beginning of day 3
another 2lbs down...that amount of lemonade is the least amount you should drink...if you feel hungry you drink more....I'm havin a hard time drinking the 60oz so I don't want anymore...you're also drinking herbal tea twice a day and should still drink additional water...thats alot for me....I'm floating by the end of the night...just got up to day 3 and I feel fine....so far the hard part is the salt water flush..couldn't get it down so I just drank more herbal tea, which is an option....

oohsofly,
How do you get past the need to chew? I'm fine, a little hungry, but the main thing is i just feel like i need to chew something.
I just had some of the tea and its actually pretty yummy!

Ice. Although be careful, because that "need to chew" sensation can be a warning symptom of anemia.

CUGreekgirl...I bought these oriental flavored chewing sticks....I have a gum addiction and I work with people alot and I have an obsession with fresh breathe so I bought the peppermint ones...a veteran cleanser told me to chew on the lemon peels but that seems to intense for me....are you doing the salt water flushes??

I haven't done the salt water flush yet. I plan on doing that in the morning, since today was my first day on MC. I think I'll be able to do it, i'm pretty good at swallowing gross stuff (ok, that really didn't sound good, but you know what i mean)

Last time I checked, this was the CHIT-CHAT forum on a PUBLIC message board, not the "ohhsoflydelta" show. Are we having security issues, that maybe someone could answer a question with a valid answer besides you?? 
Plus, I think it's important for her to know that the "need to chew" could be a symptom of a serious problem.

that salt water flush was the hardest thing for me. I did it the first day, but after that I would just gag from the smell. do those laxative teas work just as well?

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....
