Day 10 - it's done!

Wow... I can hardly believe I've fasted for ten days! It seems like it wasn't that long...

I went about the salt flush in the morning, very grateful that it would be the last. I brewed my lemonaid and went to class. For some reason, this incredible sense of tiredness and weakness overcame me in the afternoon an I couldn't do anything. I wasn't hungry or nauseated, but I felt like there was something trying to keep me from finishing. It was hard to even walk to the campus center. I layed in bed, unable to sleep, for half the afternoon. Afterwards I bucked up and drank a bottle of the lemonaid (forcing energy into me) and went to do homework, then afterwards went to walmart for more post-fast supplies.

I bough chopped veggies, like green beans, string beans, corn and such. Hearts of palm (low calorie, high nutrient content!) And some stuff for my hamster. It's not fair, he gets nuts and dried corn. I get lemonaid.

Tomorrow I am having tropicana orange juice for breakfast!!! **everyone do the happy dance** I can almost taste it in my mouth just thinking about it. Later at night I'm going to have a couple cubes of canteloupe and the day after, more orange juice and try a bowl of fruit for lunch. By Sabbath I should be able to eat yogurt and granola :)

The master cleanse fast was probably the hardest and best thing I've ever done for myself. If a person can overcome the desire to eat, what others desires can't he/she overcome? Let me correct myself. If a person can hand his desires over to God and actually let Him take them away... He or she can give anything up. Aything!

Till tomorrow, and thank you for the support of those who have been reading :)
