Have tried this diet previously before the BIG DAY and it was quite effective.
Was able to achieve a smaller waist line and felt more alert/energetic as a result.
As quoted in Stanley Burrough's book (inventor of the Lemonade Diet), the following ingredients are required:
2 (tbs). of lemon or lime
2 (tbs). of genuine maple syrup
1/10 tsp cayenne pepper
10 oz. water (hot or cold as preferred)
More information can be found here.
Have lost the previous recipe copied off the net but basically the version I used was a diluted one in the sense that I added water to the mixture whenever I felt that it was too concentrated. My rationale was that since water is allowed to be consumed together with this mixture, it did not seem to matter how much water I have added to it.
Have been feeling sluggish/lazy/irritable using the past few weeks (must be from the numerous fast food deliveries and countless scrumptious roti prata from the 24 hours prata shop downstairs at Ang Mo Kio St 52) and decided it is time to restart this diet.

Have bought the above items yesterday and will be starting the diet this afternoon. As per my previous attempt, I will cut out fried stuff from my diet during this period but I will be having my meals as per normal and will not be surviving solely on this diet. No doubt this will result in much slower results but I am happy with the results so far.
One thing to note is that you will be needing the toilet quite frequently especially at the start of this diet so it is advised to start during a weekend.
Hope that I will be back to the energetic me soon with less headaches/body aches etc.

I like to drink at least 12 glasses of the lemonade beverage when on the lemonade diet. I tend to be really thirsty and it keeps my hunger from being bothersome. Extra purified water is good to drink, too, since it helps flush out the toxins in my digestive tract. I'm a big water drinker though.
