Entering day 6 of 42. 11.5 lbs lost and feeling great!
Hey there!
Wow, I'm just finished day 5 and I'm doing pretty good! I'm definitely thinking of food, but it's not overwhelming. Keep thinking of the fish in fish n chips...how crisp and tasty the batter is...and cashews! Raw cashews! I want 'em!
But I'm doing okay. Was a little weak yesterday, but got through it ok.
I'm fighting a basketball sized ovarian cyst (20cmX18cmX8cm), and I'm trying to rejuvenate some apparently highly stressed organs (liver, kidneys and lymph glands, mainly, but my bladder, uterus and large intestine are stressed too...likely from the weight of a big cyst in their midst). I know that my liver congestion has been the catalyst to this cyst (inability of the liver to process and breakdown estrogen, causes estrogen dominance, causes a big fat cyst!). As a result, further cleansing and building of the liver is the most important result that I want from the fast. Of course, autodigesting the cyst and my body fat is also important, especially since fat apparently stores and produces more estrogen...I will always be compromised in my healing if I have excess fat.
Without the estrogen dominance, and with a clean system, the cyst just goes away.
Speaking of fat loss, I'm just amazed at how quickly I've lost weight this time around. 11.5
pounds over 5 days is pretty hefty weightloss.
It's all good.
On to day six!
