  • Thanks Alyssa… Oh my goodness…it’s past one and I still haven’t gotten weak or shaky yet. I’m so happy. I imagine I will soon, but lemonade tends to stregthen and perk me up. I made it into a slush today and it’s SUPER good that way! I’m actually ad…
  • DAY 9 I’m almost there! YAY! So glad. Alyssa I had a headached on day 2, I think it was. And I didn’t have any after that…hopefully it’ll be the same for you. :)
  • Meditating~ I may have to try the greens in the freezer trick sometimes. Altho’ I doubt I’d have the occasion to try it…greens around here are downed way too soon. We love greens. :) Emd of DAY 8…so glad to be almost done. It was a hard day because …
  • DAY 8…Feel good right now, but I know in the afternoon I will feel super weak again…but I’m ok. Looking forward to food, and more jollified food. The recipes here and everywhere else are getting me excited, lol. Meditating~ So it’s almost an MC blen…
  • Good for you Sabrina! I bet that food tasted good! :) Is this your first day off then? Or second? My memory fails me…I want to know that me having a salad and a little really juicy fruit will be alright on the 1st day off, as well as lots of orange …
  • Hey Amysue…we have an ultra violet light, reverse osmosis thing installed in our home… ...So much for saying I’m not weak…I am now…my legs are shaky and I have got so much to do and I’m SO tired…wahhhhhh! Ok, I’m done crying and will try to get a ho…
  • You two are funny…right now on my 7th day…I can’t imagine starting a night early…lol, I love it!!! But it’s going ok…today is pretty busy so I should get by alright. Got a million things to do and I don’t feel as weak. I lost a 1/2 pound today…yay! …
  • So true…I love the quote “Eat to Live, not live to eat…” This has been a good prioritzing thing. :) Sabrina~ I bet that orange juice tasted really good, ey? I’m envying you, lol. Can’t wait for my orange juice. Of course, on Friday I’m done and on S…
  • Rachel and Meditating…YAY! Good for you guys…you can keep me company for four more days and each other too…accountability helps SO MUCH! Rachel~ I got the gum from a health food store…it’s called Glee Gum…I always want to say Glee Glum, lol. I can i…
  • Today I said to myself….I NEED TO CHEW…so that’s what I’m doing…on all natural gum…I thought of my natural gum and said to myself…”I need to chew, no calories, no swallowing, no food content…and now I’m chewing to beat the band. I think this will he…
  • Day 6…and it feels good…yay! I’m kind of tired of the lemonade now and so I haven’t been drinking as much as I should’ve have been. Drinking it hot does really help though. I think it really helps when you take each meal and each day at a time, not…
  • Yah, that might be difficult. :0) But GOOD FOR YOU Sabrina! You did a while! That’s amazing…I’m glad for you. All day I drank it hot, not once cold…but for you it’s hot so I can understand that. :0) One more day down! YAY!
  • You’re super silly ;) But I love it! Feeling a little sick this morning, but I’m okay now. Did some dry brushing and my skin feels so soft since I’ve started this cleanse, not sure if it’s because of the cleanse or the dry brushing, or both…but I li…
  • Yay Rachel!!! That’s fun your Dad is gonna do it too. It helps to have that support! My Mom is doing this with me and it helps a LOT! Sabrina~ You’re too goofy! Stupid lemons?? Really, you made me smile. I’m starting to get a little tired of it too……
  • Go Rachel_Akkiko! When are you starting???
  • Hey Sabrina…I’ve tried limes and I believe I’ve read that too…it’s a refreshing change, so do it!!! The salt flush went fine…I almost threw up when I was almost done drinking that water though…just so totally disgusting. But I feel like it’s really …
  • Day 4…currently I’m drinking the salt water…not enjoying it…that’s why I’m here crusing all the raw/health/recipe sites…trying to distract myself while I drink a whole quart of the stuff. Can’t wait till I’m done it. :)
  • Rachel_akkiko Glad you like my blog…I have fun doing it. I have lost 7 pounds in 2 days…I use the dried, ground, powdered cayenne…it’s an organic spice. I just use a little citrus juicer, you know, the kind you hand squeeze. Thanks for the encourage…
  • How’s everyone doing on their cleanses??? I’m really enjoying it. I did Pilates this afternoon for excersise and was busy, busy all day. It really helps to be busy. If anyone wants to keep up with this adventure you can check out my blog at www.rawr…
  • I have a slight headache today…I’m going to do the salt flush tomorrow morning, because you’re supposed to do it on an empty stomach, first thing in the morning…so I’ll do it tomorrow. I’m going to do an Epsom salt bath tonight (which helps eliminat…
  • I’m on day 3 and it’s super easy today…the first two days were the hardest. I love it! I’m barely getting hungry and I see all these little detox symtoms…white tongue, sore throat for about the first two days, fuzzy teeth…it’s kind of fun…I’m actual…
  • On DAY 2 and I feel really good…hardly hungry at all. It isn’t as bad as I thought. Of course, I’m only on day 2. Question: What kind of salt did you use for the salt flush?
  • So much for Pilates…I was working all day pretty much…oh well, my heart was right. :) lol Sabrina~ Did you feel better after the salt thing? Or was it just dreadful and pointless?
  • Just had my second lemonade and I like it…I was afraid of tasting it almost. Haven’t done Pilates yet, but will this afternoon. I’m feeling sort of empty, but it feels kind of good.
  • I’m starting today (yay!)...started the day by dry brushing and then I’m hopefully going to do some Pilates, before I even drink my first Lemonade. Do you guys find excersise hard to do during the MC or do you do a lot of it, or are you too tired?
  • I’m going to be starting the MC tomorrow. I’ve been eager to try it since I’ve heard so much good about it. I could be happier if I lost 5-10 pounds anyway…since my sister is getting married in 18 days, you know, the whole bridesmaid thing. lol. I c…
  • I love sprouted lentils, so good. I do them for 3-5 days when they have little tails. I’ve never just soaked them. I think if you soaked them until they’re soft, they’d be sprouted by then…which is super great for you. www.rawroyalty.blogspot.com

  • I tried it once, but it didn’t seem to work at all. But I’m thinking it’s because the oil, though named pure, wasn’t necessarily cold-pressed or organic. Didn’t seem to work for me, but it could’ve been the oil…probably was.
  • I believe it’s the fact that our scalp absorbs things, just like the rest of our skin does. I gave up normal shampoo because of the sodium laureth sulfate. This chemical causes cancer and the thought of massaging into my head, over my brain, didn’t …
