So its the morning of my second day and I did pretty well yesterday. I didn't feel hungry for the most part and I didn't cheat at all - although I still had the natural urge to grab a cracker and almost throw it in my mouth out of habit but then I stopped myself.
Last night was the hardest part I would say. My mouth would water any time food came on the tv and my boyfriend's food smelled extra amazing - BUT I'm doing this for a reason and I wont be food deprived forever and so I stuck it out and now I feel great. 
I am not going to be doing the salt water flush - only because my boyfriend forbid it. He said that people die from drinking salt water and that he thought that was a terrible idea. (He found out about my diet yesterday). He supports my plan because he knows I want to have a fresh start and be healthy and reap the health benefits, but of course he doesn't want me to get sick or put myself in danger.
I wasn't able to drink the entire 10 cups of lemonade mix - I think its because I got started later in the day and it is ALOT of liquid. I read that it is ok if you drink 6 - 10 cups a day, so that is good. I will drink the rest today and then make more.
The herbal tea was definitly a nice way to end the day. It tasted really sweet in comparison to the lemonade so it felt like a desert and the fact that it was so warm eliminated any hunger and helped me sleep really well. Infact, I slept reeeeally well last night and feel great this morning. 
Haven't weighed myself yet but I feel 10 pounds lighter already. I also noticed that I do feel a heightened sense of smell - at least when it comes to food. haha.
I think today will be good, I would even like to do some light exercising. :) Tomorrow I hear is the absolute worst because that is when your body really flips the switch and goes into ketosis. This is where your body starts burning stored fat for energy and essentially goes into starvation mode. Doesnt sound very good at all, but this is where you start expelling tons of toxins. 
Will update again tomorrow with my progress...... :)
