The Master Cleanse

[stephanie_says_]

We're going to start the fast on Monday. I'm hoping to make it to at least 10 days.

My diet will consist solely of 6-12 glasses of this concoction a day:

2 tbsp. lemon or lime juice (1/2 lemon)
2 tbsp. of pure grade B maple syrup
1/10 tsp. cayenne pepper
10 oz of purified water

I'm going to track of all the interesting details here.

from the bit I read on it, it made a lot of references to laxatives and eliminating the waste in the body, so as far as reporting any happenings... ah hell, it'd actually be pretty funny! do it!

A friend of mine here went on a fast and he seemed to like it pretty well.
Why does the maple syrup have to be grade B?
Be sure to go back on regular food slowly or you'll be sick!

our friend jen just did it last week, and she didn't hate it.

Grade B because it is "pure maple syrup, free of any material other than pure, clean, clear liquid maple syrup in sanitary condition, and no formaldehyde used in the maple sugaring process."

your user pic is so creepy and i love it!
