??? i must really be blocked up. is that usual? i mean i did have a bm but nothing smooth about it. i drank the smooth move tea with senna. maybe i prepared it wrong? i dont know but i am scared that i am really toxic and this will cause my stones to react then i usually i start throwing up and cant hold anything down not even water. anyway. i hope it goes well. i plan to do 28 days and then one week juice fasting and then a week raw and then starting a very heathly diet. i need all the encouragement possible. thank you to all. i will post my stats tomorrow and on.

I will be starting my MC in a few days after getting off of antibotics for UTI. I have kidney stones and have had reoccurances for years so i know this is my first real cleanse. Now I have a question I am weary about SWF and tea with the bathroom situation. I work from 8am to 5am in a corporate environment. How do you think I should handle this. The bathroom is next to my boss’s office. How many times in a given day will i be eliminating. I am naturally not that regular. So i was going to do both the tea and the SWF. I can handle getting up early and doing the swf as early as 5am but do yo ...

Ok
Every since I had my first child 9 years ago I have had a case of kidney stones yearly. Usually just a day or two of excruciating pain and I pass them. Been to the hospital about 4 or 5 times. Most I have stayed is overnight for observation since my kidney was swollen. I CANT TAKE IT ANYMORE. I seen a new urologist last week and he took a scan and saw I had 5 kidney stones two in each kidney and one in my bladder. After Thanksgiving I had a bad spell with the kidney stones and I thought I passed two. I cant believe there are 5 in there. I have to do something. I am doing a 24 hr urin ...

“I was walking down the road and I fell in a hole. It was dark and I didn’t know where I was going. I was scared but after awhile I climbed my way out.
The next day I’m walking down the same road and I fall in the same hole. It wasn’t my fault. I was distracted and forgot about the hole in the road. This time I’m not as scared so I climb out of the hole faster.
The next day I’m walking down the road and this time I remember the hole in the road so I walk around it and proceed down the road with only a little bit of wasted time and effort.

I want to stay focused on like God while on it but I have to be honest I get cranky. Has this happened to you? How have you dealt with the emotions. I usually have a smile on my face but I have noticed in previous small fasts i get a somber look on my face.

By Dec 22 i would like to be more healthy and ready to go to Florida atleast 20lbs lighter
