Remedy-Day 4

I know I was slack because I usually write earlier in the day. I've been busy with errands and such. So, I've had lots of energy today, but I think it's more because this cleanse is almost over. I'm mostly finishing because I like to finish things I start. Here are conclusions I've come to while doing this cleanse:

This is not for someone who has cleansed regularly or already eats a relatively healthy diet. We were already vegetarian. We already drank chlorophyll daily. We'd already stopped eating out a lot. Blah, blah, blah...That being said, I didn't see any profound change. This would be an excellent starter cleanse. I will however incorporate all of the things I've learned and build on what we already have established healthwise. At a later time I will, however, do weeks 2-5 of the cleanse. I don't have the funds right now to do everything as it should be done, so as stated above I won't do it until I can do it completely.

Bowel health is very important to me. That being said, I was more comfortable with MC in that I saw "results" daily. With this cleanse I only had results when I chose to drink prune juice as my juice. I am a little nervous that I am going to have to do some extra work to get my bowels back on track. We'll see. I know that he mentions enemas and such in the book for those that have problems with constipation, but I didn't and I don't plan on starting now.

I'm going back to my old chlorophyll. I realize that his chlorophyll might be better, but what good is something that I hate drinking? Maybe as I continue this path I will revisit it, but until then...I'm over it. I also like liquid chlorophyll more than powder...especially grainy powder.

A cleanse shouldn't make you tired imho. Okay, so when I did MC I had the energy of 10 women. I was waking up without my alarm clock, taking walks, and exercising. Well with this I've been too tired to even read my books, which pissed me off a bit.

This is an excellent cleanse for a beginner. The cleanse is short, sweet, and to the point. You also are able to have a break the monotony with the juices and you are also able to choose which juices you want which I love!!!

I realize that my commentary doesn't line up with most that sing the praises of this cleanse and maybe the next time when I am able to do the entire thing I will see a difference. I'm not giving up on it just yet. I'm definitely going to revisit the concepts with my own tweaking. I would suggest that you try this cleanse for yourself and if nothing else buy the book, because it has SO MUCH KNOWLEDGE in it.

Btw, today is the last day of the cleanse, but tomorrow is a recovery day. Don't ever do a liquid cleanse and think that you don't need a recovery day.

Remedy-Day 3

Good morning! So last night I went to be around 8:15-8:30. I was so tired/drained. I did my pre-shower dry brushing and boy did it feel good!!! My cycle started this morning so I'll blame the headache I had on that. This morning I juiced cantaloupe because today is melon day.

Issues so far:

Amount of Mega Greens needed vs. shipping efficiency-I am doing the cleanse with my husband. Went through the 1st jar of Mega Greens yesterday. When I messaged him on FB he said that they only ship every two weeks so you should plan for that. If you are doing the entire five week plan (alone), I would estimate that you will need 3-4 containers if you add the maximum amount to your various juices. Another idea would be to see where you are at the end of the cleansing portion and order according to that prior to the 5 week part of the plan. BTW, there is no expedited shipping offered that I know of.

Juicing out of season-So, yea melon is not in season right now. Shoot a lot of stuff is out of season right now so this is really expensive and I'm trying to figure out where this stuff is even coming from. I am treating this like I do cooking. I'll do it as recommended the first time and tweak it to fit the next time.

Amount of water to drink daily-I was already drinking a gallon of water daily. I decided that he must mean that you are to drink a gallon minimum. Maybe my stomach capacity is too large from overeating all these years. Idk, but I'm going to do it his way this time, and as stated above, tweak for my needs the next time.

Size of Mega Green opening vs tablespoon-I know this may sound petty, but whatever. I was a little irritated at not being able to fit my tablespoon in the opening of the jar. If you tell me that all of my measurements are pretty much in tablespoons, shouldn't your jar accommodate a "regular" tablespoon. For all of you culinary artist, I realize that tablespoons come in all shaped, but most of us use the Dollar Store round one. Anyway I just ended up dumping both jars into a mason jar for less waste and time saving.
