Default COLON CLEANSE CHALLENGE
Yes it sounds gross..but this thread is for people who are doing a colon cleanse. It doesn't have to be the same cleanse as I am doing (Colonix). Let's compare how the cleanse makes us feel and give one another support when we feel like giving it up.......and exchange info about cleanses.

DAY 1 COLONIX

Well I took my two parasil capsules in the morning..they went down okay...fifteen minutes later I had the fiber drink...kind of nasty but not unbearable..I chugged it down so I wouldnt' taste how nasty it was until the end....it smells a little bit like bananas.

Tonight I have the tea..

So far nothing. Had some stomach pain , not sure if its related but i'm okay now....

Can't wait for it to start working.....

Hey Scat, I'd like to join in; I have been taking the 3 Ballerina Diet Tea, supposed to make you have a movement every day, but for the last couple of days, it hasn't been working as well as it had before -- think I'll give 4mami's pills a try; there's a GNC down the street from my job, so I'll get them Monday at lunchtime - a very necessary challenge!
P.S. -- I think the bit of stomach cramping you experienced is due to "things moving along" because I had that too when the tea was working --
"Our tomorrows are great days; if we slip up, it is always right there to help get us back on track again"!

Hello all!! Well, my 3 Ballerina tea kicked in this morning; there was a minor explosion over here in Maryland!! But even so, I still plan to get 4mami's pills from GNC on Monday -

Got a question 4mami, when you take them, how long before they kick in? Like if I take one at 9 am at work, will I be "done" before leaving work at 5:30?

Thanks for the info, I will give it a try. I don't think I really want to try something I have to taste, so this works out even better.

I'm so happy that you guys joined this challenge. At first I was a little apprehensive about doing a challenge when the premise is about pooping..but that is such a big issue when people take phen....

DAY TWO Colonix

I didn't take the pills and fiber this morning because I had to get up early to get to the gym and I was in a rush. The pamphlet said to do that in the MORNING so now i'm wondering if I should do it now. All I had today to eat so far was a banana....I wonder if they want you to take this crap on an empty stomach???? OY , this is so confusing.

Anyway I had that bad headache and stomach pain last night so I dind't have the tea that comes with teh cleanse..I'll be doing that tonight for sure. So far nothing! I felt like I had to go a few times but it was a false alarm...I can't wait for this to kick in....I bought a HUGE pack of strawberries today so maybe that will help me bust a move, we'lll see..

In search of I will tell you which cleanses not to get:

the one from Natrol sold in health food stores (just pills that give you stinky toxic gas. I nearly brought down a whole airplane on a trip to Bermuda)...

The one on t.v. that they sell in BJ's..i think its called Dual Action Cleanse. Did not to SQUAT and then saw online others thought it was a waste of money.....

There is one for sale at Walmart that you can try.

I am doing the Dr Natura Colonix, only sold online..but it is really expensive. My friend lost 8 lbs with it though, so I was all over that like white on rice.

hmmm im not sure, i have been taking them wrong by accident. I thought i had to take it in the am and in the evening. But its only evening. i know the first night taking them, by the next day i had to go, i went 3x that day. But regular bowel movements,no loose stuff. I do have to tell you, it must really be cleaning out your colon because it stannnnnnnnk

i looked at the dual action stuff. Thats why i ended up getting what i did. I didnt know want to get something expensive that didnt work

i dont know if you need to have an empty stomach, mine require taking it before bed
