| Fasting Journal - Day 4 of Juice Fast
I woke up this morning and felt VERY WEAK. I also peed a ton during the night and didn't sleep well. I was very thirsty when I woke up and chugged a glass of water then got in shower. I felt weak and my stomach was very flat (I've lost 3 lbs).
So after the shower I had a half table spoon of honey to keep the blood sugar up. Crazy, the honey tasted so sweet. It was the most intense flavor I've ever tasted!
Then I sucked on a lemon to help with the acidity in my tummy. I had 2 cups of detox tea in the morning.
10:26 had a glass of water. Having to go pee a ton and having soft bowel movements.
I felt better after the honey and etc this morning. There are highs and lows for me on this fast. Aches and pains come and go quickly, but over all I feel pretty good.
Every once in awhile a meal will pop into my head that I want to eat. And as I go on the meals are more food vs sweets / desserts like it was in the beginning.
Also, I noticed that my skin is a bit dry. Don't know if this has to do with fast but thought I'd just put it in here. And my tongue is really white/gray. vs pink.
2:37 today has gone well. My tongue is constantly feeling dry - don't know what's up with that. I don't feel too hungry and kind just feel light and normal. Food hasn't been on my brain as much. Still peeing way more than normal.
Had 1/2 bottle of juice for lunch - 150 calories and had 2 teas. I feel a little tired.
Looking forward to my veggie broth dinner and the rest of my juice. It is crazy how I can survive on this.
Really does make you look at food/your body differently. We shall see how long I can last. I'm aiming for possibly 10 days depending on how I feel.
It is key doing this with a partner. My boyfriend and I have been updating each other and supporting each other. Vital! It would be crazy tough to do it on my own.
3:32pm I am hungry! Got some hunger pains and drop in energy.
4:10 Feeling very tired. I'm going to have some juice. Just want to take nap.
Next Day:
