The second hoovering wasn't as painful as the first - don't know if I'm more used to it, or if it was the paracetamol I took on the way there. Either way, it was much better!
Got some new sachets having read some of the recipes on the forum - looking forward to the week. And I've put 8 beads on my bracelet.

Day 9
Still doing well - easier now I've discovered that not everything needs an electric blender - so I'm getting a bit more texture in my food, and not everything is like wallpaper paste.
First weigh in tomorrow. I'm a bit apprehensive, but pretty confident that I've lost some. My trousers feel more comfortable already - must get measured later too.
I've been finding the forum for Alizonne patients useful and inspiring. One lady said she'd bought a bracelet and adds a bead for every Kg lost, so she has a permanent reminder of how well she's doing. Think this is a great idea, and have just bought one as well. Think I'll use silver beads for a stone, and glass ones for a pound (I won't fit enough on otherwise!).

Day 2
Woke up feeling tired and hungry today. have joghurt mix for breakfast and it's like wallpaper paste. I have a banging headache - not sure if it's just a usual headache (I do get a lot of migraines) of if it's from detoxing.
Paracetamol here I come!

Alizonne food
Day 1 today
Breakfast - cinnamon and hazelnut porridge. I think I overcooked it a bit, must try just one minute next time, but it tasted nice, even though it's a bit like wallpaper paste.
Made a quick salad for lunch - not much time today so I haven't had anything that I've had to weigh or any dressing. I know today will be a bit boring, but I'll do some prep tonight.
Tea without milk isn't too bad - I'm sure I'll get used to it. There are also lots of tablets to take (since I'm not getting many nutrients from food and since my liver will process everything so quickly, I will need all the essentials every day). There's also an ampule of salty water, which contains all the trace elements and is a tonic for hair and nails etc. It tastes horrid, but the taste doesn't last.
Peach and mango juice was a bit of a disaster - tasted nice, but I didn't have a jug, so whizzed it in a big mug and it went everywhere! Only managed to save half of it, and there was plastic in the bottom - I think I missed some packaging off my new mixer! Doh!
Soup for lunch (after buying a jug) a bit watery and with powder at the bottom. Will use less water next time. Seems like I spend all day playing tip and pour - measuring water for all these sachets!
Mmm - hot chocolate! feels wrong when it's 20 degrees outside, but I've got air con on, so can pretend it's winter!
Going home to box up some salad and make some veg. Should be a bit easier tomorrow.
I've got a banging headache though - suspect it's withdrawl symptoms, not had much caffeine today. I haven't been hungry though, so that's good.

Alizonne Therapy
The ultrasound tingled and tickled a bit, and it was strange to have a beeping noise in my ears, but it wasn't painful or too bad at all. Then the hoovering began! The LPG (or wobbly-bit-sucking-machine) was quite uncomfortable, especially on my very flabby bits. The pain was very short lived though, the discomfort stops almost as soon as the machine moves on to a different bit of me.
I'm sure I'll get used to it eventually - I might even be able to think of it as a massage and enjoy it! (I hope)
