Starting my FIRST WATER FAST.. Wanna Join?

I am SICK n TIRED of being sick n tired of my yo-yo dieting.. this stronghold food has over my life has got to end. I am becoming anti-social.. always feeling down.. constantly angry at myself. Just all around becoming an UNHAPPY person. Over the past 6 years I’ve gone from 127lbs to 177lbs I’m only 5’2 so this is A LOT of weight for my frame. I stress eat.. happy eat.. sad eat.. mad eat.. EAT. I am starting my fast right now 2:45am on Friday July 13, 2018. I am attempting 7 days... I will go longer depending on how I feel. I’ve never done this before so wish me luck! I need more than anything to regain my MENTAL STRENGTH.. If you want to join me, let’s do it! I will update every night. Let the journey begin.... ————— Daily Updates: Day 1 down!!! I feel good about maintaining my control today.. But I have to admit I almost broke and was going to snack on grapes - almostttt gave in while I was cooking tried to justify by telling myself it’s just fruit anyways.. a few won’t hurt. My mind even tried to play tricks on me telling me “Start tomorrow.. a 1 day difference won’t matter” but I didn’t break!!! Today was hard, I had to cook for my boys. I couldn’t even taste what I was cooking.. had to ask my husband to let me know if there was enough seasoning lol I can definitely see how much of a STRUGGLE this will be for me considering I will be required to cook everyday and do groceries as I normally would to feed my family. I heard day 2 & 3 are the absolute worsttt definitely not looking forward to the hunger pangs & jedi mind tricks.. I realized it’s bigger than weight loss for me. It’s more about re-teaching myself DISCIPLINE. I’m updating way earlier because I had a really long day & want to get ready for bed soon. Yes, this girl will not be taking parts in no social gatherings or events until my fast is over. Day 2 here I come.... Day 2 Overall feeling really good. Drank tons of water. Feeling energetic. Opted to stay home to avoid social eating this weekend. Cleaned up around the house.. built a few Ikea Pax Wardrobe Systems today. Taking this ME TIME out to get my home in order. No violent hunger pangs just yet. When I do feel hungry, I just drink water and it subsides.. Ps. The weight loss (although I know it’s only water) is really encouraging. Watching Youtube videos on “Water Fasting” also really helps too. Bring on Day 3! Day 3 Most challenging day thus far, had to do groceries. Spent about $120 on food that I cannot eat.. I realized once you make the decision to flip the switch in your brain & have a goal you’re trying to attain it’s really easy when you’re strategically avoiding food but when you have to COOK.. and prepare snacks etc IT IS SO DAMN HARDDDDD. I wanted to snack on some chip n dip.. carrots n dip.. A cracker.. something! Anything! But I fought the thoughts away by running upstairs to watch “water fasting” youtube videos. Really does help. I can’t believe tomorrow I’ll be at Day 4 already.. Really excited as I’ve read this is when your body is in “ketosis”.. can’t wait to burn my FAT STORAGE for Energy over the next few days.. Day 4 Not much to report.. hungers pangs were more intense today. Drank A LOT of water. Took a nap (I never take naps) was really tired today. But I made it through! Day 5 Toughest day yet! Felt really lethargic.. definitely considered ending my fast and saying to hell with 7 days I’ll end at 5! Esp after not tipping the scale as much this morning. I was rather disappointed.. But I fought through all of the negative thoughts. I think I’ll transition into juicing right after my 7 days of water fasting. Going until Friday morning.. Fresh coconut water will be my first “meal”.. mmm can’t wait! Cmon day 6... let’s go! Day 6 I messed up. I got so excited about losing 10lbs this morning, I had a cup of coconut water. Guess this pure water fast is officially over.. but I’m still going to continue. Water for the rest of the day and tomorrow is day 7! (Planning to have 1 cup of coconut water again tomorrow too) I’m just going by how my body feels it’s bittersweet. I didn’t stick it out like I hoped for but so far this fast has taught me that I DO have control(last 5 days of pure water). I just need to exercise it more often (like today).
