Hey Mascara,
I have done the salt water flush accompanied with an all fruit fast for 3 days. I ordinarily am not one to react to sodium but have noticed that I feel all woozy and bloated when I do the flush.
I'll break it down for you.
POSITIVE
Your colon will be super clean.
You feel lighter and healthier. (Can't say whether this is due to the fruit and raw veggie intake or the flush...I suspect both)
NEGATIVE
The two hours after the flush are....um...quite explosive. One word of advice, if you think it's gas...it isn't...go sit on the toilet.
The bloating and woozieness are pretty bad following the ingestion of the saline solution.
You are going to feel like you are about to throw up when you do the initial drinking of said saline concoction.
good morninggggggg ladies : ) so nice to come in and read everyone's news. Congratulations on the losses! kt, I hope your back is feeling better. Hope you all had a super weekend.
It was a very busy weekend for me, I was always on the go and busy getting stuff ready, had company over the weekend. We were lucky the weather turned out great and we able to sit oudoors and enjoy it. I am due to weigh in on thurs, I don't know what to expect at this point, i feel i will be lucky to have maintained! Overall , I did pretty good with the food plan, except for yesterday.... 2 more days left to weigh in, so it's crank down time. dh starts vaca mid june for almost 2 weeks so i plan on cranking the next 2 weeks! Although I was busy and didnt do my traditional ex. sun. and mon. , I was extremely active so hope this helped in my plight. I am looking forward to our new month together ladies! NOw that the holiday weekend and party is over, its back to my routine! I just got a fresh batch of fish the other day.
Congratulations once again on the super work ladies! It's amazing our month is about to come to a close, I feel it went by so fast. I'll start a june thread for us so it will be ready for us to move over there at months end. Hope you all have a super day, keep it rockin
Bah no weight loss for me this week. Boo! It seems unfair, because i have been working out an watching what I eat. I am going to be very strict and write down EVERYTHING this week that passes my lips, liquid and everything!! If nothing has shifted in a week I am going to see a nutritionist or someone who can give me some advice. I think im still too heavy to have reached my plateau surely?!?
Well done ladies on your loss!! The salt water flush sounds interesting by the way, im not sure the positives are worth the negatives!! What is it meant to do exactley?!? Flush you out?!

Hi everyone!
Been reading all your posts and have to say I think you ladies are awesome!!!! I know I'm late for May but was wondering if I could join in for the June Challenge (if there is one)?
To tell you a bit about myself - my name is Treasa and I'm a flabby 40. I'm originally from NYC, living in England. (It's all my husband and triplet stepson's fault! )
I recently re-joined WW for the millionth time after an accident wrecked my knee and my DR has told me if I don't shift this weight my knee will probably give out in about 10 yrs. <sobbing>
Looking forward to chatting with you!
Cheers
Treasa

Well, my two week resolve broke this morning and I couldn't believe my eyes!
I am down to 132...that's one pound away from my May goal! I can't believe it!
I can't wait for the June challange...I haven't been down in the 120's in 7 or 8 years! I can't wait!!! Yaay. At least half of the credit goes to this thread and the wonderful ladies I've met here. Together we can do it. I am so giddy with excitement I know this post is going to be all over the place.
Woo woo!! June here I come!
Nyerinuk! Welcome! I"m a formere NYC gal myself. I'm 34 and spent my late teens to my early 30's in Manhattan. HOw I miss it so sometimes! Now I live in NJ with my Hubby and two little kids.

I don't really know about plateaus all htat much...perhaps your body has just become accustomed to one way of being...and it's time to shake things up? After I dropped 4 pounds in the first week of this challange, nothing was moving for me...NOTHING!! And now....all of a sudden (it seems like overnight) the weight has come off!! All I can say is...hang in there!
oh bummer, I just wrote a big post and lost it all!!!!!! I'll make this a quickie as I am not feeling well and want to head over and start our new thread for june before logging out.
Treasa, welcome never too late to join, glad you did.
pigginpodgey, hang in there. For me it's not uncommon for the scale to not move sometimes after losing some weight, but by keeping at it, eventually it moves again. Keep us posted as to how you make out.
Lekhika, I am sooooo happy for you! congratulations!!!!
ok, as for me, I got on the scale today (a day early) and I am the same, not up or down. I am happy at this point that I maintained over the holiday weekend, parties, etc. 25 lbs..mark (feb. -9, march. -5, april. -7, may.-4) so its 4 lbs. lost this month. So glad I started when I did as it's been slower for me more than i thought. Those numbers do add up over time though ladies, so for any of you experiencing a slow loss or a stubborn scale for a bit, keep that in mind and keep on truckin!!!!! okay, ill go start our thread now. Ty once again to all of you for another great month together, for the support and encouragement. hope you all have a beautiful day and good luck to those of you weighing in tomorrow.
okay i maintained this week so mays loss is 6/10 pounds but hey thats good and i usually lose that plateu (sp) after a week or so anyway I'd be more worried if i put on! hope you ladies have great losses for this month and I'm looking forward to june (yay my birth month!! oh wait that means cake damn)
So no loss for me this month - but Im due to weigh in on monday, which is June, so bring it on!! Ive been really shaking it up this week, doing different exercise, eating different foods, so hopefully something shifts!! see you in our june thread ladies!!
