and I have had fun making different things. I do use tofu and a few other things, but it is a good start for me.

I am trying this cleanse to clean out and hopefully feel better - not to mention loss some weight to go along w/ my new healthy eating!

Can't wait to see how this works for me! I have high hopes!

I am starting tomorrow, I've drink my tea tonight and have been mentally preparing the last few days to be ready to start. I can't wait! :)

Hubby feels a ton better after mint tea!!!! YEAH!!!:thumbup:

I can't wait till tomorrow! Every day removed from Diet Coke he is, the better he is going to feel!!! :p

Congrats girls! I hope you guys have an easy go of it! If at any time you feel like you can't hack it... ask yourself if its a detox symptom, if it is, just know that it will pass! If your body is really telling you to stop, then stop... But be sure to BREAK YOU FAST CORECTLY!!! Which is why I begged everyone not to attempt this without the book! So you'll know what to do..

Good Luck!!! Just be Prepared and you succeed!

I need help!!!

I did the SM tea last night - it was okay, didn't really enjoy the taste of it, but I got it all down - I know I will "grow" to like the taste though.

This morning did the SWF - not no where near as bad as I thought it would be. Although drinking that HUGE bottle full was KILLER!!!

I haven't YET to get down my Lemonade mix. It tasted okay, UNTIL I put in the pepper - now it is TOO HOT!!! It just burns the whole way down. Has anyone ran into this problem????

I know when I was at the health food store, I had to buy the pepper in bulk and there were two kinds of cayenne - well, the same thing, just one was hotter than the other - I must have gotten the REALLY hot kind.

What can I do??? Can I use less or what??!!

Other then that, I haven't felt bad - course, I haven't managed to drink much of the lemonade though.

Kathryn--- I need you!!!!

Thanks Kathryn!

Help!

My hubby has lost about 20 lbs.

I am back into my size 6 (with room too :eek: )

I did the SWF Sat. Sun. and right now - here at work!

I am so happy we did this! I can't wait to hear about everyones results! :)

Oh! My! Goodness!
 

That is wonderful results.Lord I will be the happiest girl on this earth if I can reach my 20 pound goal.

Hi everyone!! Sorry I wasn't able to post sooner but my grandmother has been sick and I've been taking care of her.

Anyway, hubby and I are doing the cleanse together!! It's so great to have him help me!! He's really supportive. We did the cleanse half-way over the weekend because we were at the hospital taking care of my grandmother. Hubby and I had the brew for breakfast and lunch and then ate hospital food for dinner and we both still LOST WEIGHT in those 2 days!! Jim lost 5 lbs and I lost 3.5 lbs (in 2 freakin days)!!! :D :D

But today, we are "officially" starting the cleanse with NO FOOD!! YAY!! I'm so excited!! :D

Day 1
 

Day 1 went pretty good. I didn't have ANY hunger pains all day but I did have a bad headache last night from caffeine withdrawal. I drink a lot of diet coke, diet snapple, diet sunkist and diet sprite. But other than that, everything was fine. I feel great today!!

Hubby had some cravings around lunch time because all the guys he works with ordered in lunch and he smelled all that food. But he had no side effects at all (unlike me).

So we're both on day 2 today!! YAY! :D

I am going to have to stop. I have a really bad kindney infection. Every time i drink one of the drinks it gets worse.

I am still going to stay off the soda and change my eating habits.

Good Luck everyone!

Hello everyone....,Hubby is on day 3 with eating 1x a day and has lost 3lbs. He claims there is NO way that he can go all day and not eat a single thing lol lol :D I'm starting my first day of the drink today...wish me luck.
Congrats to all those continuing the Cleanse.....and having great results.

I lost 6 lbs in 2 days!! Wooo hooo!! :D Hubby and I are feeling MUCH better today. No cravings for food and the headaches are gone!! :D

Checking in with everyone... I'm on day 6 now! And so is mu husband! I am so proud of him... we thought for sure he was going to turn tail and quit on day three! lol But here he is!

I put on a size 8 this morning! :eek: I almost died!

Hubby has more energy than he has had in years and feels soooo good, he has lost that "bloated" look that men his age, 45, tend to get. That prego belly you see so much of... its about half its size! He was so full of it! its amazing what you carry around with you, clinging to your inner walls! And every time he emerges from the hallway his face is all lit up! "Honey!" lol

I just love seeing what its done for him... He'll be a new man by the time he is done!

Me, I'm just happy to be cleaning out all the toxins from the processed foods I have been induldging on the past couple of months... and preparing my body to go back to the raw... its soooo much better for my body and I thrive on it, my body is so much more ballanced on it, no upset, no pains, no trouble whatsoever, its wonderful! And my skin glows! I can't wait!!!!

How is everyone else doing?? Anybody make it past those rough first couple of days??? For most people its tough but for some... its not that bad at all...
