So for those of you who have been following my blog about colonics, this post is completely dedicated to the 3 colonics that I had in one weeks time. So my second one was on Tuesday (7/15) and the final one was on Thursday (7/17). Well, it was indeed an experience. Nothing gets you used to sticking the tube up your butt, but its what you just have to suck it up and do. I hope I'm not painting too terrible a picture, but more of a realistic one.
How much weight have a lost? Well, it's hard to tell b/c I have since started my menses and I know I'm carrying water from that. I did however, lose 2" from my pouch area prior to bloating up for my cycle.
Do you feel different? I feel better knowing that I've released a lot of crud and crap from my colon and that my digestive system is working optimally now that I've done so. I think there is some placebo effect here, in that you expect to feel so much better that you actually do. I have had several people tell me that I'm glowing. I don't know if I should attribute that to the colonics or my sweet thang.
What's next? The next step in detoxifying my internals is to do a liver flush which you actually do at home. I have a large pdf. file to read that tells me what to do and so far I know that there is a lot of olive oil to be consumed so I'm already afraid, very afraid.
After I complete the liver flush I intend to continue with colonics at least one a month, maybe twice, just depends. Overall, its been a good experience and I would recommend it, especially if you've never had one.
I just got home from spin class a little while ago and I'm tired and now going to the chaise to watch tv and nap until its time to get up in the morning and get the cardio/weights going again. Man, I'm motivated!!! Wait......does that sign say ONDERLAND AHEAD!!!!! C-ya there!
be and do well.....

You are so brave to do this! And so brave to tell us about it! I wanted to thank you for the information. I've always wondered about it, but after reading your posts, it really doesn't seem too terribly awful. However, I might have flushed a little when you were describing your first visit. I think I'd be embarrassed. :(
..."shit" jokes anyway. Guess it was getting kind of lame. Hmm, well you definitely have me thinking or wondering what the heck is in my insides clinging to the walls. (eew)
Sorry to hear about your running, i was sure that someday we'd be meeting up at a half marathon someday. But of course, you gotta take care of you. Maybe one more try once you hit goal weight? I keep envisioning that running will become easy and I'll be all speedy and ache-free once i hit goal. It's probably b.s. and wishful thinking.
HEY FELICIA!!! I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU AND PROUD OF YOU! I AM GLAD YOU GOT SOMETHING GOOD OUT OF YOUR COLONIC. I AM THINKING ABOUT GETTING ONE DONE NOW. I AM SURE I HAVE A LOT THAT CAN BE CLEANED OUT. I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF A LIVER FLUSH I HAVE TO READ UP ON THAT! ONEDERLAND IS SO CLOSE AND I AM REALLY HAPPY FOR YOU. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK HAVE A GOOD WEEK!
You are one hop, skip and jump away from ONEDERLAND and I could not be more proud of you! I **just** blogged about my goal of reaching 199 land by the end of September. Don't know how realistic that is or if my body will agree but I'm going to put in work to get there!
