I know what you're saying..she's getting married and wants to get skinny...well I'd be lying if I said I didn't do it for that reason BUT I also did it to see if I could do it (mind over matter) and to see how I would feel. I started the cleanse with my two girlfriends (one of them in the picture with me below) but they lasted until 5:30 pm on the first day.
THREE DAYS OF....
What you drink- 2 tbs Lemons, 2 tbs Maple Syrup, 1/10 Cayenne pepper and 10 oz Water and as much distilled water as you want.
Experience- The mixture wasn't that bad. I added to much Cayenne pepper the first time and that was a bit hot. It really cures your hunger pains.
FLUSH IT OUT....
So, the lemonade mixture breaks everything up and since you're not eating ruffage you need something to flush everything out...
Night Time- They suggest taking "Smooth Move" tea. It will "hit" you in 6-12 hours. You'll get a bit of a tummy ache when you're on the pot.
Morning Time- They suggested the Salt Water Flush (SLW) which = disgusting! It's 2 tbls of un-iodiozed salt in a liter of warm water. You have to drink the WHOLE thing. See the mixture is the same weight as blood so it doesn't go through your kidneys and straight out the other way...in about 2 hours. People swear by it but for me...it's the reason I only did 3 days. The mixture is so GROSS!
THE DIFFERENCE....
I lost 4 lbs, my stomach is flatter, my sense of smell went up 199%, my tongue got this weird white coat on it (they say it was the toxins), I was very relaxed not a ton of energy, I got a little cranky day 2, I did yoga and it was good, my usually have to wash my hair every other day on the cleanse it went 3 days with out looking like a grease pit, my skin was SUPER clear, the first time I ate something it was so weird to chew, the first time I drank something other then the lemonade mixture it was this refreshing overwhelming taste of goodness. DON'T go grocery shopping or be around any type of food because you'll start drooling. Overall it was a good experience. I feel that I'm on the right track to exercise and eat healthy for the summer!!
