I now have exactly 0 oz. of solid waste in my body, trust me on that one. After the first entire day of fluids only, and peeing more in one day, than i had in the previous 7, I think the cleanse is starting to do its thing. I'll admit though that yesterday was hell. At several different times yesterday i was craving Cheesy Poofs, Hawaiian Pizza, and Meatloaf (all 3 a staple of my winter diet) and hell, even at one point i was thinking about gnawing on some shoe leather. I will have to admit tho that i did cheat yesterday. I mixed a scoop of protein powder with a glass of water yesterday afternoon when i couldn't stand the cravings any longer.
Based on how much better i felt after doing that i am most likely gonna modify the cleanse slightly. I'm planning on introducing an apple or orange into my diet when i just cant stand the craving anymore. I will most likely stick with the occasional protein shake too since its a liquid. Within the documentation that SAMBU includes in the cleanse, it talks about a "modified" version of the cleanse where you have as much fruit in the morning as you want, a whole grain sandwich at lunch and veggie/brown rice at dinner. It says the cleanse isn't as effective, for obvious reasons, but it also said that slight hunger pangs and occasional lightheaded feelings are to be expected. As a 250 lb male (versus the 100lb female that recommended the cleanse) an extra 200 calories a day in the form of an orange or protien shake is a trade off that i am willing to make if it keeps me from wanting to jump off the roof cause i'm sooooo damn hungry.
Based on a suggestion from a good friend of mine, i'm not gonna weigh myself until next Friday, the day after my cleanse is complete. The reason for the suggestion was that if i get on the scale tomorrow and weigh 240 lbs, that i would most likely feel that it would be ok to cheat and call my local pizza shop(very valid point might I add). So for those of you that read this pathetic blog, comment on it and put in your guess as to where you think my weight will be next Friday morning. Person that guesses closest will get themselves a nice little gift that I will send out to you after the cleanse is done. So over the last 3 mornings ive gone from 255 to 252 to 248, so put in a guess and lemme know where you think i'll end up. The prize may end up having a UPS logo on it, but what the hell :) Dont forget to take into consideration that most likely i'll have a day in here where i will cheat horribly, since i have 0 willpower!
I was told this morning that i am CRAZY for doin this cleanse, and all i need do is point to the title of this blog, my brain works waaaaay different than most people.
have a great day, i know i'll be miserable for most of it...

I'm going to guess 245 and I don't want your poop sock so don't send it to me.
250
I have a serious lack in your ability to stick this out another 7 days.
243. I think you can make it all the way through to the end.
ahem,
I'll have you know, that I weighed 172 lbs of muscle when I did that cleanse and was playing volleyball 6 days a week in university. 100 lb girl.. pfft, maybe when I was 10 years old.
Honestly Doug, do yourself a favour and follow the cleanse to the letter. The only reason you are feeling hungry is *because* you are cheating. Believe me, I have done many cleanses and fasts, and if you can get over the initial hunger on the first day, you are fine. If, on the other hand, you fill your stomach again, then you are just going to feel hungry again later when it's empty.
btw,
I think you can make it thru the cleanse, especially if you follow my advice and nix the food.
My prediction for your weight is 238 lbs
you're tellin me an orange or apple a day is gonna kill the cleanse?
i'm thinking about doing it because i'm hungry
only thing in my stomach is water/juice and if i feel today like i did yesterday, i WILL have something in my stomach, cause i'm a psychopath, not a masochist
well, in my experience, I've been hungrier when I was just eating a teensy bit of stuff, than when I wasn't eating anything at all. After 1-2 days you are not hungry, but if you eat a teensy bit, you will be hungry all 10 days. Like I say, that is just my experience. You do whatever you like.
