5th day on my fast! Yeah!!

I am doing well. I was really tired last night and tired this morning. I thought it might because I started my monthly and I lost track of it while I was focusing on my fast and didnt' realize it was so close to the begining of my fast. It always makes it hard during detoxing for me. But I am sure I will be ok.

I was just worn out and was planning on taking it easy, but it didn't happen. I went shopping, bought a flag for the 4th of July, a grill so when I back to eating and are safe enough to eat heavier solids, I can grill some chicken and veggies on it! I might just might not go for cooked food much again. I also helped my Uncle Loren (which is my friends Uncle Loren, but I just call him Uncle Loren) put up my awning on my trailer that blew off last week. We weren't able to finish it, but will do that on Tuesday. Tuesday will day 7 of my fast!

Still no detoxing symptoms and no hunger either. My Uncle Loren told me if I stopped by Burger King, he would buy me a Indy Burger, which I love. I told him no. I just told him I gave up all junk food and Sugar and I have been free of it for 5 days. He tried to give me some of the lovely donuts this morning but I said no to them as well. It was hard, because a part of me was very tempted. They looked very nice, but I just wasn't hungry. When I am not hungry, I just don't eat. But a part of me missing is just a bit, especially when I see other people eating at times. It is just AMAZING how much time a person spend eating and feeding their face a day. I guess that is why I am at loss. I WILL eat again. Ha ha ha. And I will enjoy and savor everything I put in my mouth because my taste buds will be refresh and renewed. It will be wonderful. I am excited about it but I can wait. I will wait!

I notice I have a funny taste in my mouth right now and my tongue is coated white. Yuck! I noticed I had a small bump/pustle on roof of my mouth in the back. I could feel it with my tongue and I ran my finger across it and it came off. It was weird because I have never had that before, but I know the human mouth can have all kind of germs and bateria. Maybe it was a part of detoxing. I dont' know. I only had one.
I haven't been as thristy as I was yesterday. I have only drank about 40 oz today and yesterday I drank more then that. I did have a bit of a sour stomach, which I always have when I am fasting. I was thinking bout taking a teaspoon of apple cider vineagar, which I read is suppose to help with that, if I keep having it.

My sinses have opened up and the left one that is normal clogged is open! I can breathe more freely and my sense of smell is getting better all the time. I could smell so much yesterday. Like the steak that was cooking at the cookout at my friend's house. It was just a feast to smell it, but it didn't make me hunger. I just enjoyed all the smells that are usually deaden to me because of my sinsus being clogged all the time. Darn those dairy products. I love cheese and milk but it doesn't havoc on my sinuses ever time. I am already feeling like a new person just in 5 days.

I wanted to buy some ketone sticks at the Walmart today like I used to have when I fasted in 2006 so I could keep track of my fat burning, which is always fun when I do that. It also helps me regulate the water intake in my body as well, knowing the more fat I burn, I might need a bit more water to help flush it out of my liver and bladder.

I walked about 5 miles yesterday, lest then the day before, but I was really tired and didn't do as much walking as I normally do. Right now I am at 4.99 miles and I am sure by the time I get to bed tonight I will be at 6 or close to 7 miles.

I did some praying today for a new person, Person A. I haven't heard from him in a week. It breaks my heart. I was thinking about him last night and started crying. I miss him but if it isn't in God's will, then I need to let go of it. I have been also praying for my mother and Person B's father as well.

I haven't felt God's presence much today, but I have been so busy today that I haven't taken the time to be still and be with God. I will do that tonight as I read my Bible and just pray. I enjoy my time with Him. It is so wonderful.

I will have to look over my goals and write them down on an index card so I have them on hand and put them in my Bible while I fast.

I hope everyone is doing well with their fasts and learning from them. You will feel like a new person and feel so refreshed as your body cleanses you of all the years of bad living.

Keep it up everyone. You CAN do it. Just tell youself. You WILL eat again. This is only tempoary and when you are done, you will enjoy it so much more. Believe me.
