Day 3 - The Second Fast Day


Today didn't feel like as much effort as the first fast day. That was until 5 pm. I was going to try and make it all the way to the 24 hr mark to break my fast. No way. Totally lost control. The desire to eat was way more than I could handle. I ate about 300 calories more than I should have. This is similar to the first fast day. Instead of having a snack and a meal I went whole hog and consumed all the calories in a 30 minute window. I don't feel guilty about it just uncomfortable and full. I scarfed the food down so fast that my brain didn't have time to catch up.

Tomorrow is an eating day so it will be interesting to see how much I eat. I am also interested to see how long it will take me to naturally get me fast day calories in check. I am not so worried about the feast days. I didn't feel out of control yesterday but I will definitely keep an eye on things to make sure I don't eat two days worth of food in one day.

I weighed myself this afternoon. It was exactly the weight that I anticipated it to be. It was the first time in a long time that I got on a scale, saw how big the number was and didn't cry. That scale has been my enemy ever since the thyroxine scandal where the endocrinologist changed my dosage and I gained 50 lbs in a few months. Every time I have gotten on it in the past 2 years I spent a half hour crying. I added a weight loss ticker to the blog. The hope is that this diet works and that in a few weeks I can log my first weight loss in a long time.
