Ok, I'm ending day 21. I did finally figure out the correct proportion of salt to water I need for the Kosher salt I have. I went with the following progression for salt in a quart of water:
2tsp: Nothing
2-1/4tsp: Nothing
2-1/2tsp: Nothing
2-3/4tsp: Nothing
3tsp: Nothing
3-1/4tsp: Something
3-1/2tsp: Bingo!
3-12tsp appears to be the best amount for me on this fast at this time. (But I had to absorb a lot of salt water to find this out).
I just haven't been consistent in doing the SWF. It's difficult when you have to get up early in the morning to leave. The last thing you need is for it to kick in while your on the train.
The Alvita Senna tea (which I've found is better than Smooth Move) seems to work most of the time by itself even though I only drink one 6 ounce cup before bed. (It doesn't work 100% of the time though).
Nevertheless, I'm now ending day 20, so I have only another 20 days (at least) to go.
