damn...doctor, know it all, Queen of all things greek,...how does she find the time??? Me... security issues...comical...
ANYWAY

the tea isn't working as good as I know the salt water can but that salt mixture is the antichrist...I invested in a couple alternatives that I'm going to try...I talked to a pharmacist friend who gave me some ideas...I also believe that I will switch to the ceyenne capsules cuz the powder is giving me heartburn something awful....weight stayed pretty much the same but I didn't drink enough water today.....my hair stylist said my skin looked "refreshed" so I guess thats a good thing...I'm trying to decide if I should stop until Monday so I can use an alt to the salt water and the capsules or just to keep going....

Mine isn't going so hot. I started it Saturday, but slipped and ate some french fries with the kids I babysit for. Sunday was successful and so was yesterday. Last night I passed a kidney stone... at least I think thats what it was? I've never had one before but thats what it felt like. So this morning I didn't do the SWF and I drank OJ cause I needed energy after not having any sleep. THe rest of today I'm drinking the lemonade. The salt water flush isn't all that bad if you drink it slightly warmed. Just think of it as Chicken broth without the chicken. Drinking it at room temp was awful!

Unhappy

Sorry I haven't been around but my daughter has scarlet fever and has been in the hospital....she's getting better now (thank God) but I totally discarded the cleanse while she was in the hospital...so I'm hopeing to start back up by Thursday...I actually miss it and haven't been eating a whole bunch and I haven't gained the weight back..I'm making some minor changes once I start back...like using the capsules and this saline laxative instead of sea salt.....congrats to those moving forward and good luck to those beginning.....

Thank you!

This "cleanse" will do nothing but put your body into starvation mode! The weight you lose will be water weight and the longer you do it, the more muscle you will lose! In the end this only SLOWS your metabolism. Take adpiucf's advise and trash the crap, not starve yourself. (That IS what you're doing.)

If you've read the thread then you know I don't need to lose weight..I wear a 6....what I do need to do is give my digestive system a break from all the siht I was eating...and it wasn't all junk but the meats, the sugars, whatever...this CLEANSE is not a diet...some use it as that cool whatever, I however was and will be again in the next couple of days cleansing my systems so that my body will then be able to complete functions such as metabolize normally...cleansing your disgestive system along with kidneys and other systems has been attributed to correcting many health issues with this cleanses...many do it quarterly....if you don't agree with it do you...I will however continue to share my experiences with the "interested" GCers...I can say that I never felt that I was starving while cleansing, it was actually the opposite because I am not use to taking in that much liquid in a day...this cleanse has been around for pushing 50 years...its nothing new...the people who have taught me alot about it are the ones who work in the health food store where I shop and these people are your standard earthy raw eating nature freaks...most don't look like bathing on a regular basis is important more less the superficial body imagine BS....

to everyone who sent well wishes to little OOhsofly THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
today was her first day back at school....God is good...

Isn't this kinda like when anorexic people are recovering and they gain a ton of weight and then can't lose it? It's cuz their calorie intake goes down and slows their metabolism.

While most people do lose a couple pounds from the prep, it's mostly water weight, because you are dehydrated after a liquid diet for 24 hours followed by a gallon of laxatives...
About 3 1/2 years ago I lost 10 pounds from a colonoscopy prep.
