Got it

Ok, I finalized the order with Amazon and got my bentonite and digestive cleanse. Hopefully that will get here within the next two weeks. None too soon, either, my period is going wonky again.

Herbal Supplements

Would you believe I haven't gotten around to ordering those supplements yet??? Inshallah, I'm going to do it today, right now in fact.

I intend to be hot and fine by this summer!!!!

About Day 7

Weight: 103 kilos

Yesterday didn't go well for me. I'd been eliminating less and less as the cleanse went on even though I'd been drinking the eight glasses of lemon drink and lots of water. Been doing the saltwater flush, too. I stopped losing weight. Towards the end of the day, I had a sharp drilling pain in my head that worsened if I moved and numbness in my lower left leg. The toxins were being loosened by my cleanse but weren't being eliminated properly. After researching a bit more and lots of thinking, I decided to go off the cleanse. As of rght now, I'm not on it.

I found out that I won't be dropping real waste at all on this cleanse, and lots of people said it, not just my mom. I need the bentonite to do that and the parasite cleanse. I ordered them yesterday.

I went off my cleanse with some orange juice. Later I had some soup. After awhile I had a little normal food. I felt bad about going off my cleanse.

This morning I feel awful! My body feels slow and heavy and I couldn't wake up. Just that little bit of food did that. I'm going to start eating only the things on the blood-type list I devised and when my stuff gets here, continue cleansing.

That's all for now.

Day 6 (cont)

Days left: 22

weight: 102 kilos


I went for my walk, went to the herbal store that I know of and now I'm back. There are bathrooms along the path I walk so I eliminated while walking. Halfway back, I managed to work up a good sweat. I felt really good doing the walk, no where near the amount of discomfort I usually feel. I was just incredibly thirsty. I'm going to try and continue walking inshallah.

Once my walk was done I was sooooo sleepy. I fell asleep in the car while waiting for the herbal shop to open. Turned out to be wasted time, since they have neither bentonite or parasite cleanse. Looks like I need to order those things online pronto. I need to start eliminating properly, seems I've reached a plateau in weight loss.

A few things I forgot to mention in the last post: food lasts much longer in this house now that I'm not eating. Also, type O's need to do strenuous exercise to remain healthy. I lead such a sedentary lifestyle, no wonder I'm such an unhealthy, unattractive person.

Ok, I'm going to take a nap.

Day 6

Days Left: 22

Weight: 102 kilos (haven't eliminated yet)


Well, I learned a few things yesterday. Number 1, I caLled my mom and found that she, too, dropped nothing but watery garbage on the lemon cleanse. It was when she combined it with psyillium and bentonite that she got results and dropped solid waste. Combining those with the lemon cleanse is called the Ultimate Cleanse. I'll be out looking for those things today, inshallah.

Number 2, I need to be exercising. This helps the elimination and cleanse process tremendously. I've planned to go for my 5 mile walk as soon as I eliminate his morning, inshallah.

Number 3, I need to be doing a parasite cleanse while doing this lemon fast...but I cant find the product I need. Also, after the cleanse I need to do a kidney, liver and gallbladder flush.

All that is part of the cleansing process. In my quest for overall, long-term health I researched eating for my blood-type yesterday and came up with a list of foods suited for my O+ blood type. A LOT of the junk I eat isn't on that list. And a LOT of the foods on that list aren't in my diet. As well, I need to be doing the water cure, which is drinking half my body weight in ounces of water a day.

As far as the cleanse now, I finally managed eight 14oz glasses of the lemon drink yesterday, and I drank as more water than the previous day. Also, I've noticed that my sense of smell is sharper and I'm not running to bathroom uncontrollably anymore.

So those are the things I can and will be doing on my road to healthy hotness. More later, inshallah...

Day 5 update

Days left: 23

Weight: 102 kilos

I eliminated a bit, but not all. Even so, you can see that I dropped some weight. I feel like there's a big load waiting to be dropped...hopefully I'll drop it sometime today.

So, all in all I've gone from 235 lbs to 224 lbs in 5 days. Not bad! Inshallah things will improve further.

Wonder how B's doing???

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....

Day 4

Days left: 24

weight: 105 Kilos


Well, it seems to be going easier. Yesterday I only managed five 14oz glasses of the lemon drink, but I drank more water. The cravings nearly did me in. I found myself looking at pictures of food and drooling, literally.

