The Lemonade Diet

Reia mentioned to me that she's doing the lemonade diet. And I was, "What". She told me that it was just lemonades instead of solid meals. A few days later I checked and she said she did 2 days of it, along with fruits and she had lost a few pounds and felt good.


That was more than enough to get me to try it. I found several articles and videos on the lemonade diet. It was fairly simple. I decided to do the diet. And did not want to deal with making lemonade 8 times a day using maple syrup and cayenne pepper and ...



And so I took a short cut. And got a mix that already did all of that. And so I ordered all of the elements required for the lemonade diet from Amazon.



I started the diet on Tuesday night with a cup of the smooth move tea. And Wednesday morning started with the salt water flush. I made a glass of lemonade and had it. It was a little different. While not tasty, it wasn't too bad and was able to drink it quite easily. I made 6 glasses for office. At work I had herbal tea as well as the lemonade. And felt no hunger pangs at all.

I followed the same routine on Thursday and the day went by quite well. Like a normal day. I was still not sure whether I wanted to do 3 days or 5 days or even 10 days. I decided to see how it goes and then decide.Friday morning started with the salt water flush. 10 minutes later, I wasn't feeling too well. I puked. And puked some more. And then puked even more. I was a little scared. Especially since I was alone. And decided that I needed to end this. After cleaning up and feeling a little better, I decided to complete the day. Had a glass of lemonade. Made 6 glasses for office, and off to work I went.


The day went well. And a lot of time was spent on deciding the breakfast menu. I was beginning to get hunger pangs. And the thought of breakfast was appealing. At office, today was the day, they decided to get 2 large pizzas. A Manhattan White and a Buffalo Chicken. 2 of my favorite pizzas. I was tempted. And came very close to having a piece. But somehow, I managed to avoid eating and had a cup of hot herbal tea. And some lemonade.

Its finally Saturday. And am all set to have breakfast. But not before weighing myself. Whoop. Whoop. I've dropped almost 10 lbs. I'm sure that I'm going to put on 5 lbs in the next few days. But I'll be happy to effectively lose 3 - 5 lbs. And hopefully won't put on more than I lost.

And if you want to consider doing the lemonade diet, check the below site and the video. Its a little more detailed than this blog.
