My daily Journey to a healthier life style
May 3, 2011
I didn’t want to get out of bed for some reason. I wonder if it because I didn’t have anything planned for the day, so therefore my brain was telling me that my day was just a wash. The only thing I had planned was going over to Christy’s so I could take her to go pay her electric bill. So nothing special planned, other then I could go to the Revival, if I wanted to. It didn’t help that Mekong wouldn’t get off of me. Sometimes I feel that she is more like a hungry leech then a pet, based on the way she hangs all over me and WONT get off of me when I need her too. At leas ... read more Day 7 of Post Water Fast 13 y

I woke up very hungry, and that is probably because I haven’t been very motivated in making sure that I had food prepared to eat during the various times of the day. I ate the last of my cantaloupe which was getting a little bit soft and squishy. I ate it anyway, as there still isn’t a lot of food in my fridge. I haven’t went all out in stocking it. I have plenty in my cabinets and freezer, such as beans, brown rice, lentils, barley, frozen shrimp, frozen fruit and veggies so I do have things under control when it comes to having food. I just didn’t want to go out and buy ... read more Day 6 of Post Water Fast 13 y

It was a very long day for me. I didn’t get home until after 4 a.m, as I was having to much fun over at Christy’s house. I was really not certain if I would have the energy or the motivation to go to church, but I did. I woke up once around 9:30 a.m. as I had to go to the bathroom, but I went back to bed for another hour before I really got up and got ready for church. As I was getting ready for church, I turned on the radio to see how the weather was. I was listening to some church service, that as far as I could find out that it was from St. Timothy Lutheran Church. T ... read more Day 5 of Post Water Fast 13 y

I felt really nasty, having slept in my clothes over at Christy for last least 2 hours, before getting back up. I at least was able to wash my face and feel a little bit better before I left her house. I knew that I would be at Tri Rivers only for a little while, then I could go home and take a really long shower.
I got the Tri-Rivers around 9:30 a.m., after taking out only $20.00 for plants. I ran into one of the twins (Ashley). I called her Ashley twin in my head sometimes, since I already have a friend named Ashley. She is the daughter of Stella, who is the siste ... read more Day 4 of Post Water Fast - 2nd Bi-daily post -Second half 13 y

My evening was not as eventful as I would have liked it to be. I didn’t do half of what I really wanted to do, but I did have fun in the process.
Jason didn’t call me, so I was just a little bit disappointed in that since I was looking forward to talking to him around various things. Since we had a lot in common, I thought it would have been nice to start a long distant chess game.
I was over at Christy’s until the next morning, as we both stayed up all night! So I didn’t read my Boundaries book, pray or read my Bible. We had an old friend come over and he hung ou ... read more Day 4 of Post Water Fast - 1st Bi-daily post -First half 13 y

I woke up well rested and happy around 6:30 a.m. when my alarm went off. I realized how cold I was as well. The radio said that it got to 40 degree out as a low, so that would make sense when I was cold. I had all the heaters off as it was nicer out, no reason to spend more money having them on. I tried to get up, but Mekong wasn’t having it. It probably because I was wanted to get up earlier then I normally get up. I talked to God about such a wonderful day I had yesterday. I talked to him about this whole new ”Jason” thing. I told him that I was still very leery about ... read more Day 3 of Post Water Fast 13 y

I woke up really thirsty, so right off the bat I drank some water. I have noticed that I am not drinking as much water as I was, since I have been eating again. I was hungry too, but I didn’t eat breakfast until I was done most of my routine. I felt like dancing a little bit, and thought I might add a little bit of exercise to my daily schedule, so I added to my phone for later in the day. I haven’t exercised in a while, so I know that I have to slowly build up to it.
I spend time with my kitties, feed them, made my lunch and dinner and ate my meager breakfast.

I woke up feeling really good and well rested. I laid in bed listening to the radio while I thought about various things. Of course, I checked my phone, but I didn’t feel down or even upset that I hadn’t hear from the guy. I kind of felt odd being so indifferent to him out of my life. I passed it off as he didn’t seem to wonder how I am doing or the like, so why should I waste my time with thoughts of him. The feeling that I have been having is very much like I just realized that I had lost a receipt to something, but it isn’t that important to me. It has become an ”Oh ... read more Day 2 of Post Water Fast 13 y

