What followed..... Saturday morning.... the results of the Liver Cleanse

So the Epsom Salt mix divided into four servings was not as bad as I imagined it would be.... however the 4th serving was a struggle and I had to roll a Butterscotch boiled sweet around my mouth afterwards to stop me from retching!  There have got to be some rewards even though I had to spit it out to avoid a complete sugar rush  interfering with my efforts thus far! 
I had no bowel movements after the first 2 servings. 
Just before 10pm I squeezed my fresh ruby grapefruits and put the juice in the blender with the half cup olive oil.... this is definitely the way to go.  I was pleasantly surprised by how pleasant this 'mocktail' actually was!
I downed it in one go and climbed straight into bed as instructed by the book.  I eventually drifted off to sleep but awoke several times in the night eyes wide open feeling headache and nausea but not a severe as I expected.  No movements through the night apart from me being restless in bed trying to find my comfort.
On awakening I had a movement and to my huge disappointment - NO STONES!!!!
Drank third serving of Salts and went back to bed.... another movement - NO STONES!!!
Another movement.... NO STONES!!!! Another.... ONE STONE!  Another.... the start of some very small stones pea size and smaller like gravel.  Very bright green in colour which tells me from the book that these are new stones.  I drink the fourth serving of salts and 10 minutes later expel some BIGGER STONES.  Probably the size of my thumb nail same colour as previous ones. 
In order to catch the stones I am evacuating into a metal colander placed under the toilet seat to catch these stones for 'inspection'!  This is not for the faint hearted but instantly gratifying!  I did expect bigger and more abundant stones but I can assure you there are plenty of gravel-like tiny stones.  There are also suggestions in the book to achieve a more effective cleanse the next time.  For example drinking Chinese Bitters 3 weeks prior to cleanse or freshly squeezed lemon juice on its own on waking for a week prior.

Ensure this is done over a very quiet week end so you are totally home bound and can relax and feel the benefits of this rejuvenating cleanse.  At present I feel weak and tired from a disturbed nights sleep and of course no food since yesterday (Friday) morning.  I hugely regret not having that lunch yesterday but certainly look forward to some freshly pressed grapefruit juice around midday today, followed by plenty of Coconut Water which is full of electrolytes that need replacing after the purge.  Then I have a lentil and steamed rice late lunch and poached salmon and vegetable dinner on the menu.  Tomorrow its pretty much back to normal re-introducing things slowly but I think I am certainly going to continue the avoidance of wheat and dairy.  Coming into Hayfever season soon, this would be a good thing for anyone who suffers as these 2 culprits really aggravate symptoms. 
Doves Farm Organic wheat and gluten free pasta is a very pleasant alternative to regular wheat and gluten laden pasta.  Gluten sticks to the intestinal wall and prevents nutrients being absorbed.  It is usually one of the chief suspects where food allergies are concerned. 
Watch this space.... I will post pics of the resulting stones that my liver and gallbladder continue to expel throughout today.
