I have had no cravings at all.  I&#8217;ve been hungry &#8212; or rather, I&#8217;ve had the inclination to eat &#8212; several times today, but nothing overwhelming at all.  In fact, I&#8217;ve not even had overwhelming urges to drink the lemonade.  Since this is Aimee&#8217;s first time, she&#8217;s had cravings pretty much all day: cinammon rolls and deep-dish chicago style cheese pizza in the morning, and homemade spinach\/tomato pizza this evening.  And, we stopped by this new plaza near here that has a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.coldstonecreamery.com\">really good ice-cream shop<\/a> in it.  As we walked by it on our way to a gift shop, she was quite tempted by it.   She&#8217;s being strong though, which is great.  We&#8217;re done with Day 2 now, which means that we have a little over a week left!<\/p>\n<p>Oh yeah, <a href=\"http:\/\/planet.gentoo.org\/developers\/seemant\/2006\/12\/02\/the_master_cleanse_day_1\">remember<\/a> how I said the salt water flush tasted posionous.  Well, it&#8217;s no wonder.  Remember kids, don&#8217;t do things when you&#8217;re lacking sleep.  Instead of two teaspoons of salt per quart of water, I put in two tablespoons per quart.  That explains the nausea, the incredible thirst, etc.  Today&#8217;s flush was very light &#8212; I think my body absorbed all the water instead.  Weird, because I did drink quite a lot of water yesterday all day.<br \/>\nAimee had early morning class, so she skipped the flush.   The senna tea did have a painful effect on her this morning though.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s weird to see what she&#8217;s going through with familiarity from having been through it myself.  I&#8217;ll say that so far, this second cleanse is going a lot more easily for me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today was a pretty good today. I have had no cravings at all.
