Hi guys, it's day eight and I'm feeling really good. Last night I kept myself busy. Took my kids to the pool with a couple of my friends and their kids. I didn't juice at all, just had black coffee and one cup of broth (5 calories). I only drink the Smartwater when I feel the need, had about 40 oz yesterday. I'm doing really well, feeling great, don't have any desire to eat. I don't understand why I'm losing so much so fast. I keep thinking it's water, but 6 pounds of water is just ridiculous. Oh well, I guess I'll just get to my goal that much sooner =).
I've noticed that my energy comes and goes during the day, right now I feel just fine, but around noon or so I'll probably need a nap, then I should be fine after that. I'm loving my daily baths. Don't know if you care, but my bowels have seemingly stopped. I also have a coating on my tongue this morning for the first time,.. yummy. Weird that it took this long.
I'm still allowing myself to taste any foods that I want but I just make sure not to swallow and I rinse my mouth out afterwards. This is especially handy for those psychological cravings, you know how you convince yourself that certain foods will taste like Heaven, then you find after breaking the fast that it wasn't at all worth it? Well, I've solved that problem for myself, at least. It works for me, which is what I've based this entire fast on. It's working, isn't it? =)
I'm off of my Thyroid medication (I was hypo), I haven't taken it since day one, but I didn't know if I'd have to go back on them or not. I'm doing surprisingly well without them.