I can’t remember what time I went to bed last night, but I found myself wide awake at 5:50 a.m. I got up, went to the bathroom, and drank a bit of water. I got back in bed, laid there and thought about various things in my life. Christy, her daughter, this new Jason guy and the things that I had planned to do today. I finally got up and looked out the window to see that it was rainy once again, and wondered if they were still going to have the Busby Park clean up scheduled for Earth day. Since it was rainy last week, they re-scheduled it for today. I had planned on go ... read more Day 1 of Post Water Fast 13 y

I woke up with lots of energy and a bit hungry too! My mind wasn’t on food, as I was laying there listening to the radio (the local A.M. Station) talked about a local missing girl. It was Christy’s daughter. I texted her and told her that it was on the radio. Christy told me that she was starting to get frightened. Then an hour later, she texted me and said that she has her. She came home muddy and wet. She said she was drugged and woke up in an abandon building and she hurt “down there”. I asked her if she believed that. She said she didn’t know and she was going to t ... read more Day 28 of Water Fast – Broke fast! 13 y

Happy Easter! I have to say that this has been one of the happiest moments for me in a long time. I had a good time last night, even thought I was out very very late, but I was still up in time to go to church! Part of me wanted to sleep in, but the most of me wanted to go to church. LOL.
I got up and got ready. I wasn’t certain what I would wear. I wasn’t planning on wearing a dress, as I haven’t been much of a dress wearer for years. I find myself comparing myself to other women in dresses. I have had to check myself in
So I wore this little summer dress that I ... read more Day 27 of Water Fast 13 y

I really wanted to sleep in, but the more and more I thought about it, I realized that my body was just feel rough because my body is burning away nasty stuff in my body. I stumbled into the bathroom to do a couple things. Washing my face seemed to help me out a lot, as well as drink 16.9 ounces of water. My phone alarm went off at 8:00 a.m. so that way I could get ready and get to Lowes before 9:30 a.m. I was really slow at getting at it. LOL I still was feeling really rough, but there was nothing I could do about it, other then taking a sip of Powerade Zero with the ... read more Day 26 of Water Fast 13 y

Day 26th! Yay for me! I can’t believe that I have made it this far!
I got up early (at 8:00 a.m.) as I had things planned for the day. Mekong gave me a hard time, as she does every morning. I brushed my teeth and tongue. It was a little pasty white, but I have noticed it wasn’t as heavy has it has been in the past. I have noticed that my skin is also very soft, and dry in areas like my legs, but it seems very supple. As I was getting dressed, I also realized that the size 6 Khakis are seemingly big on me as well. They hang off my hips that they seem much longer in t ... read more Day 25 of Water Fast 13 y

I woke up with Mekong crawling all over me! She was trying to find a comfortable spot to lay across my neck/shoulder. I find that I toss and turn, if I lay on my side more. I find that I find it uncomfortable, as well as laying on my stomach. I find that I am more comfortable laying on my back, then I have in the past. I don’t know why that is, but I have noticed it more and more when I do sleep. Maybe it is because I am less pillowy then I am now.
As I was getting ready for work, which mean taking another shower, as I had been sweating under all my blankets and it w ... read more Day 24 of Water Fast 13 y

I am on Day 24! And I am feeling great and alive. I have a bit of yucky-ness off and on, but over all I am feeling really good. Better then I have in past fasts. That must be a sign that I am much healthier now than I have in the past.
I woke up listening to the news on my alarm clock radio. They talked about it being the 12 year anniversary of the Columbine School shooting. It never dawned on me that it has been 12 years. I remember reading a lot about it as as unfortunate as it is, it has always fascinated me the human nature of people. When I was in Junior High, I ... read more Day 23 of Water Fast 13 y

I woke up in not a good mood for some reason. Maybe it was because I got a bit too much sleep. Maybe it was because I felt achy, smelly and horrible. Maybe it was because Mekong scratched my face, while she was laying across my neck and face. Maybe it was because I still haven’t heard from the guy. I was kind of proud of myself that I didn’t text him, as I was urged to do. What ever it was, it put in a foul mood, in which I found myself criticizing everything around me. I could seem to make my bed “just” right. I didn’t like how my bangs were laying. As crazy as it so ... read more Day 22 of Water Fast 13 y

I had a hard time getting up and getting started. I was still feeling “off” regardless that I drank 16.9 ounces of water upon waking. I checked my ketones, and they weren’t overly high, but my urine was frothy, and it smelled as it is normal in this stage. It doesn’t help that the temperature outside as dropped which makes it harder for me, as I hate being cold. I am not wearing my legwarmers anymore, but I am still wearing a long tank top and two light shirts to stay warm. My fingers are always cold and I hate that. Where is the warm weather?

