Day 8 of Water Fast

Today is the start of Day 8. Unlike many females, I don't like to shop but I'm going to have to break down and buy some digital scales. The ones I have now show my weight all over the place.

So far, Day 2 & 3 were definitely hardest as far as energy levels. Stomach growling and thinking about food, that's actually been the past couple days. I'm committed to seeing this through though. I know I'm not done detoxing because the tongue is still white and breath is less than stellar.

The pilates in the morning seems to help jump start my energy level for the day. Still averaging 4 large tumblers of water (guessing they are 20oz in size). I am more cognizant of resting when my body starts feeling tired.

Unlike a lot where are starting a fast today because it's Aug 1 and/or New Moon, I don't seem to do well to things like that. I just mentally think, "Right, that's it, let's do this," and jump right in - which is how this water fast began. I have no set completion date and the longer I stick to it, the more I want to stay committed to it.
