day 7
a week of fast!
Date: 1/27/2008 8:16:38 AM ( 16 y ) ... viewed 1886 times woo, i have made it to day 7! it has been a bit of a tough week weakness wise, but that time of the month is over now and whether it's that or the fact that i've perhaps moved into the next stage of fasting, or a combination of the two - i feel worlds better! i made it through the weekend, which included a friends birthday and a big group dinner at an amazing sushi restaurant last night. i have to say, the food smelled nice but i didn't have any desire to eat. actually, thinking of eating heavier food like the rice-wrapped sushi rolls and dumpings kind of made me queasy. i realized again how much i had been overeating.
i have to make note of my skin.. i think i mentioned it before but in the past year i've kind of been put off by my skin (on my face - i've never had a problem with the rest of my body, like the chest or back). my skin had always been clear and never oily throughout highschool, but since senior year i had been noticing in pictures that i was getting oily and it drove me crazy - i was always trying to powder it so it wouldnt show up in pictures, but it always did. i've been a little broken out this year due to stress and how i've been eating, but i have noticed my skin got worse as i started eating worse this year. now, although i've only been on this for a week, i had the minor breakout in the beginning of the fast, but now my skin is clear and silky soft, and i have noticed that i can go all day and barely notice any oil! its amazing.
also, i usually dont have much of a body odor besides the smell of my deodorant when i sweat, but i've noticed from that area a kind of almost sharper, spicy sweet smell.. which is strange haha. its a bit gross, but it feels great that my bodys going through this and really cleansing the toxins out and that i can even be so aware of it makes me even more set on allowing it a full run to cleanse.
i feel like after a tougher first week, it can only get better from here. i'm looking forward to learning more about myself and keeping up my mental strength to continue psychologically until my body is fully finished cleansing.