I wasn’t sure if I was going to get up on time to go to the Palm Sunday service at church. I am so used to the 11:15 Service that the one service at 10:30 at the Palace, made me wonder. But I got up early enough that I went early. The Service wasn’t until 10:30, but I got there around 9:30 a.m. It was at the Palace, the same place I was at the night before. LOL. I went to sit in the same seat that I was in the night before, and an usher asked if I could move up front. I did, but I wasn’t happy. I don’t like to sit at the front during a service for some reason. Probabl ... read more Day 20 of Water Fast 13 y

I was really surprised when I woke up around 7:30, but I didn’t get out of bed until 8:00 a.m. My body protested a bit, but I was motivated to get up. So I took my shower, got dressed and I did a little bit of cleaning around the house. I called my mother and told her what Christy and I were doing today. I told her how excited I was to be going to see America English. She told me to have fun, as she was busy and had things to do. I sat and read a bit before I got ready to leave my house.
I got to Christy’s house close to 9:00 a.m, and she was up and ready for me. W ... read more Day 19 of Water Fast 13 y

I was laying in bed when my alarm went off. I listened to the radio for a long while. I was still feeling a bit odd, but not feeling so tired. The test would be how I felt once I got out of bed and walked around. The radio station that was on was playing a couple musical clips from America English, which is a Beatles tribute band, what will be playing at the Palace on Saturday. I wondered if I should go, since when I was a teenager, I was a BIG Beatles fan. When I was 15 years old in 1989, my mother gave me a Beatles themed Christmas. I had Beatles albums, Beatles magaz ... read more Day 18 of Water Fast 13 y

I slept well, and Mekong kept me company as usual. As I was getting ready for work, I was a little bit disappointed that my day’s schedule was so puny. I had only three events on my calendar. It seemed so small compared to other days when I have had tons of stuff to do. I had a very slow start getting out of bed and moving around. I think that I am finally feeling a bit of the nasty-ness of the water fast. I drank 16.9 ounces of water right off the bat. It tasted good, regardless of the whitish tongue
The day was pretty normal and slow for some reason for me. I used ... read more Day 17 of Water Fast 13 y

I didn’t have a good night sleeping, as I drank a lot of water before bed, which was hard for me to do as I wasn’t really thirsty, but I knew that my body needed it to flush the ketones out. I have a busy day today, as I have several things on my schedule to keep me so. I will probably being going to the Library (during my lunch time). I will be going to Christy’s house before I go to church, as I have been doing for a couple weeks now. I have been going back to church for 3 weeks now, and I can definitely tell a difference in my life. I can only hope that my life will ... read more Day 16 of Water Fast 13 y

I slept well last night except for little claw marks all over my shoulder and back, from Mekong laying on my back and side. I DEFINITELY have to wear short sleeves instead of a tank top as a pajama top when I go to bed. Because my right shoulder was just all torn up with her little nippy claws. I really need to trim them as well, so she can’t do that.
I probably didn’t help that I was feeling a bit achy as well. The smell that is coming off of me can be so nasty, that there is no way to get away from it. I have had a couple had hard twinges in my right rib, which was ... read more Day 15 of Water Fast

My night was okay. I felt a bit restless, but since I stayed up so late, it does really help me feel more rested, if I keep my amount of sleep to about 5 hours. I am sure this is due to me not having to have as much sleep, as my body is constantly burning fat and working to detoxify my body.
I have noticed that at time, my tongue doesn’t seem to be as white as usually, but then it might be that in the morning it has had less time to form there since the last time I brush it (before bed).

I am feeling pretty good, other then a slight headache, but I wonder if it is because of the change of the weather. I didn’t get out of bed until about 10:15, as it is one hour before church. I was feeling really good about attending church this week. As well as it was predicted that it would get up to 85 degrees today.
I had things planned on my calendar already, but at the last minute (before church) I decided that I would go to the park and read. I was such a beautiful day, I went back into the house and found my water colors, so that I could possibly paint a bi ... read more Day 13 of Water Fast 13 y

I didn’t get up as quickly as I had planned. My phone buzzed at 10:00 a.m., as I was suppose to get up and finish folding my clothing, but I didn’t get up until around 11:00 a.m. I did finally get up and call my mother, as scheduled, but she wasn’t home. So I told my Aunt C. that I would call my mother back in about 20 minutes, since she was at the store.
I got dressed and did my normal morning things, as I usually do. I folded a bit of my clothing, when I realized that I really needed to go through my whole wardrobe and get rid of all the clothing that I really don’ ... read more |
