I'm working on my 6th day of the lemonade diet, and instead of losing weight, I actually gained! I got my period two days ago and I don't know if that has anything to do with it (since I always gain weight while on my menstrual cycle), but either way I find it very discouraging. Has anyone else experienced this?

Menstration is definitely a form of elimination, during your period the detox will be intensified, but this is a good thing if you can endure it, this time of the month often will accelerate the elimination of toxins, menstruation is in itself a bodily process of elimination. Don't be surprised if your period is hastened and ends earlier than normal. But, in the instance that it would linger a bit longer, then you know your toxic situation required additional cleansing.

The weight gain is a sign of heavy detox, which is not uncommon during menstration, make sure you keep your bowels moving...continue the herbal laxative tea at night and the SWF in the morning.

BTW, having your period will generally cause fluid retention (edema) which often converts into weight gain or at least a lack of weight loss.
