Day 5 - So far so good

So I woke up this morning with a TON of energy! I wanted to get up and go someplace or do something so...since West was still sleeping I got up and made my lemonade for the day and planned on maybe starting some laundry or something but the juice woke him up so I watched TV with him until he had to go to work.
I made the lemonade with the CORRECT amount of cayenne pepper and I still don't like the taste much. Maybe 1/4 tsp instead of a 1/2tsp? Maybe I'll get used to it...I'm sure there's a science in the amount of ingredients that makes this lemonade and I'd hate to screw that up lol
As for the tea, it didn't have the same effect I thought it would. I drank the tea and expected to be up at like 5am but I woke up around 9 and nothing. I was beginning to think it wasn't working but it eventually did around ten and it really was a comfortable, normal experience. Nothing like when I've taken a laxative before and I have a feeling maybe I didn't make the tea strong enough because I'm sure there was supposed to be more of an effect that what really happened (without giving you too many gross details lol)
I lost another 2lbs when I got on the scale this morning! I'm planning to do some chores today and keep my mind off the fully stocked fridge lol weekends are hard!!
