End of Day 1
My goals and thoughts for Day 1
Date: 12/1/2014 7:53:25 AM ( 10 y ) ... viewed 8496 times Today wasn't too difficult. I did have moments where I wondered what on earth I'd gotten into when I felt hungry but I've been mentally preparing myself for this for a while and I wasn't going to crack from this.
The thing I'm worried about most is .. BOREDOM. I realize this is going to be a tough emotional/spiritual/mental journey as well as a physical one. I've always known that I rely a fair bit on food to fill that void in me whether it be emotional/spiritual.. It's quite frightening not to have that cushion to fall on. But that's one of the many reasons I decided to do this fast. I want to address and confront my emotional reliance on food.
My other goals:
- Gaining self-confidence by proving to myself that I can do this. I know water fasting is no walk in the park and 30 days is going to be insane. I'll be quite proud of myself if I can make it through. I lack a lot of self-esteem so this is a big motivator for me.
- Weight loss. My starting weight is 68.3kg/150.6lb. I'm hoping to reach 55kg/121.3lb by the end of the 30 days. The weight loss would serve as another boost of confidence. I've been chubby my whole life. I know that slimming down isn't going to fix all my self-esteem issues. But I want to experience something different and see where it leads me. I want to know what it feels like to be slim and the things I can do without feeling like my body image is holding me back. I want to improve my own body image. I feel water fasting can be dangerous if you go in with a negative mindset of 'punishing' your body. I'm doing this with positive energy. I want to heal my body and change myself both inside and out.
- Detoxing. Lately I've been so tired even though I don't do much since it's the summer holidays now so it's definitely got to do with my health. I'd like to detox all the crap in my body and improve my health. Well, I don't think 30 days would be enough but it'll be a good start. Depending on how things go with this fast, I'd like to try another one at the end of next year.
