Hi everyone,
Well, i started the colonix programme last Friday and I'm on day 4 now. It is too early to talk about me quitting now, lol. However, I'm not findiing it easy. That is, the diet part really and my toileting isn't going so smooth either.
Well, i am going to the toilet, having five bm's a day, so far, just waiting for my fith tonight. However, they are not full bm's and I'm not emptying completely. Not thoroughly anyway. What I'm mainly seeing is just pelelt of black really. Sometime I see a whole mass of black and have done since day one. I did, this morning (day 4) see something grey in with the black. However, I'm not emptying well either though, I do feel completely full after eating most of what's on my plate. I must say, I've not be bloated once during this programme. In fact, I've been hungry most of the time to be honest but, I'm not eating constanlty to get rid of the hunger though, may eat a piece of fruit here and there.
My diet is going OK rreally but, I'm getting no suppoort off my parents at all so, it's difficult to be completely strick with the evening meal, despite it being much easier at breakfast and lunch times. Mum knows I'm lay off the sweet puddings but, she still instists on asking if I want desert when I don't. My cooking for myself at lunch times isn't going as easy as I hoped, lol. So, making mess of things there. Yes, with all this in mind I have been flagging a bit, wonder how much longer I can kept it up really. I can't quit right now, it's too soon. I just thought I'd sound off here and, to see what views people had about my toileting. Whether it's working based on what's coming out of me?
I'm on the first five days 2 paranil capsules, half colonix fibre measure, did start off 2 minutes stooping the kleri tea bag, went up to 2:30 secs, tonight it'll be three minutes.
I don't think the measure I'm using are strong enough for me. I seenm to be passing reluctantly. I'm looking forward to getting to day six and increasing the measures.
thanks for listen to me anyway :)

Hi Justin,
Good for you for taking your health seriously!!! I know its hard to adhere to a strict diet. Im trying to get myself psyched up to do an orange juice fast. I think you need to stick with it. It does get easier. Try really hard to stick to the diet knowing it will pay off and you will feel better. I have not done the cleanse you are on so i cannot comment on that. I only wanted to give you encouragement.
GOOD LUCK

Hi Pattiecake!
thanks for the encouragement. I'll try and keep with the cleanse for as long as I can. the food/diet part is quite difficult as, avoiding all processed food can be hard in this day and age, when, I can bearly tell the difference. I can avoid all the obvious bad fod and drink so, that isn't a problem, it's just the pre-packed salad's that I think I'm meant to not have a well. it's good that I can still have wheat and dairy. If it was a totally strick detox plan, I know I'd find that too hard to do. Just a bit disheartening when my bm's, although 5 a day, are just not full ones. It's a very slow beginning.
well, things'll look better in the monring.
thanx :) Justin

I'm starting my 3rd week, and you are already having better results than I have had. So don't give up.
I drink WAY more than the minimum recommended amounts of water, I eat very healthfully, I take my Paranil every morning, then the fiber drink, and then probiotics. And yeah, I think I'm having LESS bm's than I was before, and the ones I have are significantly smaller. Every night I steep the tea for 6-8 minutes, and I NEVER have to use the bathroom in the morning. Though I do have to get up to pee 20 min. after I drink the tea. I also get really naseous every morning a bit after I take the pills and then have the fiber drink. Its terrible, because I feel so sick I can't eat anything else for at least 3 hours. And I'm only taking 3 paranil instead of 4 because some people previously posted how 4 made them feel sick...well 3 makes me sick! Ugh!
So, you are doing fabulous compared to me, and I've yet to throw in the towel. But I do have to say, if I get to the 30 days and nothing has happened, I'm sending my stuff back. B/c so far, it def. has not been worth the 160 bucks! Well, keep us updated on your progress.

This is a reply to # 458,796HI Vanessa, oh i would have given up long before you in those cercumstances, lol. That sound really tough.
Yet, I'm about to feel very foolish for what I'm about to say. That is, I'm giving up after today. Yeah, I know, only five days and I'm throwing in the towel.
Well, knowing exactly what to eat and avoiding all processed food is a pain, especially when I really don't know what I should be choosing. Living with my parents, that ain't easy due to us having dinners together and their food choices are good, very good but, not cleansing good, lol. Plus, I've got no support from them at all.
However, that's not all. I think I'm really messing up with the fibre solution. i'm finding that half the stuff i put into the juice has already stuck to the glass before I've had a chance to down the drink. Yes, I'm drinking very quickly and I'm not hanging about at all. This has happened to my everytime and, it really all should be going in me.
OH, I know, how weak am I, lol. i have been stressed over this to be honest and it's made me a ton more unhappy so, I'm sort of fed up with it now. Especially being hungry most of the time, despiting eating properly.
OH well, I should have thought more about this. I'm still changing my diet though, I'm keeping the probiotics and will go back to the aloe vera drink.
Sorry about that everyone, it's a real shame and I assume it's been doing some good but, I can't see anything that's encouraging me, pushing me on to continue.
all the best,

I live with my fam. too. I know meals suck and all, and my family eats totally unhealthy!
But seriously, you should give it another week. I make my fiber drink with apple juice and some peach slices or two strawberries. ITS SOOOOO much better. You totally HAVE to use a blender. I tried just mixing it once and the result was disasterous! Plus, I know avoiding processed food is hard, esp in this day and age. But I just eat fruit for breakfast, or a muffin (i make them myself, so its not too much added crap). I eat something for dinner, always have a sweet potato, WITH butter. I mean, alot of diets are just terrible, and the guidelines are really for people with the standard Western diet of burgers and fries every day. You know? I eat peanut butter and applesauce, and stuff like that. Salad dressing on salad. I just make sure its like oil and vingear or something. Oatmeal is also a good thing to have for breakfast (or any meal). OH- and I def. have not given up chocolate. Its too good. I just eat dark chocolate (better for you) and try not to eat too much of it.
Well, if you decide to quit, good luck to you on the other stuff. But maybe some of my suggestions will help you. I know its tough living with the parents, mine think I'm crazy for doing this. but I just pick and choose what I will eat out of what they make available. I mean, I'm not gonna eat the cheese covered potatoes and greasy food they make. So I'll just bake a regular potato and have plain chicken or something too. I just make sure to do it so I can sit down and eat at the "family meal" at the same time.
Good luck! I hope you stick with it.
