Good morning Day 3! I'm sitting here awaiting the effects of the SWF I did about an hour ago. I feel like it always takes awhile for that thing to hit me. Last night I had some wicked pizza cravings, but I managed not to give in! I took a walk instead and that pretty much erased any thought of food from my mind. It's funny how easily you can distract yourself from food... I know I just get so shortsighted with my cravings sometimes that I think the only relief is to just eat it! My goal for this cleanse is to go until June 1st. Hopefully I can do it!

KarenC- thank you for your words of support. Today's your Day 1, no? I hope everything is going well for you so far. I know you can reach your goal- just have to commit to it and stick to it!

It seems like a lot of others are just starting as well- Good luck to everyone. These first few days are the hardest but we can get through them together!

Good Morning Day Two! I made it thru the night with no eating, for me that is a huge step . Made a clasic mistake this a.m. and put two TBSP in my SWF quickly realized my mistake upon first drink, but it took two more drinks before I remade it lol. Now I have consumed the correct amount and am patiently awaiting the outcome. Hope everyone is having a better start than I

You are not alone - I screwed up my math this morning too - only didn't realize it until I "cleansed" the upper portion of my digestive tract happened that way before, the last time I miscalculated I just had a more "forceful" reaction down below. You would think I would know better by now - but nope!

It gets better... I also made my pitcher of lemonade wrong too! I make a jug in advance to take to work with me during the week (I know - fresh is better - but not practical) instead of 3/4 cup of lemon and maple I only used shy of 1/2 cup... I thought I was aiming for 1/4 cup and was being "generous" for my first day... I can't even blame it on cleanse brain since I just started! Oh well... soldiering on and admitting my foolishness for the amusement of others!

Hi Connie, I'm starting tomorrow too!!! I have been not doing good this year with the MC's, or for that matter any kind of staying on a more healthy lifestyle... but I am going to do it this time for 10 days & you will too!! Take care.

Yes - all about regaining control of the healty lifstyle and FEELING BETTER!

Well, today is my 1st day of MC, i am doing this as i have stopped smoking and am desperate to detoxify, i would also welcome any weight lose that comes along with it lol!

Yea! It will be worth it

So, morning of day 1 ...and finish up my lab work (when Excel will not let me enter the data I want to run, only the data IT wants me to run). ... But in the meantime, I need to be kind to myself as I try to get back in the cleanse mindset. Am actually hoping that the SWF I am doing right now will help GET me in the right mindset - how twisted is THAT?
Happy squeezing!

I'm right with you - and yes - Excell is stupid! Be kind to your self and we will be kind to ourselves too. I jumped into this yesterday morning when I said - DO IT NOW! It was planned-ish since January to do three this year, but not in ink so to speak for today. The minute I stopped to buy the lemons last night I felt better. Mindset is so very important and we will succeed!

Time to do some work!

day 4 almost coming to an end. it has been a roller coaster both today and yesterday up and down , funny how your mood changes almost immediately after eliminating hehe. have had some cravings - not really hungry per se - and the elimination / detox process makes me not want to eat at all! I was having thoughts of ending early, but after today, it is clear that this is only the beginning and there are many toxins to dig through!

Namaste

I had my laxatee this morning instead of a SWF as i was so scared of the "outcome" lol, i did have a small set of movements which were uncomfortable, however i know this is nothing compared to what i'll be going thru 2moro!!!!
Does anyone have any advice on ways to lessen the SWF experience, plse however small i'd luv sum advice x

So here I sit late afternoon on only day 2 and I am fighting cravings like one fights off an angry swarm of bees. I tried a walk, running errands for friends, and even cleaned my carpets. I have drank lemonades and water. LMAO what a day! I would crawl in bed and just pull the covers over my head, but I am not remotely tired. Oh well, the cravings are sure to die down or at the very least gone by tomorrow morning. Oddly I do feel a bit better by posting, yehhhhh. Well here is hoping your days went well. I will most likely check in later as everyone's posts tend to help me find a bright light at the end of the tunnel.

Hi, for sure we can be MC buddies... the more the better!!! Well yes i am on day 1 too, so this is the start of our journey in the wonderful MC world... getting our bodies & minds cleaned out from all this junk, (well for me anyway, lots of junk) But hang in there, you'll do just fine, sometimes it can be rough, & sometimes it can be full of easy days too... so just depends on our body. Have a great night & when we wake up it will be Day 2

Your doing great, just hang in there, drink some more... sure you did not want to hear that..., but when you get up in the morning, you'll be on day 3 & it could be a way better day... just get through tonight, you'll be fine!!! It does make us feel better when we are apart of the MC community So keep on posting! Take care, kc
