I had my Laksatee last night. I really like the taste of that stuff, shame of the effect it has on you.
I woke up this morning with agonising stomach cramps which lasted for about half an hour. I must have put my digestive system into shock, actually drinking something that didn’t have alcohol in it, as well as the fact that its a laxative.
Anyway, it’s a sunday and I didn’t have to time to do the saltwater flush as i had plans to go swimming with the kids, I didn’t think swimming and post-flush effects would be compatable so I thought I’d wait till after. I survived on just water till about 3, till i got home and then did the flush. God that stuff is disgusting. Thats’ got to be the worst part of the cleanse. 1 litre of warm saltwater, drunk as quickly as possible. It’s impossible not to gag, but it does fill you up. You feel stuffed for about half an hour, as it works it’s way through your system, until half an hour later, when you need to stay very close to a toilet for another hour or so. Gross!
I ended up not making the lemonade and just surviving on water all day. I kinda thought, the state my body is in at the moment, it needed a bit of a kick so today was just a water fast day.
I wasn’t too difficult, I’m determined. I even went out to the pub with a mate, and i drank soda water all night. That is a real accomplishment for me, anyone who knows me will no doubt agree!
Weighed myself at about 7pm - 143pounds. I’m taking that as my starting weight. I’m aiming for a stone this time, as I’m going for a bit longer than last time, during which i lost 11 lbs, before i put a couple back on. To all you skeptics out there, I stayed at least 7 lbs lighter than previously starting the fast, that was until Christmas!!
