Gallbladder, liver and digestive tract flush that is... So far I have eaten a non fat breakfast and lunch. Then at 2p.m. I had to stop all eating and drinking altogether. I think I was surprised about the no drinking. I have done a couple of different fasts and cleanses in my day, none of which said I couldn't have some water. So it sort of goes against my natural tendencies. Gotta have water, man! But I am surviving. At 6p.m. it was time for my first saltwater drink. This consisted of epsom salt and water. Nasty. Nasty stuff. It has the most...horrific taste, really. I have drank saltwater for cleanses before but never epsom salt, usually i just used a sea salt or whatever. But wow, I don't know if there is really a word for it. Bad aftertaste too, but after a few minutes I didn't care. After that, I lost that urge to eat anyway. At 8p.m. I have to do my next saltwater. So far, so good. Then at 10p.m. i have to drink the nasty olive oil and grapefruit mixture and report straight to bed and not get up.
I am overcome with excitement of how this will turn out. And I am so happy with myself for not backing out and thinking..."oh next weekend, I'll do it next weekend..." It is like I seriously can't wait. I read Josh's blog again and it just cracks me up how he describes the next morning:
"..ended up having about 15 bowel movements (yeah it was bad....but oh so good)"
totally kills me. For now bree and I are going to finish our robinhood movie then get her in the bath, get me another salt water and then read some books before we retire for the evening. Classic...how many women my age hang out and do a gallbladder flush on a friday night??! That's how I roll, yo. Will update on how the process proceeds, ta ta for now.
