First liver/gb flush last night - I'm satisfied

Just did a liver/gb flush last night, and wanted to share! First off, I just want to say -- yuck! First the epsom salt! Nasty! However, I drank some water immediately after to wash the taste out of my mouth, and so it really wasn't so bad after all. And I have to admit, that the lemon juice/olive oil mixture wasn't bad at all. The worst part is that after the eighth cup, it started to burn the back of my throat. That's alot of lemon juice! Then again, I didn't follow the directions exactly. I forgot I was supposed to mix the lemon juice and olive oil with distilled water! So I drank it all straight! But the lemon juice emulsifies the olive oil, and it tastes mostly like lemon. It just gets harder as you do more because you get satiated. Anyway, I managed to get it all down. Then the Epsom Salts kicked in and I had to run to the restroom only two hours after taking them. I then went to bed at midnight, and tried to sleep, but had to run to the bathroom three more times by 3 am. Needless to say, I was very tired today at work. I didn't need to go any more until tonight, and I thought the whole thing had been a bust, because I hadn't passed anything but liquid. But then I saw what looked like black beans in the toilet, and I had had black beans for dinner. I was wondering how they could have had such an astonishingly fast transit time, because it had only been about an hour since I ate. Upon closer inspection, I realized they were dark green, not black, and of unusual shapes. I took some and cleaned them off, and when I broke them open they were like wax. I'm satisfied that they were stones, though not the really hard kind.

Anyway, I know this isn't earth-shaking as stories go, but I just wanted to add my voice to the growing list of those who've done it! It wasn't fun, but I believe it will have been worth it. Thanks for listening,
