Try not to beat yourself up too badly. Yes, today was a low point, but it's definitely a learnable situation. Nothing is lost. Just begin tomorrow as though today didn't happen. Follow your fast as before but expect tomorrow to possibly be tougher (potential hunger pangs) and try to prepare for that.

If you really feel the need to eat try to fall back on raw fruits such as banana or avocado, a slice, a small bite would take the edge off but not trigger the digestive system the way a baked potato may, or probably will.

I've even put a squirt of honey or Agave nectar on my tongue and that took away the desire for anything. A strong, tart lemon or lime tea sweetened with honey or agave nectar and sprinkled with cayenne pepper also took the edge off any desire to eat. Try hot veggie broths, or fruit broths. They also help. Alot.

Again, don't beat yourself up. Now's the time to give yourself some tender loving care. Stroke your spirit and emotions. Do something nice for yourself. Then begin tomorrow with strong resolve. You can do it.
