Day 2 of break - a lesson learned and words of caution
Oh boy I made a mistake... not the way to end my fast
Date: 7/16/2006 7:25:11 PM ( 18 y ) ... viewed 3652 times I finished up yesterday in great spirits and spent a wonderful night with my BF. I really am lucky to have him; he's been supportive through this whole thing. Thanks Babe. :) Anyway, we went for a walk down by the riverfront, walked through the casino and ended up home around 9pm. That's pretty much my Saturday night- and I loved it. I had alot of energy for the most part, but towards the end of the walk I was feeling a bit light headed so we actually cut it short.
I stuck to the fresh squeezed OJ all day, even though I couldn't wait to have some broth tomorrow. I kept my water up too- very important.
But today was a new day. I woke up and I was a bit tired. I had 3 OJs before 1pm and the last one I added some maple syrup for a few more calories and hopefully give me a little burst of energy. We were planning on going to the market for some fresh fruit and veggies... I couldn't wait to eat the things we were picking up. I've had a craving for steamed broccoli, lol.
We got back around 3 and that's where I made a huge mistake. I decided to eat a bunch of the green grapes we picked up, and not just that; I had a handful of raw almonds too. I know; I came so far only to make a complete mess at the end. It really did me in; I was pretty much couch bound the rest of the night. Here it is 8:15pm and I'm struggling to even write this entry. So please don't take the breaking lightly... I got too overconfident and now I'm paying for it.
I went for a light bikeride about an hour ago but it didn't help; there's a rock sitting in my tummy. I don't have anymore lax tea and I'm not doing a SWF; I'll see how I feel tomorrow and if it's anything like this I'll take a lax tea in the morning; I have some at work still.
Funny thing is- the almonds didn't taste great. They were once one of my favourite things but this time they were so bland. The grapes were great... but the almonds, not so much. I wonder if I'll go back and finish them. Odd.
Anyway, I don't know what to do with myself right now. I still feel horrible. I hope I feel better tomorrow. Ugh, what a stupid thing to do.
*sigh*
