Well, day one went fairly well.
Peter and I both had LOTS of energy and weren't really that hungry.
Last night, we drank the "Smooth Moove" chocolate flavored tea. It was terrible.
WE went to bed.
I woke up at 4:30 this morning with CRAZY stomach cramps like I had never had before. I had them for about 2 and half hours before I actually went to the bathroom. After that, I got back in bed. I woke up 45 minutes later feeling absolutely terrible. I felt as if I had just had the stomach flu.
I got in the shower, and minutes after applying my shampoo, I must have blacked out.
I opened my eyes to find myself sitting in the shower floor. I don't really remember sitting down, so I must have blacked out. I could barely hold my hair up.
I got out and called Peter, while laying on the floor trying to recouperate.
He said he dry heaved a few times this morning and had been to the bathroom 3 times and that he felt just like I did.
According to the Dr. that I work for, he says everyone is different. He said he thinks my toxins were coming out quicker than normal and that some people throw up for 3 days solid.
THIS IS NOT what I signed up for.
In the midst of tears, we quit.
I then mustered up the energy to eat 2 waffles and a wheat English muffin. CARBS ANYONE?
I didn't care.
It's 10 oclock right now, and I still feel terrible. It took EVERYTHING I had to make it work. Thankfully, I don't have to get out of my chair and that I have a 3 hour break.
Our friends who just finished didn't have ANY of the symptoms we experienced this morning.
I'm thankful, because we already made plans to go to the state fair this weekend. Can we say torture? The state fair is about EATING!!!! DUH!
So, I'm sorry I failed. It just wasn't worth it.
Good bye lemonade and "smooth moove" tea. I will never drink you again!

HOW AWFUL!! Sorry it did not work the way you planned :( I hope you fell BACK TO NORMAL soon
that sounds terrible!!!! i'm sorry you were so sick...thats so scary! just eat strawberries...dont they 'clean' you out? haha..i feel like i heard that somewhere....dunno :)
Okay. So. On Oprah, Dr. Oz did this little experiment and found out that "cleansing/detox" diets are a crock.
Now go eat some funnel cake and corn dogs at the Fair. :)
Love you!
I don't think any "cleansing" is worth all that! Glad you're back among the REAL people who eat food. :)
Not so smooth move, huh? Confession: I've drank that tea before, and yes, felt like I was passing my ribs. NOT COMFORTABLE!
Oh wow...I've heard of this sort of thing happening to people on the lemonade cleanse. Some people do just fine, and for some it's awful.
Did you plan to go to the fair thinking you'd be on the diet still? If so, you must have WILL POWER OF STEEL.
Ok, Molly....that's awful:) I totally think you get an E for Effort! Hope yall are doing well:) Bless you guys!
