Have Not Lost Fast After ALl!!! 36 Hours So Far

In 4 minutes I will have been successfully fasting 36 hours. I got an e-mail from a curezone reader that encouraged me to go on fasting. This may have been what made the difference. I can go on now. I will definitely make it to the 48-hour mark. Then I will be in Day 3. I feel funny -- have some detox symptoms. I am slightly swollen (edema [very slight]) all over my body. My cold (congestion) is gone. As I write I feel more normal. I was scared by my detox symptoms last night. I was quite scared. Feeling dizzy for a couple of seconds, feeling lightheaded, just as I was lying in bed. Feeling like my breathing was stopping. A weird, frightening thing lasting only 1 second but enought to scare me and almost make me lose the fast. I AM SO GLAD I DID NOT EAT!!!!! I can stay true to my VISION NOW!!!!!! It is easy to fast now, with this vision supporting me. The vision is of how I will go to school unanxious, present for others, undepressed, an improved person -- better than when I left!!! I will be a positive force and I will be exerting a really powerful and positive self-discipline and I will therefore be an attractive personality. Last night I just remembered breath control (didn't even do it, just remembered it) and hung on. I didn't eat!! I came and got on line and chatted with guys from the personals.

Please write to congratulate me!! This is new behavior! It is a breakthrough! I really am going to make it into Day Three.

I REALLY need support to make it past Day Three... to make it all the way to Day Four and beyond. I will need support this evening. I will not be able to go to bed early. Well - maybe I will be able to. Because I know that FIRST of all TOMORROW IS THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL so there will be that as distraction, fasting incentive, and purposeful activity, and even motivation to get to sleep... AND (consequently) today I can go BACK-TO-SCHOOL SHOPPING ! -- an activity I had forgotten to pursue/take care of! and a major fun distraction and boredom-eliminator.

PLEASE WRITE with support to keep fasting (my goal = 5 days, ideal = 21 days) and with CONGRATULATIONS for toughing it through this past night!!!! THANKS!!!! Lauray
