Hi there... I'm a "newbie" to this (and as evidenced by my other posts, just learning about everything).
IMHO, don't go for 2 days, go for 10! If you aim low, that's what you are going to hit. I was going to do 10, but have a business trip on day 11, so I am going to start breaking the fast on day 9 & 10 w/the juice & soup, so I don't shock my body when I have to eat w/colleagues on day 11...
I'm on day 3 of my first cleanse, and I feel good. the first day is the worst!! I would recommend starting on Saturday if you work a M-F job... I felt very hungry & even somewhat weak on day one and a little bit on day 2.
As far as mixing, I'm lucky enough to work from home, so I am flexible in this way.
For my wife, who is also doing this, I mixed everything at the beginning of the day... just did the math the best I could using a
quart measuring cup.
To make it easy, I did 50oz = 5 drinks
= 10 TBSP Lemon Juice
= 10 TBSP Maple Syrup
= 1/2 tsp cayanne pepper (although, these ended up being way spicy... I think I'm going to go lower on the pepper next time)
BTW Experts... Is it a problem to premix everything the night before???
Anyway jimmymac, all I can say from what I've learned so far on the boards is follow this strictly... be sure you take your laxative tea at night... do the salt water flushes (I do them every morning)

PS... you didn't mention the salt when you listed your ingredients. Seems to be an important (and effective) component. Be sure you get the right kind of salt.
