Exercise is neccessary during the fast and makes you feel good too!

I woke today with a stomach ache. I took the senna tea last night but did not produce a BM until the afternoon, this after drinking two more cups in the morning. I was surprised at what came out, considering I haven't eaten in seven days. Now I know I need to continue to use the tea. The mental fog that I had going yesterday lifted as well. I was tired in the evening and took a nap for about an hour. I woke and went to a step class at my gym. I was VERY surprised at how much energy I had! But more then that, I felt really light on the step so I was able to work harder! Actually, there were a few points where I had to remind my self that I'm fasting so I should take it easy! I did sweat A LOT during the class and afterwards I noticed that my skin looked really pale. I've heard that if a person is dehydrated, the body will pull fluid from non-essential organs like skin and move it into the essentail ones like the heart and the brain. This could explain it. Overall, I'm feeling well, no hunger, and none of the original symptoms experienced at the beginning of my fast have returned.
