I think fasting can really suck. I often want to quit but I don't write it down because information of my busy-ness is a better distraction to read.

But I am at the point in my life where I know I just don't want to go back to how crappy it used to be, when I felt as if I could not breathe. I just don't want to dump myself with my drugs and binge/purge cycles. I don't want to walk down the road of a screw-up.

What I want is a life. I want to be able to breathe. I just want to be normal. I want good skin.

So hell yeah fasting does suck at times. Because I want to actually eat, but I am not hungry at all. It is just crappy. That's why I can't quit. Because to move forward in the right direction is way better than regressing in the wrong direction.

I will be more honest now in my blog. Speak the truth. Less distracting writing.

Film to watch: 28 days
Synopsis: Gwen Cummings (Sandra Bullock), a successful N.Y. journalist and ultimate party girl, loves to have a good time! Trouble is, she never can tell when she's had enough. When she borrows her sister's (Elizabeth Perkins) wedding limo and plows it into someone's front porch, the wild life she shares with her boyfriend, Jasper (Dominic West), comes to a screeching halt. She earns herself a DUI and a 28-day stretch in rehab. There, she faces an unthinkable set of rules (no cell phones!) and some strange rituals, like chanting and (gulp!) sharing her feelings. Joining up with an eccentric group of fellow rehabbers led by the inimitable Counselor Cornell (Steve Buscemi), Gwen embarks on a touching and often hilarious road to recovery where she learns that life is not always a party and that real happiness comes from within.
