DAY ONE

Well breakfast was a delicious (though not so filling) cup of herbal Detox tea.   I had planned to juice a honeydew melon when I first got up this morning but in true me fashion instead of heeding all good advise and easing myself into this fast gently by eating good nutritious foods yesterday . . . I indulged in wine, cheese, tortilla chips and popcorn.  And more wine.  uggh.  My head felt like a balloon this morning.  And the last thing I wanted to do was listen to another grinding melon.

Usually this is an easy fix.  A few cups of coffee restore me to my 'clear-headedness' and off I go for the day.  But not today.

Today is day one of my fast.  I expect that I will have this headache for the rest of the day.  I don't really feel 'hungry' yet but I know that as soon as I am around the sights and smells of food that will kick in pretty quickly.  Supposedly the first 2-3 days of any fast are the hardest and after that your body re-adjusts and hunger and pain are things of the past.  

I am looking forward to that!!
