Day 6
Breaking the fast
Date: 10/23/2006 9:40:32 AM ( 18 y ) ... viewed 2523 times Well, today started off good. I did my SWF, drank my lemonade and had two bottles of water... than I started on my exam paper for school. I had already decided that since I have family coming into town in the next few days that I was going to break the fast today, but I was hoping to break it like a pro. Orange juice, fruit... that sort of thing.
Then my husband made pizza for dinner. I don't know why I didn't exercise the will power that I've exercized the last six days, but I didn't. I caved and ate two, small peices of pepperoni pizza (thin crust... not that that makes it better...) Of course I did this BEFORE I got the resource from the forum. I guess my thinking was "ahhh, it's only been 6 days... it's not like I was on a 20 or 40 day fast... one little piece won't hurt you..."
Weeell, I woke up at 2 a.m. feeling "strange." No abdominal pains but my heart seemed to be racing. I took my BP and PULSE and turns out that it wasn't my heart racing but my BP was VERY low.
I will never, ever do that again. Even if it's a TWO day fast! I'm breaking it with OJ for at least a day!
Here are the stats:
BP at 2 a.m.: 75/50
PULSE: 62
Prior to breaking the fast:
BMs: 4
WEIGHT: 202 (lost .5 pounds.)
SYMPTOMS:
none
BENEFITS:
See "Day 5" post. All is well. :)
