getting throught day 1 of first fast ever!

Well so far so good. I am quite hungry but the lemonade soothes me for now. I am on glass 3 and have had about 3 glasses of water so far plus my tea last night and this morning. I plan on working on a lot of projects tonight to keep my mind off of not eating. Ok my question of the day is this: I am going to do the salt water thing in the morning. But the book does not really say how often to do this. Is it just when you feel you need it or 2-3 times a week? Do you do it 2 days in a row and then lay off?
Also I am drinking smooth move but have not really had any major bowel activity. I have gone 2 times and not a whole lot. And I am following the directions to a tee. Just wanted to check in with you guys to see if I am doing this right! Thanks in advance for any and all advice!
