Actually...I was thinking about just not eating anything else today. Start 'The Tea' tonight. Salt water flush in the morning. Glass of OJ in the am, drink lemonade during the day. Apple juice when I get home at night. And perhaps make that my fast. THen I won't get so tired of drinking the lemonade so quickly? I think I will try it.
Things I remember from last time:
drinking schedule -- (that still sounds kind of funny, hehe)
2 in the morning
2 at break
2 at lunch
2 at break
2 for supper
The Lemonade
--mix a double each time. Put ice in it, it will taste better! :) Drink lemonade when hungry. Drink water when having a craving.
--make all you need to get through the morning and afternoon, split it into 4 glasses, just the juice and the syrup concentrate, don't add water until you are going to drink it. Make your lemonade for dinner from fresh.
--Recipe for 2 shots: 1/4 C Lemon Juice, 1/4 C Syrup, Cold water, 2/10 tsp cayenne pepper. Only mix juice and syrup for concentrate to use throughout the day.
--Cayenne --take it separately with just a bit of water quick, then lick the maple syrup spoon. (after you mix the lemon juice with syrup.)
--4 lemons makes about 3/4 C of juice. You'll want to juice 1 cup in the morning for the day. And 1/2 cup for the evening.
--Times I'm hungry -- 8:00, 10:30, 12:30, 3:00, 5:00
MAKE SURE YOU DON'T SKIP ANY OR YOU'LL GET WEAK AND SHAKY!!
--record Moods and Symptoms or read about them to know what to expect each day --SO YOU DON'T QUIT!! :)
The Tea
--brew 'the tea' and leave it until it's cold. 8 ounces. drop ice cubes into it. It will taste better cold. Take it right before you go to bed - around 10:45pm.
--'The tea' will wake me up around 3-5am with bad cramping.
The Salt Water Flush
---SWF - try 2 1/2 tsp of salt to the big green waterjug (32oz). Warm water.
---SWF - lick the lemon between swigs. :)
--SWF will take about 2 hours to run through completely. So take it 2 1/2 before going anywhere.
--Chug the SWF and take a really long shower while it goes through. ;) Or make the lemonade while waiting. Be careful that it doesn't flush the wrong way *drinking to quick or taking too much salt.
