Guest guest Posted September 16, 2004 Report Share Posted September 16, 2004 Hi I did the lemonade diet about two months ago now. I had to stop on day 5 because my mouth broke out in Candida sores. I wouldn't recommend doing the fast if you are still suffering from Candida. The sugar in the Molasses will eventually cause a flare up. But as a fast it's a good one. I didn't exprience any " hunger " that wasn't associated with normal meal times, and the drink took care of it just fine. The mental hunger is the real killer. You wont realise how food entertains you until you have to go without. It's like not watching TV - you'll need to find other things to do with the time. I got really envolved in planning, shopping and cooking meals for my family. They all ate really well that week. I still sat down with them while they ate and took part in the social part of meal time. I just made sure I had a glass of the lemonade before sitting down and another to sip at the table. Are you going to do the Salt water flushing. I'd recommend using a laxative tea the first day and using the Salt water from the second day (before brushing you teeth) when your tongue will have a coating on it. That way you wont taste it so much. By the third day you'll probably be looking forward to the salt for a break from the sweet/sour taste. Goodluck with it!
