Day 4

This time around is interesting. I am not thinking about food as much as I was the last time. Last time I did this for 14 days all I could think about was food. I wasn't hungry, food just looked, smelled and sounded really good. This time, so far, I am not as into food. I keep thinking about water, and started to drink a ton of it today. This makes me feel better, as it makes me think that this time around I am a little less attatched to....I don't know what....something like emotional eating, or that I now need less outside coping. I feel stronger somehow this time around.

Highlights of today...
~No headaches, but still a little tired. Starting to feel the beginning of when my edges get softer (that's the only way I can describe how it feels to be fasting)
~Nothing like a nice coffee retention enema to get things going (yeah, that's right, I said enema)
~A most disgusting discovery of what comes out through your skin when you take a bath in bentonite clay. Water should NOT be that colour after you have a bath. Supposedly it is heavy metals and other such lovely toxins pulled from your body that give the water that nice yellowy brown glow. Sure did make me dirt tired afterwards though, I could barley walk out of the bathroom.

Have decided to include one other cleansing "technique" each day of this fast. Massages, salt baths, dry skin brushing, more clay baths, and yes, more coffee enemas. You know, if your going to do it, you might as well go the whole nine yards.

Well, i guess that you have just suggested an alternate . . .uh . . . route for coffee consumption . . . yeah, yeah, i know it doesn't stay long, but even a little caffeine - for me - is a very desirable thing.
Cool to read of your adventures in the land of the foodless . . . i look forward to the next installation . . . keep drinking that H2O!

i have to say that i think it's not entirely fair of you to promise us the continuing chronicles of your monster cleanse, and then just not post anything after day four! The questions abound!! Are you too feeble to tap out calls for help on your keyboard? With all the junk cleared out of your system did it turn out that there was nothing left of you (my personal fear about cleansing . . . what if i am entirely composed of toxins, and i get rid of them all . . . )and so there is no one left to let us know how it's going? Are you so delusional from lack of food that you thought the cat was a computer and he's still trying to figure out what the fuck it is you're trying to do to his back? Were you so hungry on the day your significant other put on the chicken costume to cheer you up that you lost control for a moment, and, thinking your were chowing down on a stuffed chicken breast, accidentally committed a little cannibalism (we know it runs in your family?

. . . i could go on . . . but in a rare moment of self restraint will end it here . . .

. . . and wait . . .

with love
