There does seem to be times when the board can become contentious. While I appreciate that some need the structure, there are many who do not and also all the variables in between. I happened to grok to the beauty of doing my first cleanse by the book since it has worked for so many, so then I was able to re-evaluate what had happended and make some changes which would allow me to successfully fast again this year.

For me, it is about choices and setting myself up to succeed. I cannot control what others say or do and certainly I do not feel like I have to make choices for others but I totally respect myself and my own ability to chose for myself what I can live with. I respect you for standing up for yourself and making choices you can stand by.

Fortunately, for those who are focused on trying to prove that the cleanse will not work for them, we have a hundred or more who can extole the virtues. Like so many things, the energy you put into the cleanse will return to you proportionately.

I am impressed that you jumped right into the liver flush and especially the first week since those first days can be rough. Its no wonder you feel a little wiped since a flush is a little like a mini-surgery. I am still waiting until next week to begin my post-fast flushes.

Yay about your colonic though! That is such a good thing to do. My favorite colonic specialist is in Missouri and perhaps I could find the number online and make an appointment since I will be there this time next month. At the moment all I can remember is her first name...ggg.

It sounds like you are making great progress though and are almost at your halfway mark!! My last week was really productive because of the cayenne amping per Detour's encouragement...so I wish you equal success. I am glad you are blogging since I have gone back over a number of my blog entries and thought, wow, I would not have remembered that! You will enjoy remembering back too I suspect...ggg

Best of luck to you!!
