Day 4

Well I drank the tea last for the first time last night. I had an awful night. I feel asleep around 11:30, woke up at 12:15 to a phone call from some friends and then I was so hungry and sick to my stomach, I really struggled gettting back to sleep again. I finally fell asleep and woke up at 2 in the morning so incredibley sick. I ran to the bathroom as fast as I could. Going to the bathroom didn't help too much. I felt like I was on my period. My kidneys and stomach were twisting horribley and in SO much pain. I couldn't even move. I probably stayed in my bathroom for 5 minutes saying prayer after prayer that the awful pain would go away.  It was weird because my skin was freezing cold but I felt like I was dying of heat and I was sweating so bad. Finally it calmed down and I went back to bed. It took a while for me to get back to sleep cuz I felt so sick to my stomach and I still wasn't feeling too great. That was honestly probably the worst moment I've had so far in the Master Cleanse journey. It was awful. Well that and the other morning when I felt like death. I really don't know what caused it to be so bad but it was pretty miserable.

Today hasn't been too bad.  I haven't had to run to the bathroom really like previous days but I feel like the tea has been working on me and I should be going to the bathroom.  My body has had that uncomfortable feeling that I keep talking about off and on since about 2.  Other than that I've been fine.  The drinks are easy for me to chug quickly and they don't phase me too much.  The tea is still miserable though!  MISERABLE.  Just prepare yourself if you ever do the cleanse.  It sucks.  I keep thinking that my food cravings will not be as strong but I am definitely still starving and wishing I could eat chicken, fish, salad, cottage cheese, spaghetti, carbs, and lots more.  Those are the foods I keep craving.  The good news is I haven't really been craving sweets at all.  In fact, the thought of them makes me want to throw up a little.  The lemonade itself is SOO sweet that I'm sure that's why I feel this way.
