And I do relate. I have not found the immense energy most speak of, but I am also chasing a 2 and 3yr old and recently opened a store front! Things have been crazy here. I think my motivation for taking on this cleanse was not only healing in body, but also in mind. And to remind myself that amid all the chaos in my daily life I have control over myself and my reactions to everything. I find this cleanse has made me slow down and really investigate my movements during the day. I don't know if I am done with the cleanse. I will ask myself tomorrow when I wake. For now, congratulations to all who have made it this far. I am pleased to count myself in your ranks!

That being said I didn't feel the need to use the salt-water cleanse after the 5th day or so. The smooth move tea is optional, and is used to make the cleanse more regular. As I've said before, I highly recommend buying the book. It's only a few bucks and contains a complete description of what you need to know and can expect. Best of luck!

Yes, of course I check my comments! Without my readers, I'm just a silly man in an echo chamber. To answer your question, the cayenne pepper didn't really burn me. You may be putting in too much. While I don't feel comfortable sharing the recipe out of the context of the book, I will say that it's only 1/10 of a teaspoon per 8 oz of water. So, following that ratio, it's 7.5/10ths of a teaspoon (or 3/4th of a teaspoon) per 60 oz of water. However, Burroughs says you can season to taste. I think he says this because the cayenne pepper is not quite as important as the other ingredients and affects people differently. The cayenne pepper is really there to help speed up digestion. You probably lost 5 pounds because that's about how much food your entire digestive system is processing at any given point in time. Are you doing the salt-water cleanses? Those will clear everything out. It's better to drink the Lemonade throughout the day because that's going to be your only source of energy. You want to feel awake throughout the day, right? If you've read all 13 articles in this series, you know that I started out by accidentally not putting enough maple syrup in. I got really tired because of this. If you're going to be out and about all day, I recommend you get a bigger water bottle or use more than one. Better to spread it out across the whole day. Also, if you're not already, I recommend using a microwave to boil the water. It's faster. :) Nick since you seem serious about this, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0963926209/byteful-20/" rel="nofollow">I recommend buying the book</a>. It's the price of 2 cups of coffee these days, and how much better for your body is this than 2 cups of coffee? Much better. And besides, if you don't have the book, how do you know you're following the right recipe? Best of luck on your master cleanse journey! Let me know if you have any other questions. Godspeed to you!

I am about to complete day two: another 15 ounces and some tea before I hit the hay. For me it's been a pain on the first day, but the second day got surprisingly easier. That is off course until my friends and I decided to go to the mall. As we walked by the food court, the smells were just making me so hungry. (I didn't have the lemonade with me) but I hung in there lol. It's really nice that my friends are so supportive of me doing this though. I'm doing it a bit differently because I actually do workouts in conjunction with the diet, but I did have a couple of small questions, and I was hoping you could answer them. (I haven'thad the chance to buy the book yet, so I wanted to find out) As far as the peppper goes, how much would you say be enough. I mean i get the whole teaspoon thing, but for 60 ounces, 1 teaspoon was a lot. The first day, everytime i took a sip, it just burned. Is it supposed to burn? Day two, I just put in like 12 shakes, which I hoped was enough, but there was no burn today, (but it tasted good though.) Now, I was a bit weirded out last night, because i lost 5 pounds on the first day, but now that I think about it, it's probably because I didn't eat anything that day, so all the food was out of my stomach? And finally, my last question is: I have a bottle that I drink the lemonade out of, it's about 29-30 ounces. So I drink the first half during the day, but I can't just carry the thing around with me everywhere I go, so Im sitting at 4am right now, finishing the other half while the water comes to a boil so i can drink the tea. Is it okay to do that? Or should I be drinking it through out the day? Thanks, Nick P.S. I hope you still check these. Hey Andrew,
