Made it to Day 10
Are my scales broken??
Date: 7/14/2006 7:20:24 AM ( 18 y ) ... viewed 3156 times I have arrived at Day 10 of my 40 day fast. It has been really interesting to take on something like this. I feel like I am learning so much about myself and about the relationship I have had with food. It's sort of like a bad reltionship with a man.....sometimes you don't realize how messed up things were until that person is finally out of your life! I know that food will never actually be out of my life, but I have come to believe that I will never again be able to abuse rich, delicious, gourmet foods and alcohol as I once did. I had nearly gone 100% raw before this fast and I will return to that lifestyle when I am finished. I don't feel happy when I am overweight and I HATE having to buy fat clothes. Just eating raw for several weeks I went from 174 to 165.
Right now, the most baffling thing is that I haven't lost a single pound since Monday. It has been that time of the month but because of the lack of food in my diet, my period is already over. I am holding steady at 157 pounds and I even had a colonic yesterday afternoon....still no change. I am 5'7 and very small boned, so my ideal weight is probably somewhere around 130. To achieve my goal weight I would have to drop another 27 pounds by the end of my fast, which is in 30 more days. I am beginning to think that may not be a reality anymore, which makes me sad, but determined to continue, nonetheless. I would be so open for any suggestions from anyone who thinks they might know how I can kick things up a notch. I also power walk 4 miles everyday. I just bought a Pilates DVD and I think I will start that today.
