Detox - Day 4
So today is the 4th day. Gah, I hate this thing so much. Here’s a little update on what happened last night after work.
I got out late. Got home around 10 pm and jumped right onto the bike and biked over to Shantal’s house. Funny thing is that while I was biking, it felt really good. Biking felt incredibly easy for some reason and although I should’ve been tired from the lack of working out and food these past few days, I felt good.
I got to Shantal’s house and before we started our work out, I got on his scale. Now I wasn’t able to weigh myself before I started, but if I was consistent with what I weighed for most of these past few months, I was at 205. I got on and I was at 199.6. I lost 5.4 lbs. That’s great news except that’s really not that much. Probably mostly water weight. Sad thing is, that scale also takes your body fat and it turns out that I still am 29%. Gross man.
Weight lifting seemed quite easy. We just did biceps, which is a smaller exercise regardless so when tonight comes around, we’ll see how hard the physical labor will really be with benching. I think we’re upping the weight today too.
This morning I woke up with a stomach ache. I guess the laxative tea did some work although nothing really came out. I couldn’t force myself either. Just gave me a stomach ache. Felt like that the whole morning actually. Got to work, got settled in for a bit, and then I had a salt wash about an hour later. That thing worked faster today. About half an hour in and I had to go.
!!!This is where the gross part starts so you shouldn’t read it if you’re weak of heart!!!
So one of the reasons I find myself not wanting to continue with this detox is because of the content behind each bowel movement. I’ve read lots of testimonials of people when they’re on this, even as early as day 2, of having these crazy things coming out of their butts. These things could range from marbles they ate when they were kids to chunks of steak that never got digested properly. So a visual plethora of evidence in how the detox was working on their system.
But for me, that doesn’t work. I just seem to pee out of my butt with nothing solid coming out. It smells horrible though. Like when babies poo for the first time. That’s the smell. But nothing solid. So I figure there’s only two logical things to say about this.
1. My system is actually pretty clean and I don’t need to go on this.
or
2. My system is so bad that it will take me more then these four days to actually get anything significant out.
I’m dreading the latter. I guess I’ll find out tomorrow if this improves at all. Although, I think that if nothing changes in the next 48 hours, I’ll be giving this detox an end.
