1 week!!!

Ok, I can not believe I made it!!!  Today I was a little more energy but I went and got a full body 1 hour massage to get alll the toxins out of my system.  Still having RLS but went to the Health food store and got a few things.  If it works, I will post tomorrow,  Thanks to all the encouraging words for all!!!  For all you of considering stopping and you are scared, it is so worth it!  There will always be an excuse, I had one everday.  Needed to clean house better, that laundry thing,lol, someones coming over.  Just do it!!  I hope I can encourage even one person.  God has played a huge role in my detox.  In  the shower I cry to Him and I feel better..

We can do this.  If any of you can afford it, get a massage,  Think of the $$$$  you are saving from pills.  It is great to detox and it is a way to reward yourself.  Tell them you have been sick and you want a good deep detox massage. AFTER DRINK LOTS OF WATER.  I will post tomorrow on my RLS.  I hope it works.  I never got sweats I think I just cut so low before detox.  I better go, my eyes are getting sleeping from Nyquil.  What ever it takes at this point....

Congratulations!.  Great accomplishment.  Try naproxsyn (aleeve) for RLS.  It really helped me.  I also got a one hour massage yesterday.....it was nice. I may get another next week (not that I can afford it but what the heck).

Let me know if the stuff you got at the health food store helps.  I picked up some amino Fuel today.  Oh I am on day 5......I feel better today. I have been walking a little outside too...that helps.  Have your cold sweats stopped yet?  I am still battling that.

Congrats again.

ONE week is great...I wish i had better advice for the RLS, by far that was my worst part of w/d's, i used heating pads, hot baths, ate enough bannanas to turn into a damn monkey, soap under sheets...And it just time
