Day 1 of 33 Day Fast - 13.5 Hours In
It's a mental battle all the way
Date: 8/5/2008 12:22:31 PM ( 16 y ) ... viewed 3086 times Okay. So I think that I am going to be posting many many many many many times throughout this fast as a way to help keep me on track. It's lunch time and I am already falling back into my old pattern of thinking about rationalizing not starting today. Here is how my thought process goes:
1. 33 Days is not a number of days that falls into a standard time frame (ie. week, or month, so I can eat for the next 2 days so I will fast for a standard 31 day month)
2. Today is a day with many fast food specials going on and I want to eat that food.
STOP!
Why do I keep thinking like that? When those thoughts popped into my head I forced myself to drink a cup of water to try and alleviate some of the hunger feelings.
I have to keep thinking about sushicatny's face and how approx. 30 pounds lost while fasting made her look so great. She managed to get down to 143 in that amount of time! If I stay on this fast and achieve at least the amount of weight she lost I would be into the 30's!!! And I haven't been there for since approximately 10 years ago.
My plan is to make myself drink a cup of water everytime I have a thought of breaking and if I need to come onto the site and post (even if I repeat myself a hundred times) becasue it may take my mind off of it long enough for me to not break and take a bite of food. This is going to be such a mental battle!!!
I can kind of feel myself calming down and the desire to achieve results settle in. I keep seeing sushicatny's face and it is a real motivator. If she can do it so can I!