I've noticed that bodily odors are greatly diminished now. I wonder if I'll get to a point where I'm fresh-smelling and craving-free. Probably. The best way to tell when your body is done cleansing is when your tongue is nice and pink and clean. During the cleanse it gets all white and tacky looking. Mine is white right now. I've read the for first timers, the pink tongue can take up to twenty days to reach on the cleanse. So my goal of 28 days seems reasonable. Also, I'm concerned that I don't eliminate much after the saltwater flush except the water. I read that this is usually the case for meat and dairy eaters for the first few days on the cleanse. Adding more salt to the water should help with that. Well I added more salt this morning and so far nothing much has come out. My crap must really be impacted in there.

Anyways, I'm glad to see I dropped another kilo. I feel lighter, and a teeny bit healthier than I did before; no more heartburn and overwhelming fatigue. I slept better last night, too. Wonder how much weight I'll lose by Friday, inshallah? I can see how I compare to B, lol!

I'm out to buy more clease supplies....

Day 3

Days left: 25

Weight: 106 kilos


Well, yesterday went a lot better than the first day. I made a conscious effort to drink more water. It was weird, I kept hearing all these rumblings in my stomach anytime I drank the lemon mixture. I read online one account of someone drinking their lemon mixture hot, as well as their salt water flush in the morning. I drank all my lemon mixtures hot yesterday and they went down muuuuch easier. The salt water flush this morning also went down a lot better. It was more like drinking soup. The first day I only managed four 14oz glasses of the lemon stuff, but yesterday I managed six. Hopefully, today I'll mange eight.

I lost some weight! Only a kilo, but that's 2 pounds! I can see it, too. My waist is smaller and my stomach. Hope this keeps up. The kid came in my room this morning with a plateful of beef stroganoff that was dinner last night and I wanted to scream, no lie. The smell lingered in here long after she'd gone to school, too.

Well, SO FAR SO GOOD. I'm sleepy, though. Hard to get a good night's rest when you're going to the bathroom every minute.

Day 2

FUCKING HELL!!!! Drinking a quart of that heinous saltwater is absolutely NOT how I like to start my day!!! Oh, God I'm so unhappy. I want food so bad. The maid's out there grilling chicken burgers and they smell soooo incredibly good.

Well, I got 26 more days to go. Please, God. Please let me make it.

Hubby isn't helping the situation. He is in flat disbelief that anybody can live off this lemon cleanse for any length of time and be ok afterwards. I assured him I'll be fine inshallah.

I really hope I will be.

Day 1 cont.

If ever a prison is looking for a worse punishment than torture or death...let them have their inmates fast and then set them around food. Allah is my witness, the smells nearly drove me insane, today. Every cell in my body cried out for salty goodness, food, ANYTHING but those sickly lemon drinks. But I stuck with it. Nearly wet myself on a student's driveway due to all these extra fluids, but I made it to the bathroom.

It's now 10 pm. I've been up since 4 am. I'm tired, cranky and headachy. I drank the minimum amount of the lemon drink. I didn't drink nearly enough water. As a result, my body horded all the water it has in fear of dehydration. End result: though I ate nothing today, I'm 2 pounds heavier than I was this morning.

I'm feeling very discouraged as I sit here sipping my herbal laxative tea....especially since there's good Spanish chicken and rice sitting in my fridge...and hubby bought me a strawberry smoothie from Baskin Robbins....god, that was the worst....however I shall maintain this fast for 28 days inshallah, so help me god!!!

I'm out.

Enough is Enough, Dammit! (Day 1)

Well, I weighed myself this morning. I'm back to 107 kilos. That's 235 pounds. Ridiculous. I was at the mall last evening with a friend and there are so many nice clothes I'd like to buy! Plus sizes just don't have enough of what I like. And plus sizes usually mean plus prices.

So, this morning while chatting with B, I decided to do the lemon cleanse. I'm going to shoot for 28 days inshallah, though it can be done for 10 to 40 days safely. We'll see how much weight I lose and how much healthier I get inshallah.

So at 235 pounds, I need to drink 117 ounces of the lemon drink. The cup I use is 14oz, so I need to drink 8 of those. So far I've drunk 3. I'd have drunk more by now (1 pm) but I was tutoring.

This morning it was sooooo hard to go through with it. I'm always so hungry in the morning and I wasn't sure if I had everything...I kept telling myself, yalla tomorrow or the day after you can start. But then I also kept telling myself no, if you postpone it, you wont do it. Look what happned with my walking. I left off for a few days and boom. I'm not walking anymore. I know it's going to be maaaaaaad hard for me to smell food or see it and not have any, but I really need to do this inshallah.

I need to also find out if the lemon cleanse can be done in conjunction with the liver flush. More later inshallah!
