I was wondering... is it ok if I only drink 3 glasses of lemonade a day? Choking them down seems to be getting harder and harder for me, does anyone else have this problem? I have to slowly sip it and it usually takes me over an hour to drink one glass. I sip water all day as well and drink a cup of hot lax tea morning and night, so is a glass for b-fast, lunch, and dinner enough? I plan on going the long haul (30-40 days) so I just wanna make sure Im not harming myself by not drinking enough- Re: Too much, or not enough? soso

This is a reply to # 213,535I find the taste somewhat pleasant, but I've been finding that I want less as the days goes on. I've done the fast 3 times, and the best advise I can offer is to make sure you're drinking lots and lots of water so you don't get dehydrated. Maybe someone else can advise you on the lemonaie, but I know Harry B. gives guidelines in his book as to how much to drink.

This is a reply to # 213,536The first time I did the Master-Cleanse (14 days), I was only able to get down 4 glasses but drank lots of water... I think you should be okay, just make sure you stay hydrated. I'm starting 30 days today... what day are you on?

MoreThis is a reply to # 213,545Hey wags. So today is the start day? Cool. Glad to have you on board.
Today is day 9 for me but I feel like I am entering into a new phase of the MC, almost like starting over. I feel like I have been going though the motions physically but haven't got my focus yet. I haven't been doing my mental/spiritual work. Feel like that's about to begin. First thing is no TV. I haven't been watching much but I notice that it does detract from my spiritual focus.
Here's to us. Yay.- Re: Too much, or not enough? wags

This is a reply to # 213,550well, it's either today or tomorrow... was intending to start today, but just got invited to dinner with my bf (who doesn't know I'm doing this and would NOT approve), so may indulge in one last sausage egg and cheese for brunch, have dinner (and some wine, yum!) and start tomorrow!! Going for a full 30 (made it 14 last time)!! How long are you going, mm?? And how's it been so far for you re: th mental/spiritual? What do you do for that??
and that ACV thread cracked me up!!

This is a reply to # 213,555wags:
today is day 10 and i have never felt better. i was just reading the thread on exercise and i have got to say, i am exercising every day. now i already wrote that i love to exercise anyway...but i am doing it about twice a day. NOTHING CRAZY, but exercising like normal. i go for walks early in the morning (around 5am). after that i'll walk over to the gym in my apt. complex and do some stretching, light weights, push ups, etc. a blurb about dick gregory: he ran the whole time he was fasting. ran over a marathon. it is mostly mental, guys.
I FEEL GREAT!
i don't have a set finsh date. i am going to listen to what my body tells me. i went to a work-related function last night and wouldn't ya know...food. shrimp, cookies, veggies and dip...i had to sit there, about 4 feet from a tray of cookies, while i listened to the speaker. of course, i wasn't listening...i was smelling those damn rocky road cookies. i kept thinking how moist and gooey and sugary they would be...it was a true test but i passed. as soon as the lecture part was over, i left. while everyone ate, i left.
i am still thinking about those cookies.
i also have a family reunion this weekend. 3 days of eating, pretty much. i don't plan on giving in, though. i want to spend time with relatives i have never met before and get to know them. that's what the reunion is really supposed to be about, right? it truly is amazing how food runs our daily lives.
spiritually: keeping the TV off. lighting incense and candles. reading about fasting and fasters. treating myself well and gently. it's true...certain things really don't matter and you see that when you're fasting. there are things that are important and things that aren't. I am able to see the difference.
but i think i have a different situation than a lot of other MCers. I am not married, not really dating anyone. my roommate is hardly ever home...so, i have the anonymity. i don't have anyone to take care of but myself and that makes it easier for me.
talk to you soon.

This is a reply to # 213,535I have never been able to do 12 glasses. I drink a glass whenever I feel hungry, 3-4 times a day. The idea is not to let yourself get low, as you will if you do not drink enough lemonade. If you experience weakness or dizziness, drink more. Otherwise, I would say you are getting what you need, as long as you are drinking lots of water as well and staying hydrated.
Have a good one!
