Day 5

Days left: 23

Weight: 104 kilos


And that weight assessment was before i eliminated for this morning. Pending that, I may update the blog entry.

As happy as I am about seeing the kilos dwindle, I know I'm not drinking enough water yet. If I could drink more water and lemon drink during the day, the cleanse would go a lot better, I'm told.

Exercise also helps the cleanse process along. I've been feeling like I want to walk, the problem is I just never have time. So today I did a few minutes on the bike to see how I'd feel. For starters, I wasn't panting for breath after 30 seconds like I normally would be. I was able to go a whole minute without breathing hard and at a fast pace. I also did some stretching and some minor weight lifting.

I stopped because I'm feeling a little dizzy and lightheaded. It's because I haven't eliminated this morning's saltwater flush yet, and whatever toxins its released are still in me. The flushes are taking longer and longer to pass through me, too, as they pick up more waste. I read that between days 4-6 tapeworms, pinworms and roundworms will begin to be present in the stool. A prelude to the larger worms that will be passed later on in the cleanse. I soooooo don't want to see any parasites coming out of me. I'm really afraid of that aspect of the cleanse. But I said I'd do it and I am. If I stop now, it will all have been for nothing. And I'll still be unhealthy. I haven't even begun dropping solid crap yet and already I feel better. Once i start dropping logs of solid putrefying waste, I'll feel so much better than I do now....

I'll be so glad when my 28 days are over! I'm still craving food....
