Day 2 turned into a water fast. What's up with that??
Today was STRANGE. Usually I have tea at night, and it works VERY WELL in the morning. Today, it wasn't happening, so I had the morning cup of tea as well. Then I went back to bed after I got the kids on the bus. I was sleepy most of the day, and just wanted water when I woke up. Even the thought of food or lemonade turned my stomach, so I just had the one cup of tea and water today.
My upper pallette and my tongue were thickly coated, and I had to brush my tongue/mouth several times (I use baking soda). My excema suddenly got MUCH worse, and I woke up scratching my arms several times; to the point of bleeding! So I had to give in and use some topical cream.
I got the kids home from the bus stop (2 trips) and then went back to bed. I read books and dozed off and on all afternoon, and then got up and made dinner for the kids. Hubby was working late, so I had to do the whole thing, but the food still wasn't tempting at all. I got them set at the table and then showered, dressed, and we all went to a meeting tonight. Now its almost 11 pm and I'm still on a high. I feel great. I still am not hungry at ALL. So I guess today was my first 24 hour water fast. I'm going to force myself to drink my lemonade tomorrow, because I can't spend another day in bed. But I've had a new experience, and whatever was wrong with me seems to have passed.
