DAYS: One and Two

Yesterday I received five boxes of Dr. Natura Colonix. The company only ships to the US and Canada, so my mom was kind enough to mail us the package. I immediately opened the box and took two of the pills with a glass of water. After waiting the required fifteen minutes, I mixed a 1/2 cup (provided in the bottle) of fiber with a glass of water and quickly (without trying to gag) drank the mixture down. It didn't taste bad, but I have issues with the texture. I drank another glass of water and went about the rest of my day.

After discovering that our little Korean island was to be without running water for five days (due to a break in the main water supply pipe) I decided that this was *not* the ideal time to be starting this program. C'est la vie; it is what it is.

That evening America won against Algeria and before I went to bed I remembered to drink my tea. It was pleasant and quite aromatic.

Realizing I probably did not drink the eight glasses of water required, this morning I took the two pills, drank a full glass of water; drank the fiber 15 minutes later and imbibed another 8oz glass of H20. I did have a gurgly stomach and several visits to the loo. Nothing to write home about. I'm still looking and feeling quite bloated.

A few hours ago I delivered the other four boxes to the girls. Each of them will see if their husbands are interested in joining us for our experiment, but if not, it becomes their second months' supply. They were both excited and I'll gather their reports as soon as I can.

On a weight loss note, I currently weigh 52 KG or 114.5 pounds. My personal goal on the program (including running/biking and crazy amounts of soccer) is 48 or 49 KG by the end of the summer.

I can say I felt the same way about taste and texture. Ok, here goes my remarks: after reading the box instructions found out I have been using some of this herbs in the past in other sorts of supplements. In Brazil is very common to use almost 60% of what's written in the box on just about any vitamins for children even. Other remark is that if you drink 2 litters of water a day alone will clean your body, so...I'm really curious about this program AFTER the 5th day.

No wonder why they double the amount you should take. But I promise to keep positive, after all, the mind is a very strong thing and if I don't want it to work, nothing will make me poop like crazy.

Hummmm sorry, just forget about my previous comment! I mean, 13:00 and twice to the loo?! Talk about some weird stuff!!


Penha-

I started the program on a Thursday night with the tea. On Friday, I began by taking two of the Paranil capsules and fifteen minutes later, I drank a half spoonful of Colonix fiber diluted in water. Following the instructions, I drank at least two liters of water.

I frequented the restroom much more often than before, probably four or five times compared to one.
