It's 7.30pm here, my first day is almost complete! I feel great! I barely even got hungry. I didn't feel sluggish, I was a little grumpy in the afternoon though. So far I've only had 3 drinks and one hot water with lemon juice and honey.
The drink actually isnt too bad. It consists of water, cayenne, lemon and honey or your meant to use mapel syrup but we don't have any...I found of a few websites that its ok to use honey, but it just has more sugar in it :| nevermind.
I can stomach the first 300ml but after that it gets pretty bad...the things we put up with! I would totally reccomend this drink to you fasting girls, it helps me feel full.
I went and bought some sea salt today, because, well tomorrow I have to do a sea salt cleanse. For anyone who doesnt know what that is its a wash and I think it helps everything pass through your body very quickly. apparently within 30-60 mins you should have bowel movements. I'm terrified. It's basically warm water and salt. YUK! Has anyone else done this? I've been told its very unpleasant.
I havnt managed to get any laxitive tea (can anyone tell me where to get it) but I guess laxitives work just as well? and they're cheaper!
Mum made me eat tonight. I didn't do it. she gave me a sweet potato because I told her I was on a detox but she said because I was studying I had to eat. No mum I don't have it eat. But anyway, I took it to my room, chopped it up and flushed it down the toilet. This is the ONLY week I can do it. I'm actually so proud of myself. they were having curry for dinner, which just didnt seem right considering I will be eating the real deal curries in 1.5 weeks. She wants me to have a protein shake before bed, that can't be too bad, if I actually have to go through with it.
So I only got 3 and a half smilies today so far. I'll try and stomach another concuction before bed, but they way I see it is the less I drink the less calories? hmm..
I'm excited for a new day tomorrow. We can do this!!

ReplyDeleteGosh, the warm water and salt concoction sounds terrible! I use that to wash my mouth out when I have ulcers or acute tonsillitis.. but I'd never consider actually drinking it!
Glad the fast is working out for you so far, keep at it!
xx
best of luck with the fast! It takes a lot of balls to down the salt water, balls I don't have ;)
ReplyDeletebut I am starting a liquid fast tomorrow!
