35 hours into the Dry Fast - 72.7 Kg
After struggling for so long, I was finally able to begin a new Dry Fast, hopefully I can beat a new record this time around - aiming for 14 days!
Last night my sleep was not great and I had a terrible headache for most of the afternoon and evening. I woke up at around 2:00 AM and did not fall asleep till 4:30 AM or so, I was just tossing and turning in my bed. When I went to sleep I was extremely nauseous, I felt I was going to vomit for sure. But then it passed, I forced myself to stay in bed and to try sleeping on my pounding headache and my nausea, and it helped after all. I had weird dream in my few hours asleep, something that I usually don't experience on fed days, and not for sure so early into the Dry Fast.
Energy wise I'm still in a normal state, I don't feel thirsty at all - just a bit of grumbling stomach, but not hungry per se. I didn't check my Ketosis yet but I feel particularly cold today, wondering if it's the weather or my Ketones are rising up.
Every Fast is different from another one and this time, I feel I'm having stronger detox symptoms, maybe because I waited too long to start a new Fast (after all my eating habits are not bad and definitely not changed from any previous Dry Fast).
I have gained a lot of weight in these past few months, always procrastinating my fast and believing I can lose weight by just eating less. Sure it might help for a week or so but then, I'm back on square one with even more pounds to lose than before. I'm tired of this yo-yo dieting that I'm doing, I should find a way to maintain all I lose during my fasts.
I found a couple of motivations this time around though. The first one is to meet again an old friend...that never seen me so fat, so I want to look better for him but mostly feel better with myself. Another one is because I look much older with all this extra weight on me, I can see on how people interact with me. Summer is coming soon and I don't want to hide again under extra large maxi shirts and leggings, I want to be able to wear again all my beautiful dresses.
In this Blog I tell about my experiences with the Dr. Bernstein Diet from day one, my successes and my failures, my Eating Disorder and the impact of it on my life. The discovery of Dr. Simeons Protocol and his HCG Diet and everything that followed my Water Fast, Dry Fast, MFS and Bone Broth Fast journeys.
