Fasting photos

Here’s some pics I’ve taken this week. Today has been much better than yesterday. I have allowed myself a little more fruit today than the last few days, and I haven’t had any lemons. So maybe my taste buds just needed a break from the tartness.

Based on recommendations I’ve read this week, I plan on reintroducing solid foods tomorrow, but will continue eating just fruits and veggies still until May 1. (I’ll probably do a juice or two a day and a chewable salad type meal.)

I have suspected for a while that something I was eating was not agreeing with me, but I didn’t know how to pinpoint what it was. I think that is is the biggest reason that I was having such a hard time losing weight before, and why I’m dropping weight so quickly now. Because, really, the caloric value of the juices isn’t much less than I was eating before. So, after May 1, when I start reintroducing new foods, I’m planning to do it slowly so I can really see how things like wheat and dairy effect my system. All in all, I think this has been a really interesting experience. I recommend it.

BTW, because someone asked, I’ll go ahead and say it: since Sunday I’ve lost 8.6 pounds.
