Day 8

Hello misery.

Saltwater first thing in the morning. I was soooo thirsty!!! I drank it all at once. I even wanted more. Took a long shower, got dressed and went to the cafeteria to buy more water. I felt so goooood, I was wearing jeans from last summer! Stopped to chat with my friend, and I completely forgot that I still had not disposed of the saltwater... I was back in my room getting ready for work and I felt the urge to fart. Lately I have been farting, it's not dangerous. But I did, and it was a hazard. A messy hazard.

That pissed me off royally. I took another shower and went to work, almost late, fuming. I got over it, however. I was at work from 1pm till 7pm, so most of they day was food-temptation-free.

My mouth feels really dry on the inside, and I've been drinking a lot more water than on other days. It feels like the inside of my cheeks are sticking to my teeth. Not fun! And my tongue is a nasty brown. It's regained it's pink appeal at least, but with a brown coat instead of white. I hope tomorrow being day 9 things will start to clear up, especially because I have a date. He's taking me out for lunch... Or should I say, Tea time.

I'm on the second day of my period, and even though I though I wouldn't, I'm bloated, and I think I regained 4 pounds because of it. The good thing is I know they'll drop off in a few days. "Frailty, thy name is woman!!!"

Some people are suggesting I stop at day 10. I say no. They say I'm training myself into anorexia. I say I'm cleansing and teaching myself discipline. They say I'm crazy, I say SO WHAT??
