Day 4

Returning with my tail between my legs because I had to start my fast over, the day after my last post. I ate a couple bites of food on the morning and though I purged, I still had to start my Day 1 all over again (making today Day 4 instead of Day 7). >_<

Anyway, third time is the charm, I guess, because I am ultra-determined once again (like I was at the start of my previous 1 month fast), which is so relieving because last week I was having a hell of a time getting into fasting mind state. I wanted to eat... and fasting is impossible if you want to eat.

So anyway, I pushed through, and then today... all my joy was returned to me; jittery jaw, endless energy, inverted stomach (it had been poking out for the last week... fucking disgusting), sharper senses, etc.

I will do this. I will fast for another 20 days and then another month after that if need be. Because I refuse to let myself down this time, like I have for years before. I refuse to remain eternally trapped inside myself.

  1. I'm thinking of you! So glad you pushed through. That's what I need to do. I've been struggling for months to just get through the first day. (Damn that Mia!) But I know that wonderful feeling of empty is just around the corner and once you get it...it is so hard to let it go.

    Sending you love and strength!

  2. I just started a fast today. It's only for 4 days. But wow, 30 days. That's amazing, I sincerely hope you make it. Best of luck. You are an inspiration.

  3. I start writing a blog about my life with my eating
    disorder and my addiction to fashion. I really need readers,
    because in my real life I had no listeners. Alone, yes I was
    always alone with my thoughts, in those days I didn't care about it.
    Untill I discovered the blogs and learnt how good it can feel to have
    readers. Readers, which share the same intress and have the same
    feelings after a shitty snack attack.
