Day One
When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.

Actually, lemons are a good thing.
Today was day one of my 'lemonade fast'. It is a cleansing fast.
It is time to rid the body of toxins accumulated over the past year.
Food, beverages, a hospital visit, and inhaling polluted air
can introduce toxins to be stored in the cells of the body.
Fasting seems to unlock the cells. Toxins are released and eliminated.
Lemonade, made with pure maple syrup and a pinch of cayenne pepper instead of sugar,
goes into the unlocked cells and completes the cleansing process.

Day one without food was easy.
Day two is always mentally more difficult.
We will see.

Fasting certainly is not for everyone, so this is not a recommendation.

Well you are clearly faster than I am. Love the quote and the shot. Good luck.

Beautiful lemons. You have to walk a lot with this, too, so the toxins can be released quicker.

... and fresh at that. Maybe a little Lemon Icebox Pit too :)

Those lemons look really fresh. But I guess that makes sense since you live in FL. :) I've heard about fasting and cleansing toxins. Keep us posted on how it goes.

You're a bigger man than me! Good luck with the fast. (Shouldn't it be called a slow?)

Excellent shot and good luck on your cleansing.
Greg Harp17-May-2006 05:15
Great idea and shot. Good luck!

Sounds like a great idea and great shot.
I would probably last just one day.
Guest 17-May-2006 04:11
I will like to know more about your fasting too....keep us posted.

Now this sounds interesting, I want to know how this turns out. How long does it (the fast) go on?

I've never heard of a lemonade fast before, however . . . .I'll wait to see how you look before I try one =^)
