Day 9 Waterfast
Keeping busy during detox has its challenges. Sitting is the new smoking so I don't want to be totally sedentary while I fast.

Still have the so-called metallic taste in my mouth and white tongue. I can feel soft chunks in my teeth and on my tongue and wondered if I was imagining food caught in my teeth. But after an examination under flashlight I can see my throat is producing white stuff. Not phlegm. Soft white solid chunks. So I oil pull, brush and mouthwash more and scrape a glob of it off my tongue. Gross but hopeful sign. I'm detoxing! Yay!
Overall pretty comfortable day other than weakness and fatigue when trying to do anything strenuous (washing Windows, mopping, car wash) Still I'm determined to stay active to a reasonable extent. I go for a 20 minute walk everyday. And try not to sit for longer than an hour.
It's remarkable to me that the mental push through weakness and fatigue is not at all difficult in comparison to the strenuous push through depression that ultimately has been a losing battle for me. Until 10 days ago. Not that I think this fast is the end all be all to my lifetime of battling depression. But I needed something big to shift my thinking. I've long wanted to try a fast because of its therapeutic effects on depression. I am not disappointed.
