I ALMOST QUIT MY FAST EARLY THIS A.M.
I WAS SO HUNGRY AND TRIED TO NOT EAT AND FINALLY ATE SOME FROZEN POPSICLES MADE OUT OF GRAPE JUICE….SO I DIDN’T REALLY EAT ANYTHING. I WONDER IF JELLO IS FOOD? I HAVE TO LOOK INTO THAT, I THINK I’D EAT SOME JELLO IF IT WASN’T FOOD. WHAT MAKES SOMETHING FOOD, ANYHOW?
MILK IS LIQUID, BUT DEFINITELY WOULD BE CONSIDERED FOOD. BUT JELLO, IT DOESN’T HAVE ANY FAT IN IT. I THINK GELATIN HAS NO CALORIES…I HAVE TO CHECK. I REALLY WANT TO EAT.
THE PAIN IS LESS TODAY THAN IT WAS WHEN I STARTED, BUT MORE THAN YESTERDAY. I WOULDN’T TAKE ANYTHING FOR IT, IT ISN’T THAT BAD, BUT IT BURNS AND STINGS AND IS UNCOMFORTABLE.
I THINK I’LL WEIGH MYSELF. AFTER WATCHING MYSELF ON THIS VIDEO, I HAVE HIGH HOPES THAT MAYBE I LOST A POUND…BE RIGHT BACK…
LOOKS LIKE A POUND AND A HALF. I SHOULD HAVE STARTED THIS BY WEIGHING MYSELF BEFORE TAKING A SHOWER SO MY CLOTHES WOULDN’T THROW THINGS OFF, BUT SOMEONE TOOK MY SCALE OUT OF THE BATHROOM AND DIDN’T BRING IT BACK.
DID I MENTION THAT I’M REALLY HUNGRY?

THIS IS DAY 4. I WANT TO EAT VERY BADLY. THE PAIN IS LESS NOW IN MY KIDNEY AREA, BUT NOT GONE. IT WAS GONE ALL DAY AND CAME BACK AROUND BEDTIME.
IT SEEMS TO BE HELPING, I DID TAKE A PAINPILL ON THE 2ND DAY, BUT NOT SINCE.
IF THE KIDS KEEP TORMENTING ME WITH THEIR FOOD, I DON’T KNOW HOW LONG I CAN HOLD OUT. I HAVE SUCH LOW WILL POWER AND FOOD IS NOT SOMETHING I LIKE TO GIVE UP….I’D RATHER GIVE UP THE INTERNET FOR A YEAR THAN GIVE UP FOOD FOR MORE THAN 1 DAY…..

I am keeping myself accountable by posting a video log of my fast. I have this awful pain right in front of my lowest rib on the left side of my back. I’ve spent a few $1000 I didn’t have trying to find a diagnosis. Thought it was kidney stones, but I’ve never had them so nothing to go on except for the descriptions of kidney stones and it sounded similar. Maybe it’s my pancreas? My mother thinks I have arthritis. I don’t know.
Whatever it is, a fast may help cure it. I ready a great book called Therapeutic Fasting by Arnold DeVries(I think that’s how you spell it) and fasting does work to cure all sorts of illness.
My husband was almost paralyzed with pain in his back about 10 years ago. He had to crawl to get to the bathroom and it hurt him just to move.
He went on a 21 day fast and his back got better and never hurt like that again since.
I did go on a 10 day fast about 2 1/2 months ago. The pain in my left upper quadrant of my abdomen didn’t go away, but I was able to stop taking the 10 to 12 ibuprofens each day.
The doctor said to keep taking these pain numbers, but it seems stupid to me. To take over 500 ibuprofens in a 2 month period seems to not be the right way to fix this.
After I went on the 10 day fast, during which I made sure NOT to take any ibuprofens, the pain was much less. There were a few days after I ended the fast that I actually felt almost normal.
The pain kept on growing in the past 2 months though and for the last week or so, I have been taking an ibuprofen at night. I don’t want to just numb my body, I want to cure whatever ails me.
So, since I can’t afford to pay for all of the tests that would need to be done to figure it out, I’ll try to get rid of whatever this is by fasting.
