I'm going to do the Lemonade Diet starting tomorrow. I'm going to "ease in" for 3 days, do the Lemonade diet for 10 days, and then "ease out" for 3 days. Here is the information I've found on the diet... also known as The Master Cleanse. I am going to keep a journal on here of my experiences day to day.. how I feel, advice for people that are thinking about doing it, and maybe even post my weight and (hopeful) weight loss. GASP. I'm not sure how I feel about posting my weight on a blog, but what the heck. Only have the weight to lose.
This is the next step in impoving my life. This will help me detoxify my body and cleanse out my colon, start with losing a few extra pounds. After the detox, I am going to start working out again. I have a few things in mind and can't wait to get started!!
“Ease In” Diet – 3 days
Day 1: Living Food Diet. All fresh fruits and veggies.
Day 2: Juicing, Blending, Broth, and Soups
To make Vegitable broth:
Dice 3-4 peeled potatoes of any variety
Dice one small onion
Thinly slice 3-4 stalks of fresh grown celery
Thinly slice 1 or 2 fresh grown carrots
Chop a large handful of grown greens such as kale or chard
Place in 3 quarts of pure clean/distilled water and simmer for 20 minutes.
Strain liquids and discard vegitables.
Day 3: Orange Juice. Juice 2 Liters of fresh juice and add water to taste.
The Lemonade Diet – 10 days long
Start the day with a Salt Water Cleanse.
2 tsp – 1 tbsp of sea salt
Mix with 1 liter of water
Can add lemon juice to taste
Will have bowel movement within 30 minutes
Lemonade Juice:
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 tbsp rich maple syrup (the darker, the better)
1/10 tsp cayenne pepper
8 oz of water
Drink 6 to 12 glasses a day.
8 glasses = 944 Calories a day
End the day with a herbal or green tea
Carry 1 liter of water with you
Can cheat by drinking non-caffeinated herbal teas
“Ease out” Diet – VERY important to do – 3 days
Day 1: Orange Juice
Day 2: Juicing, Blending, Broth, and Soup
Day 3: Living Food Diet
Tips:
Use fresh lemons. Buy 50 at a time and keep 10 out of the fridge at a time. Use non-iodized salt. If you don’t like the salt water cleanse, you can use laxatives, same difference. Living food diet works best when eating 60/40 veggies to fruits.
WISH ME LUCK!! Day 1 is tomorrow. I hope the boyfriend is on board with my goal or else it's going to be difficult to complete with all the tempting foods!!
