Re: Fasting (to completion?) - My Journey to Health

Ohhhhh the pain!!!

I've hit the wall. In the last two hours I'm getting raging food cravings. Phantom images of all my favourite foods, dishes I haven't thought of for years are coming back to me. Man, this is so intense. No wonder I always break on the second day.

I must be literally on the brink of switching over fuel sources. Probably at that interim stage where you switch from glycogen to amino acid catabolism to ketosis. Must be, otherwise I wouldn't feel like I was STARVING!!!!!!!

ARRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGHHHHH!

Ok, I'm going to take Mighty Sun Tzu's advice and drink a heap of water and go for a brisk walk. See if that helps.

I swear I'm having hallucinations that I can SMELL food cooking. I'm afraid to leave the house and go into town, because if I do I know I will cave the instant I see someone eating. I'd rip a burrito out of someone's hand and shove it in my face right now!

This is even more hardcore than quitting smoking! Damn. So much harder.

Ok walking now. Glad I live in a forest!
