Re: almost day 5

Thank you. You are on day 19?!? You're amazing. I can't imagine going more than 10 days. I hope that 10 days is enough to become a "regular" person. I sat watching part of a ballgame last night when a friend walked in with a bucket of chicken and sat in front of me eating two chicken thighs and a plate of greens. I had leetle hunger pains. I admit that I even wondered about chewing and spitting out a bite. BUT I DIDN'T. I am amazed that I haven't eaten for four days. I am amazed how much eating shapes my life, i.e., I get to the middle of the day and want lunch, get to the end and want dinner and there's shopping and preparation. What do I do with that time spent on food? It's such a personal challenge to go within. I did a yoga class last night and focused on having a clear intestinal tract. I sit with myself and just think about letting go - literally and figuratively - intestinal waste, fear, whatever. This is all such a challenge. But more than 10 days? I don't know about that.
