Master Cleanse Oh My!!!

I started the Master Cleanse today from the book written by Stanley Burroughs. Organic lemonade made with organic maple syrup and a little cayenne pepper. I will go at least 10 days to clean the system out. A laxative tea in the evening and at night. Supposedly there may be a rude awakening on the third day which means your body is really flushing out the toxins and you feel like crapola. The next day you feel great after the gunk is flushed out and you are downhill from there. The third day is my golf day..... Hmmm we shall see..... FORE!!!!!!!!!!

Day One: Drank about 2 quarts of the lemonade today. Felt pretty good... hungry just a little bit. At the end of the day all of a sudden my lower lip got swollen so that I looked like Julia Roberts. First time for the herbal tea laxative. We shall see what tomorrow brings. Hit the bed early and may go kayaking tomorrow.

Day 2 and 3: Nothing unusual really as I practiced golf and then played on Sunday. Thought about food a lot but will trudge on with the process.

Day 4: Weird day. Felt a little weak and didnt drink much lemonade today. My body felt cold at night and I took the new herbal tea. Will see what happens tomorrow. Hopefully it will take effect.

Day 5 (morning): All HELL broke loose!!! I took the laxative tea the night before and started to feel my kidneys shake in the morning but couldnt take a BM. Then I took the salt water flush and damnnnnn that was nasty as hell!! In about 1 hour I was flushing that stuff through my system and got nauseous and threw up!!! Got a headache a little while after. Will see how I feel later. I may bolt this cleanse and shut it down.

Ended the cleanse and am now on orange juice for 2 straight days then on the next day will have juice, then fresh fruit then salad. Will be able to eat in time for Christmas.

Update: 2nd day on the orange juice but I got tired of the whole thing and had a smoothie. Then had my first real food for dinner a basic seafood soup with just chicken broth and shrimp, fish, few greens and scallops. Feel pretty weird and a little unsettled. Tomorrow brings another day......
