I did manage to fast for the entire day Friday. Problem is, my body didn't appreciate that. I woke up Saturday feeling incredibly nauseated, my head was spinning, and I could barely walk. I managed to get downstairs and I ate two pieces of celery and drank some orange juice, thinking that I probably needed the nutrients, and not wanting to break my fast too suddenly. BAD IDEA. After that I got so sick I couldn't stand, and I didn't feel better til after I threw up, twice. (I hate being sick >.<) Then when my stomach was feeling good enough to eat, I basically went crazy all day and ate everything I could get my hands on. Fuck.
So I have a new rule for myself: no more full day fasts. From now on, when I fast, it will be from dinner one night to dinner the next night, because my body just can't handle sleeping on that empty of a stomach.
Other than all that, I was really please with fasting. I felt so strong, like I was finally in control. I guess with me I either eat everything or I eat nothing. I don't know. I'll figure something out.
Hmmm, that sounds brutal. I wish you the best of luck hun. You are beautiful even if you don't see it.

But, a little advice:
-when fasting drink something with electrolytes like 0 calorie Gatorade or powerade.
-I preach and live off of green tea.
-if you are super duper hungry, dissolve a broth bullion in some warm water and drink it. Nice and toasty.
