Day 34 of 40-Day Fast - Real Thirst or Hunger?

Today is day 34 of my 40-Day Fast. Yesterday, and today, I've been feeling a dry lump in the back of my throat, just inside where my voice box is (to give you a better idea of the location). I'm wondering if that's "real thirst" or "real hunger" to which Dr. Shelton was referring.

Of all the signs he mentions, the only one I'm having is the semi-clear tongue. Although I taste a sweetness in my mouth, my urine is still dark, my body temperature is still lower than average, and my eye sight is pretty clear (which cleared up by day 3).

I'm also feeling unusual sensations in my digestive system. I don't know any other way to describe it other than hunger pangs (which is normally felt in between meals when eating regularly).

The sensations in my throat together with those in my stomach/gastro-intestinal system is making me wonder if I'm at the end of my fast, regardless of my 40-day goal.

This is where I am now. I'm hoping to keep pushing forward, that these sensations will pass, either in part or completely, by Sunday. If so, then I'll proceed. If not, then I'll re-evaluate before continuing.

All feedback, welcomed.
