You have to come to a point where you realize every diet fact is far from

I have thus far (being on my 2nd day) eaten two rather large watermelons. I decided to skip the gallon of water today, only drinking when I was thirsty. However I am drinking an herbal laxitive tea in the evening as well as taking an all na

Hi everyone!!
I have decided to do a 3-day watermelon cleanse which consists of only consuming watermelon (with seeds to promote extra colon cleansing) for 3 days.
I also will try to consume a full gallon distilled water with lemon during the day to reduce hunger and then a stimulant laxitive herbal tea in the evening.
I have not done a watermelon cleanse and was wondering if this is the way
