Not Doing Well....need Advice...please

[MC Rookie]

I officially started this cleanse on July 23 and was doing fairly well until yesterday (day 4). I noticed my energy drop and I was very light-headed. I stuck with the lemonade and water all day (as well as the SWF), but in the evening I went over the edge and bought soup at Whole Foods. I was only able to eat 1/4 cup of the soup and paid dearly for it during the night. When I woke this morning, I noticed that I have puffy bags under my eyes (sitting on my cheekbones) and feel like I have the worst hangover. Has this ever happened to anyone out there? I went back to the lemonade today but I'm uncertain about what I really should be doing. Any advice?

Sounds like the soup may have had a lot of sodium in it, perhaps some chemicals too even if you did buy it at Whole Foods.

You "went over the edge" with hunger or because you felt light-headed? Whenever we feel hungry during this cleanse, we can just drink more lemonade.

How are your bowels moving? I see you are doing the SWF in the mornings. Are you drinking the laxative tea before bed?
