Weirdly enough, this actually did work for me, first try. Granted, there were a lot of other factors involved that could have had an effect on it. For example, I was sleeping at a relative’s house, I used WBTB, and I ate over half of a decently sized turkey that night (I was fasting, previously) . Also, I get the feeling that the result was partway psychological for me; I just believed that the V8 thing would work.
…still, it’s a success, isn’t it? Oh, and for all the curious folks out there, I used V8 Splash, so I didn’t have to deal with the weird taste .
