Default Day 1

Day 1

Happy 2008!

I started off a little late preparing my batch this morning, but had a one gallon jug filled by nine o'clock to last me the day; so, not too bad.

The recipe for my gallon jug was five lemons, ten cups of water, one teaspoon of cayenne pepper and 1 1/4 cup of grade A maple syrup.

After prepping the lemonade I made a saltwater flush drink which consists of one quart of water and two teaspoons of uniodized sea salt. Note to self for tomorrow: use lukewarm water! (salty cold water is very nasty). The drink went down without a hitch, even though it was very gross; I used to sail, so ingesting salty water isn't something completely foreign to me.

After about twenty to thirty minutes (its fifteen for some people) I needed to use the restroom and was amazed at what came out.

*warning, this is not talk for the table*
It gave me diaheria which was VERY dark brown (black because it was so thick in the center of the toilet bowl). My innards felt strangely good after expelling; a good sign.

Then I had a glass of my lemonade! It tastes good, mild but not too much of anything, however, the Cayenne pepper sure does give it to me.


All in all, a very good start to the lemonade fast! Tomorrow and the day after will be the toughest, I think, with hunger pains.
