INTRO
hello, it’s quarantine - but not even that - i feel unhealthy in so many ways lately.
- lazy
- sluggish
- lack of self-control
- tired
- gain in fat/ loss of muscle
- boring
so, i want to challenge myself and try to achieve my long-awaited goal of completing a 5-day fast! i’ve been water fasting for a year and a half now, but only 1, 2 and 3-day fasts. i’m very excited for this one, but this is when my life has been the least busy since starting fasting so that’s a worry i have.
WHY
low self-esteem with how i look lately, and also feeling like i need to practice some self-diligence. i also think it’d be really good for my mental health which has been hit hard recently.
LONG-TERM & SHORT-TERM GOALS
Long-term: healthier relationship with food (listen to self-cues better, and see which foods are better suited for me)
Short-term: lose x pounds, feel SUPER PROUD I COULD DO IT!
STRUGGLES
feeling weird every day in my clothes, in pictures, with partners, even friends and family. i want to feel comfortable and myself, again. i want to feel more at peace. i also have used water fasting as a guise to just not, feed myself, in an anorexic mindset. i need to remember to practice self-love and compassion!
GAME PLAN
i’d like to maybe do a 5-day fast once a month, or 2 to 3-day fasts every other week (some sort of more regulated form of fasting with my new living situation). i would like to get down to ___ weight! (omitting numbers because may be triggering for others to see 
)
HOW DO I FEEL RIGHT NOW
I feel very excited, and like i just really really really want to be able to achieve this! especially for the emotional de-toxing !!!
HOW WILL I FEEL ONCE I ACHIEVE MY GOAL
i’ll feel way more relaxed, and proud. it’ll take time and patience and lots of self-love. i’ll feel more confident everyday.
DAILY AFFIRMATION
i’m strong, a bad bitch, funny, kind, honest, smart, compassionate, and I WILL GET THIS WATER
