My fast was interrupted for 2 1/2 days, so I completed my fast a few days later.
For this fast, I was really motivated to detox, so my mind didn’t reach out for thoughts of eating as it had done for the first 3 days of my prior fasts.
I didn’t experience any foul symptom, though on the last 3 days of the water fast, it was more difficult. My felt a little achy in my leg muscles, I was slow in my thinking responses, had less energy and was very weak and lightheaded. Also, on the 3rd day of water, I was surprised that I had eliminated after 15 day of not eating, which i didn’t expect. With that, I experienced cramping and had no control of when that happened. After that explosion, I felt so good and full of energy that I set out to the state park for a little hiking and exploration. My senses were so crisp and sharp and felt I could breath more deeply. I also had this sense of deeper connection with the trees, plants and song birds of the forest. I was at the park for 5 hours, but I didn’t hike the entire time. I explored many trails a short distance in then and left to explore another trails and other elements of the park. My experience with this fast was everything I needed it to be. I am so full of gratitude and appreciation. I have introduced juice today, but had cramping and another uncontrolled elimination. I also worked out with weights on my first day refeeding, to set a new pattern, a new beginning of what kind of relationship I want to experience with my body and and how I think about food. I am planning on eating soft fruit tomorrow, but depending on how my body feels, I may continue the juice fast. Best fast ever for me!
