day 4
getting better!
Date: 1/24/2008 11:17:10 AM ( 16 y ) ... viewed 1704 times today's been going well.. i'm still definitely lagging on the energy, but i'm also feeling cramps and i know that its a lot to do with that time of the month, so i'm just sticking it out for the rest of the week with the hope that it has to get better from here haha. i still havent experienced any real hunger and i feel driven for this and i'm going strong. although my energy seemed to definitely go downhill, this morning i woke up feeling very very refreshed and awake, and it felt great.
(skip this if you dont want to read bm things..) i've been going to the bathroom frequently as i've been drinking about 3 - 4 liters of water per day, but my only bm since sunday has been yesterday after drinking the laxative tea on tuesday night. i'm used to one each day, and i don't want anything sitting inside of me this whole time. since i'm not eating anything to continue to push it through, i think i'm going to do a salt water flush with sea salt either this evening or tomorrow morning. i'm hoping that will help, as i'm wont be able to do an emena. ill see how im feeling later, but i've got a few more classes today.
update - i just got back from the dining hall with my friends, and i just had a cup of tea while i was there and was completely content. the dining hall in my dorm is completely organic so i've completely lucked out for that, and it made me appreciate food even more when i wasn't eating it. it was actually fun to notice all of the different textures and everything smelled really nice, but i can honestly say that i had absolutely no urge to eat anything, and after my cup of tea i'm feeling excellent. my energy is up and i'm looking forward to doing the rest of this! i guess today i've just been noticing how much i eat out of boredom, as its kind of something to do to munch on something while im doing another thing, and how often i eat when i really dont need to or even feel like it really. i'm hoping my energy stays up because its been a great day, and just this has helped a lot and given me more motivation for the rest of this - it doesnt seem at all daunting. i'm really looking forward to noticing more things and becoming more in touch with not only my body but also myself and my mental/spiritual self as my fast continues.
