Day 28. Good enough for me. I've had enough of this mental fortitude stuff. I've spent the last week sleeping, I guess it was a lot like bed rest after all. So, I'm glad I challenged myself. I feel really good. Now the real challenge begins. Unprocessed, unrefined, uncooked wholesome foods for a while. I now know ( I really get it) I'm actually really sick from this disease, that the disease won't get me, but eventually the complications might. I have to fear every cold, with every cough. I'll have to stand vigilant that every headache might really be an infection ready to kill.
This juice fast was a great experiment for me. I learned a lot over a month. I intend to incorporate fasting into my routine, the first several days are the best, so why not enjoy them? Today I woke up at 184 pounds. Pretty amazing testament to the power of fasting for weight loss! My lymph nodes are much smaller as well. I've been dreaming about exercise and mountain climbing, about camping and mountain biking. My next experiment will be in attempting to slightly improve my lung function. It was pretty dismal on my last function test. I want to go climbing on Mt. Adams this August with my friends from church, and I'll need to get into shape. Something cool to look forward to.
I haven't posted in a few days, I was feeling pretty run down. I think the fast would have been very difficult for me if I'd been working. I spent a whole lot of time circumspect, moping, euphoric, depressed, indifferent, an entire range of emotional states of being. I also spent a lot of time trying not to feel by reading and sleeping and just sleeping and plain old sleeping. But sleeping heals. Now I get to ramp digestion back up, and start eating glorious food again. (With extreme caution, and due diligence of course.)
