Still feeling "full" and bloated
SWF failed. Not feeling great, but continuing
Date: 4/1/2006 7:15:37 PM ( 18 y ) ... viewed 1823 times I am on Day 11 of pulpless liquids, and I still don't have that "empty" feeling I usually get while fasting, and I'm still holding fluids. But the inches are dropping, and the clothing is fitting better.
I missed my tea last night (too tired), so I took it this morning. It hadn't worked by 1:30, so I made myself a SWF (adding extra salt because it usually doesn't work for me, but I was desperate.) I only got about 2/3 of the quart down. Nothing happening other than feeling kinda sick. It didn't work very well, so I had a hard time staying on the treadmill (lasted 5 minutes). I took an apple cider vinegar bath (first time), and now I'm about to head to the local market for some produce to juice.
The family had salad for lunch. A GIANT salad, with optional shredded cheese and sliced grilled chicken. So much healthier than they usually eat for Saturday's lunch. My fast is definitely improving their intake! I took the pulp from my carrot/sweet potato/spinach juice and put it in the Vitamix. Added tomatoes, more spinach, a whole onion and 2 cloves garlic. Pureed it with water, and poured it in a pot. Then I added brown rice and let it cook in the broth. It started to stick to the bottom, so I transfered it to the crock pot, on low. Then I added a whole bunch of "cole slaw mix" and some frozen corn. They wanted MEAT, so added some chopped pork from the freezer. That'll be dinner tonight. And they have NO idea how much good vegees they will be getting in the broth!
Well, hopefully I'll feel better soon. I think the SWF made it worse, because I'm much more puffy and up 1.5 pounds! It'll flush out at some point, but I think I might schedule a colonic. It's over an hour drive to the nearest, but I'm beginning to think I need it.
