DAY 07 : FASTING IS A RESET

This is Day Seven of not eating, so I doubt if today it’s possible for me to scale the side of a mountain as my friend is doing in this picture – but I know I can do this when I complete my fast and return to a healthy diet and exercise program. FASTING allows the body to heal itself of everything – it’s an anti-aging program on steroids. It will give you another chance to be well. It’s the ultimate wellness program.

Dear Readers, allow me to tell you what I’m experiencing:

The ability to sleep comes and goes.
My whole body feels like it has “restless leg syndrome”
Had diarrhea this morning – seriously? A week without food and I still have bowel movements? Where is that coming from?
Water gives me heartburn so I have to sip small amounts at a time, which stops the restless leg thing and I can fall asleep.
My skin continues to d-age (anti-aging at warp speed).
My neck throbs and I can hear it.
My BP is normal and I’m never cold (everyone else here is cold).
The discharge from my eyes that I’ve had for weeks is less and less each day.
The puffiness in my eyes and face is leaving more each day, creating an anti-aging look.
I am no longer tired – but resting feels amazing.
Spirituality is at an all-time high.
Watching movies is distracting.
My tongue is burning, but my teeth feel clean.
I do not smell good (understatement).
Still no desire to eat or stop fasting – I know house cleaning is in order and my body is working hard,
I’m trying to direct some of the healing to the bunion on my left toe. It does look smaller!
Sinuses continue to improve each day.
Can’t imagine that IBS will ever come back, unless I return to a toxic diet.
Excited to start and embrace the 80-10-10 lifestyle. (www.foodnsport.com)
