So I successfully completed 30 days of my combined Dry/Water Fast; who knew I could go so many days without eating, not so much for the absence of food
rather than the willpower of staying
away from food itself. Oh well, time passes
after all and at the end of the journey
looking back does not seem that difficult, if done once in a while.
Today I planned on refeeding with Bone Broth,
I’m now sipping on my Mason jar with 1/3 of Bone Broth and
some boiling water; I must to say it taste awful,
I added too much water and the end result is not great at all. I’ll do better with the next jar I hope.
Last night I had hard time sleeping, as
often happens, but this time my mouth was extremely
dry, as I never felt before, I was
trying to drink water during the night, but it wasn’t helping. I was wondering
if it was a sort of sign that I
should break my fast, but I didn’t feel hungry at all, just thirsty. Well this morning I was very weak, I could not walk to come to
work, I took the streetcar for most of the way here and walked with lots of challenges the rest of the way, thinking
that I could faint any time. Most
probably it was just my mind making up this scenario, but I didn’t like how I was feeling and I was ok with the idea of refeeding
on Bone Broth today, I need to have
a normal life and functioning properly, otherwise I cannot continue
any fast whatsoever.
My eyelids
are still twitching often, a sign
that I have some nutritional deficiencies for sure, but I hope once I start to
eat again things will be better. I cannot wait to eat a hearty salad from my favourite restaurants. Now that
I’m drinking I feel really tired,
the refeeding process, let’s face it, it sucks; eating after a prolonged fast takes so much energy
from the body that basically shuts me down
while I’m digesting, and I’m just
sipping on a little bit of Bone Broth
with tons of water at the moment!
I still have lots of weight to lose unfortunately, the rate on which I was losing weight was not that fast so I would’ve needed another two weeks to reach my ideal target
weight, but I could not handle another 2 weeks of Water Fast, I’m
getting tired of not eating; I hope with good
food and exercise I can reach my goal, and maybe I’ll do short Water Fast here and there to stabilize
my weight and lose another couple of
Kg. The important thing is that I don’t
gain any weight and I maintain
wherever I am now, or less of course. Wish
me luck!
