Sounds good alexza, keep us posted.

So today was day 4, and I must admit that nothing much has changed. I did 3 minutes with the tea last night.

However, I take the train into work everyday and this morning, I actually PASSED OUT in the train. This is not something that happens to me regularly so I was wondering if it had happened to anyone else. I thought maybe the pass out was due to the tea...but I doubt it...

Its strange because I have been drinking my 2 Liters of water per day, and still I would say I go #2 even less then before. Maybe its just my body adjusting.

Well last night I wrote how I would be steeping the tea for a few minutes. 4.5 mins was actually the time I steeped it. Well I slept well, no cramping until this morning when it came with  a fury...some pretty major cramping...went to the bathroom about 3 or 4 times in 20 mins, and the last couple of times were pretty liquid. I am assuming its the tea working, or it may be the whole program kicking in. But I definetly feel pretty empty...I am about to go take the paranil pills now...they are still pretty horrible to take....I just can't seem to get used to the smell or taste...

Day 14. So I am going back in time a little, but let me talk about day 12!!! On Thursday, I went #2 at least 4 times, the last couple being later at night with severe cramps. It was really intense. I hadn't even had my tea yet. I had had some mile cramping in the morning because the night before I had steeped the tea 4.5 mins. However, nothing crazy during the day. But that night, it was pretty insane. Needless to say I didn' 't drink the tea that night (just in case). On Thursday though, I definetly felt like I was "flushed out", if that's the appropriate term.

Today I am on Day 14, and I think I have just started understanding what people mean about the sweet cravings. I really find that I have them less, most of the time, its almost like a routine reaction. (I have something sweet everyday). So there is a couple times where I just didn't have the peice of cake or cookie.

Thank you for your comments Laura. I have not passed out since. I don't take any medications either. The doctor simply stated that I had had a drop in blood pressure.

I am definetly being patient. I have trouble not drinking any coffee or red wine (on weekends). I don't drink anything else and enjoy a nice glass of red with dinner. The paranil capsules are still really horrible. Yesterday, I tried taking them without blocking my nose and I vomited a little. it was horrible. I will go back to blocking the nose.

Take care everyone. I'll keep u posted.

Hey JP,
I was thinking of taking them with juice, but it says to take with lots of water on an empty stomach, so that's why I have been trying to fight it. 

The blocking of the nose works quite well.

Take care.

Day 23: Things are going well with the colonix! However, I definetly find that when I go to the bathroom is it pretty vial and I can't stand the smell all that much. Also, I find it a little impracticle going to the bathroom at work...I try and wait...but I don't find I have the same holding threshold...its more like when you gotta go, you gotta go!

Tonight I will see what steeping the tea for 5 mins will do. I have been doing 4 minutes lately. The paranil pills are still really gross, but I can't really do anything about that.

People have told me that my stomach has flatened out a little. I haven't lossed or gained anything but I definetly feel better in my clothes...don't know if its the mix of everything.

I sprained my ankle a couple of weeks ago and had to stop going to the gym which is no good, but what can you do.

I will go back as soon as I can.
