Detox Diary - Day One - Being On Lemonade Diet
The day after Friday, 13th Jan 2006

Motivation : Curiosity about detoxification, camaraderie
This is day one for me..
06:45 EST
176 pounds, 5' 11"
..googled to figure out how many liters is a quart
1 quart luke warm water + 2 tea spoons of uniodized sea salt. Gulped one full quart down, didn't quite time it, but did down it pretty quick. This was a cleansing aid, as suggested by "Master cleanser" to cleanse the digestive tract and preferably had to be taken first thing in the morning, empty stomach. That 1 quart almost filled me up. I guess i will have to wait a while to have my lemonade.
..Lemonade
2 table spoon of fresh preferably oraganic lime juice ( approx half lemon)
2 table spoon of genuine maple syrup ( Dark Amber Grade)
1/10 tea spoon of cayenne pepper ( red pepper)
8 oz of medium hot or cold purified water
I had been making note of, and at times using, organic food at the local grocery store which has a small but growing section for organic foods. It tastes different and tastes good. I was surprised to find the amount of oraganic food related links that came up on google. Might be a good idea to invest in some upcoming organic IPOs. I am convinced. I decided to go oraganic for the lemonade diet and made my first trip to a total oraganic store.Danny's Organic. Loved it and it was just a bonus that there was a lovely young lady at the counter.
09:26 I am hungry. About time to get cranking on my lemonade..

Hurray!!! I made it! Today is my Second Detox Day. Yesterday was really really tough for me. I had headache several times and after 10:00 PM things went BAD! I felt like vomiting and headache was severe. I wasn’t able to open my eyes and was sensitive to lights. According to what reviews said it could be because of caffeine withdrawal. I had almost given up. I tried to have herbal tea but couldn’t even take a sip (and above all this I had cooked ALOO PARATHA and PULAV for Tulan). Finally I decided to go to sleep.
Today I woke up fresh. Morning intake of lukewarm salt water is a little torture for me. But no complaints! Lets see how rest of the day goes.
