Day 4: Less stomach pangs
About my day and relations.

Today, I drank less water than usual. I don't know if it's psychological or physical but I felt like I didn't need to drink as much. I am still weak with loss of focus here and there but not as much as yesterday. I noticed that my lips are dryer and my mom commented that it must be dehydration (even though I have been drinking adequately). She is worried I might get an ulcer from the acidity in my stomach but I have researced numerous testimonies and doctoral articles about how fasting can heal ulcers. She tells me to eat and we get into an argument. I don't want to argue but I need to keep doing this.
My face is a little bit clearer. My face isn't so red and my acne is drying out (I have stopped using topicals and use only a Murad cleanser in the morning and night). Once in a blue moon my face is white and clear but most days it is tan with redness. My stomach has less hunger pangs. Yesterday, my younger sister came in my room with cooked kidney beans, garbonzos, and corn and my stomach hurt really into the night. Today I politely asked her to eat out of my room. The thought of food still gives a slight pain in my stomach. Sometimes I am too weak to speak or use the laptop. I thought about not updating today, but I want to be consistent.
I don't know how my mother will react these next few days because she is a nurse, but I know I have to continue this fast. Nothing will stop me. It's alright she doesn't understand, but it's hard when there is no one to support you. It's okay because I have been left down by people these past years. I am no longer attached to people and have learned to respect and love myself above all. I am doing this for my health and well being and I am hoping and have faith that all will turn good.
Goodnight I am tired, see you tomorrow night.
