What a hard day...

One week!  When you are fasting, every milestone seems so exciting, and one week is no exception.  I am so proud of myself for making 7 days, even if I have done so several times before.  It just seems like such a barrier.

Today was a tough day.  I woke up feeling like I hadn't gotten enough sleep, which is probably true since I went to bed at 12:30PM.  I was rushed to get to work, so I didn't have time to squeeze orange juice, so I only took a quart of distilled water (I never drink any other type of water).

I sipped on the quart from 8:00am until 7:00pm, my work and school hours. 

The whole day, I felt lethargic and tired.  My muscles felt like they were empty and there was no blood to move them.  I was dizzy and unable to lift large amounts of weight.  It seemed that I was dehydrated again.  Knowing that the water had to last me 11 hours, I rationed it out over the day, but it never seemed to be enough.  What a day!

When I got home, I quickly juiced 3 apples, 3 carrots, and a bunch of spinach and sipped it away quickly along with 6 FEN-LB pills.  So far, no bowel movements today, although I am hopeful for later.  If there is no bowel movements today, I'll have to do a salt water laxative or an epsom salt laxative tomorrow (my day off). 

Good things:
    My 3 hours of Buisness Law class were a breeze, and I never lost focus once.
    I feel MUCH better now that I had my juice
    My sense of smell has increased even FURTHER, which is amazing.  I was able to smell a bag of chips opened DOWN THE HALL (at least a hundred feet away).


BTW, If anyone is fasting at the same time, and you need a buddy or someone to talk to, let me know, I'll help anyone who needs it.
