Thank you both for your advise and concerns! I do not feel too bad, it was more the reaction I was getting from other people that was concerning me more ("You look wayy too skinny!", etc). I decided that I'm going to up my dosage tommorrow to 8 lemonades with total of 20 tbs of Maple Syrup. I'm going to see how I feel, and if don't have any additional energy or continue to lose more weight by the next next I will abort, regroup and consider my other options. My main reason for cleansing was for detox reasons, and I saw all the weight loss simply as an unpleasant side effect. Hopefully I can find another safer solution to detox that will help me maintain my weight.

On a side note, the metabolism issue does concern me a bit. Many would consider it a blessing, to be able to eat whatever you please and however much without concerns of excess weight gain, however I see it more of a curse! I had been underweight much of my life, and became very self-conscious about my weight when I was young. I started to gorge myself in my teen years simply to gain weight and eventually it got to the point where I was eating literally every 2 hours from getting up to going to sleep. I even took 1,000 calorie shakes 2 times a day including 1 right before bed, and at my peak, I was consuming 4,500 calories/day just to maintain a weight of barely over 140! Eating all that food turned into a bit of an inconvenience and eventually I started to develop food addictions.

My goal is not to look good while being able to eat whatever I want, but rather plain and simple, be healthy! I believe minimalism is the key to the best health, and right now I see my metabolism as an imbalance or ineffeciency within my system as well a big obstacle to my goal! 4,000+ calories just to maintain a normal weight just does not sound right... what a waste of resources if you ask me! Additionally, all that gorging really puts a toll on my system (especially taxing on the digestive system, kidneys, liver, etc) and really drains me of spiritual energy which is something I value a lot!

Whether this is a simple matter of genetics that cannot be reversed, or something else, I am not sure... any ideas?
