Easy Cleanse and Family History

So, Jess and I have been doing this cleanse that seems to be working really really well. We did it 2 weekends ago and each lost 4 lbs, and we are doing it again this weekend and I'm already down just over 5 lbs. We have both been so frustrated lately because we've been eating a lot better, watching our calories, going to the gym 4 times a week since October, but just haven't been seeing much by way of results. I've always wanted to do a cleanse but the ones at the store can be as much as 30 bucks, and I didn't want to do one THAT bad, but we found a recipe for one that you can make yourself and it seems to do the trick.  I feel like it has really boosted my metabolism to help me start drop some weight. Here's what you need for the recipe if you'd like to try it:

60 oz filtered water

12 tablespoons of RAW honey, make sure it saws "Raw" on the label (it has the enzymes you need)

12 tablespoons of lemon juice, not the bottled stuff but actually squeezed (squozed? squozened?) from lemons. They recommend organic lemons, but I don't believe in organin food (somewhere a hippy just lost his wings)

and last of all 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper.

Mix it all together. It's hard to get the honey stirred in but it will dissolve eventually. So find 2 days in a row that you can do this because you won't be eating for those 2 days, and then you just drink some of the cleanse throughout the day. Jess and I just have a glass every couple hours. This should last you the 2 days, so about 4 8oz glasses a day, and they you can drink just filtered water in between (and I would recommend it just to rinse the cleanse off your teeth as it's acidic)
And then that's it. The first weekend we did it we just did the cleasne saturday and then fasted sunday and it seemed to do fine. This weekend we are trying the cleanse for the full 2 days. You do this 2 weekends in a row and then take 2 weekends off and then 2 weekends etc until you've lost half of your goal weight, then once you've lost half you switch to just doing one day every other week after that. It sounds hard, and I thought it would be, but it actually hasn't been all that bad. Jessica has a hard time with the cayenne pepper, but don't cut it out because peppers are really good for metabolism. Also, you can add 32 drops of "cell food" or other liquid multivitamin. This increases the cost (cell food is about 30 bucks an ounce) but realize that you aren't eating food for 5 or 6 meals which for me is between 6 and 12 dollars, and the drops will last for 15-20 cleanses. Plus, the kids will have fun juicing the lemons. Win win.
Anyways, just finally found something that has been helping me get that boost I've needed and thought I would share with you all. If you try it (and I think you should) let me know how it turns out. I hope it works as well for you as it has for us.
