Re: day 9 of water fast

Hey Sacristia,

You know, I've been reading this forum for months before actually participating, and I could not agree with you more about being sad at not seeing some posts. I remember Fonti, and Chrisb, and latinmess, and I am glad mouseclick is still here, but many of their posts were full of information. That's honestly where my motivation really started. Reading the links to Dr. Sheltons site. But Sacristia,
there are others still here, and who knows, maybe they'll be back to impart their wisdom, when we CONTINUE to post positively. THE FORUM still stands, and as long as it does, you have a place to come to, though the posters are different. When I see stupidity, I simply ignore it, and continue on to post encouraging things. People who post to entice debates know what they are doing. Sometimes in our kindness and need for dialogue we unknowingly engage them, and that is where some have gotten caught up.

"Where there is no wood, the fire goes out."

I'm on Day 10 and would give my left hand for a chicken salad sandwich right now. But reading your post is giving me the strengh to summon 1 more day. Sometimes we don't want to deal with the emotions of another individual, explaining ourselves. I know I have some crazy things I deal with, and I have a T in my life that I refuse to call, because I am...oh I don't know. But, since we know that the fasts over 7 days or so get us all stinky and emotional...well now you have to breathe, and figure out something to do to get through this day to Day 10...just get through Day 10, and I will try to get through Day 11. You're doing fine.

Just breathe, and find a good ipod or some mood music..I don't know what you like, but nothing sets the tone like music.
