Blog: 30-40 day juice fast to pry open my third eye
Hi again. Day 16 now... again a copy/paste because I'm lazy!
Ya, it's really weird that I still have all this mucus coming out. I'll do a swf in the afternoon, and by the end of the night the last few movements are just yellowish water - no fiber, no mucus, nothing. Then the next morning/day, sure enough more mucus makes it way down.
I was kind of wondering about frequent swf's myself, but I was reading on one site to do it 7 days in a row, so I didn't think it could hurt. I'm not doing one today though, because I'm sick of having felt full bowels for the past 5 days. Last night I did my biggest one yet - usually I do 1 liter but last night it was one and a half.
Other than juice and saltwater, I've only been drinking senna/gingko tea, and occasionally apple cider vinegar. No supplements, no broth, or anything else like that. In the morning I make a carrot/apple to drink immediately, and I make another 750ml or so to take to work in a thermos, and throw in a few ice cubes. At night I'll have a mixed veggie juice.
I hope things keep going well for you! I'm actually feeling kind of crappy right now. My wife dragged me to Costco today, which is like a super-mega-lo-mart that always leaves me with a headache. I've also been working too much. All work and no play make Homer go something something...
Once I get a few days in a row off I'll be spending a lot more time in my mind. I've been so busy the past couple weeks, the closest I've come to meditating has been lying in the bathtub with my eyes closed, which I enjoy, but I have a habit of falling asleep!
And again good luck to you, you're just about over the 3 day peak!
Update: It's twenty after eight in the evening now, I'm feeling a lot better. I was having to get up every 10 minutes for over an hour earlier to let out tiny spurts of mucus and water, with very little mucus by the end.
Gonna relax in the tub for a bit before bed. I've been having long, incredibly vivid dreams the past few nights. I look forward to another; I get to sleep in a bit tomorrow as I'm on the evening shift.

Thank you for replying! Yep.. I'm on day 3. Still no serious issue with hunger, except the occasional 5-10 minute stomach grumble. Also, I seem to have lost about 4 pounds, which was rather unexpected. The only thing that is bothering me is that my mouth has become covered in a sort of white film..I mean my gums and all..inside of the lips...yechhh.
Another thing.. I am VERY tired..I am not working at the moment so I really dont have any worries. Since this is the case I can take naps when I have too, but wow..I am really tired. My skin is starting to break out too. Well, anyway I've read that these sorts of reactions can occur. I am definately going to start doing the SWF. I think it will help in the toxin elimination and perhaps stop it from coming out through my face and mouth! hehe..
Did any of these things occur for you early in your fast? Did they pass? Do you think since I have been so hard on my body the last 6 years(drugs, alcohol, over-eating), that I am simply having a stronger initial detox reaction?
I'm glad things are going along well for you. It still amazes me that you are having eliminations this far along. I just can't believe so much junk could be trapped in the body. KEEP ON GOING!!
..hope I'm not driving you buggy with all my questions!

Hey again! I'm actually glad you're asking me these questions as it's all stuff I'm forgetting to put into my blog.
I wouldn't worry about the 4 lbs loss, that should just be from your intestines emptying.
My mouth was pretty gross for the first week and a half, too. I use a tongue scraper a few times a day and brush my teeth with this natural toothpaste I got. I wouldn't say I have the greatest breath now, but it's improved a lot and isn't really filmy or anything.
I haven't really been feeling tired at all...just lack of motivation to do things I don't like doing. Sometimes makes it hard to get out of bed for work.
As far as the abuse you've put your body through, I think that may be why you're having a strong initial reaction. I don't really ever drink because it's always just put me to sleep. I used to overeat like crazy, but not for the past few years. And I guess it would depend what drugs you're talking about. I smoke marijuana regularly, and as long as you can control you're appetite, you've overcome the worst side-effect.
Well thanks for the support and I hope you continue on as well. How many days are you planning?
Take it easy
