So, today is Day 5 and I feel like I may be wasting my time and am turning to this forum for support and guidance. I have not been hungry at all for the 5 days, I have not been eliminating other than after the SWF. I know the point if this is not to lose weight, but I have not lost any!!! I do have more energy, but feel pretty bloated and am bored with this. I feel like it would be healthier for me to go back to eating healthy food - veg, fruit, fish, etc... i feel like maple syrup and lemons are not the way to a healthier me...please advice. By the way, I am a 5'3" 120lbs female. I'm drinking the 6 glasses, plus water, the lax tea at night and the SWF (Salt-Water-Flush) in the am. what should I do?
Thank you, Jessica- Re: Day 5 - feel like quitting, sinc... Zibby

This is a reply to # 914,999Don't stop. You've gone too far to stop. I only went to the bathroom once a day which is better than before the MC. Maybe change the type of laxative tea. I think that Alvita senna tea works better for me than Smooth Move. Also, up the cayenne. I did 10 days. Now I am doing Oxypowder . Really trying to cleanse and get regular. You may not feel really different but you are giving your system a rest. How's your tongue. On Day 5, mine was coated with white gunk. My sinuses got a less clogged too. Some things just take more time.

This is a reply to # 915,024Thanks for the tip regarding the lax tea. I already upped the cayenne. Before the MC, I would have at least 2 if not 3 BM's a day (i'm very very regular - i poop after every meal), so to not have any BM's except the ass pee after the SWF (Salt-Water-Flush) is tough, especially when I am supposed to be cleansing and detoxifying my body....
As for my tongue, it is not coated..my breath is not bad, my skin is still clear and I have no aches and pains (all symptoms I have read are normal during the cleanse). I guess I just keep waiting for something to happen and it hasn't yet...which is frustrating...at least I thought I would shed a few lbs even if they were only water weight...- Re: Day 5 - feel like quitting, sinc... #48688

Try upping your water intake. You may not be getting enough.
Shoot for half your body weight in ounce of water per day in addition to the lemonades.
At 120 lbs. 60 ounces would be the goal.

Stay the course!!
Boredom is a detox symptom. - Your making progress. Its not apparent yet.
Wait till your ship arrives at the other side before you decide if it was a good trip or not.- Re: Day 5 - feel like quitting, sinc... cocre8tor

Google AdvertisementThis is a reply to # 915,082Keep your head up Sweetie...most first timers don't make it to the fifth day! Give it time...trust there are some major changes undergoing in that machine of your's...keep in mind your life's habits may be different than the other people doing the cleanse, so you can't expect the same experience...
I myself don't have bowel-movements throught the day as well after the SWF...before going to bed, I'll get a nice lil' elimination. Mostly mucous, caniene pepper and lemon pulp...
Sounds to me that you take pretty good care of your body, so don't worry if you don't see any parasites!
