Day 4 went pretty well, since I am a waitress one day a week, I told myself before the fast that on working days only, I can have diluted fresh oj juice. I brought it to work with me and literally only had 5 sips. I really did not need it. I did not feel light headed at all. My job usually prepares employee meals for us to eat and of course on the day I'm fasting they make my favorite. Oh well..it was nice to smell, but I know I'll have my reward in the end.
Im starting to notice that seeing food commercials does not bother me anymore. I feel like I'm almost losing interest in some of the junk food I love, keyword SOME. Even though I do not plan on ending this fast anytime soon I cannot wait to begin my healthier lifestyle. Anyways today is day 5 now so I think I've successfully made it over that first hump. =)
For anyone who is reading this on day one or contemplating doing a fast..seriously if I can make it to Day 5, you can make it to day 10 lol, Im one of the weakest (mentally) people you will ever meet when it comes to food and I'm doing this. It takes alot of mental strength but its doable.

This is a reply to # 1,793,987Great job ,and you are right. You make it past day 5 its much easier. If you start feeling faint then do some juice preferrably juice with higher sodium in it. You would gain back some water weight but it would help as the dizzyness/fainting feelings would be low blood pressure. Don't drink too much water only when thirsty. Don't need much water on fast few glasses a day.

Thank you for that! I keep putting off day 1 and now I am officially on it. I have put notes up around the house, on the fridge, everywhere! I know I can do this and you all are a huge inspiration!
Good luck!!!!! Can't wait to see you on my day 4 =)

This is a reply to # 1,793,987This was inspirational for me!! :) I'm on Day 3, and almost caved today and ate, but thankfully I took a minute to think about it, and stayed strong (well...not STRONG, but barely strong enough lol). You are so right about having the reward in the end--I keep reminding myself of that!!
I know what you mean about not being affected by food as much. I am still having a desire to eat (and some of it bad food), but I'm mostly daydreaming about the healthy food I'm going to eat after the fast is over. I'm so excited to start a new healthy eating lifestyle! I never thought I'd be excited over healthy food :D

MoreThis is a reply to # 1,794,126To firstfast: you are doing wonderful, going on day 5, keep it up. Even if you can try to get to day 10, it will make all the difference.
And when I am fasting (I am starting new today) I don't think about fast food or even healthy food. I am just too busy thinking about new clothes that I can fit into. That's what keeps me going. And best of all, when I am fasting I have the most energy -it's even hard to sleep a full eight hours (that's the worst). - Re: Day 4 firstfast4me

This is a reply to # 1,794,126YES the reward is going to be at the end. I cannot wait to get in the 170s, obviously thats not my goal but its one of those "milestones". just keep imagining how good you are going to feel at the end. =) u can do it.
