I'm on day 8 of my first fast. Everything is going really well right now. Days 6 and 7 were a little rough because of all the eliminations I was having, like 10+ a day! My bumm was so tender that I thought I might have to stop. I talked to my best friend who is a doctor and he suggested I use Balmex (for diaper rash). I tried that which helped and I also figured out that it was a good idea to take a shower after the
SWF (Salt-Water-Flush) and eliminations. That helped a lot to get everything clean.
I was re-reading the curezone cleansing FAQs and read about the heavy cleansing that takes place on days 7-8, I think that may have happened for me a day early and hence the heavy eliminations.
I absolutely love the lemonade, my body seems to crave it. I have been following the instructions in the book to the letter. I have increased the cayenne pepper to 1/4 tsp like the others have recommended.
I have been exercising daily except Sunday. I run 3 miles one day, then exercise (pullups, dips, pushups, crunches etc) one day, and then moutain bike 6 miles the next. I alternate between the three. I feel like I have lots of energy and I feel very serene. This fasting makes me feel really good.
I want to thank zoe, pepe and hapinso for your advice and everyone else for your encouragement. I'll keep you posted.
