2020-06-05T04:00:00Z This 5 day fast is about weight loss.
*Overall I am on this journey to loose weight, and heal all the organs that need it. I also need to regulate an autoimmune disease.(Graves disease that affects my eyes.)
-
My long term goal is to loose 50 lbs.
-
My game plan is to cycle OMAD, intermittent Fasting + Keto + Water Fasting.

I struggle with my mind telling me it is OK to break my fast because I am tired, weak, or have a busy day at work.I have a hard time distracting myself when I feel like eating or get a craving. I usually don’t get hungry when fasting. I get overwhelming urges to eat what I crave at that instant. If it is a healthy craving like eggs , my brain says " Just one won’t hurt you." But then I have broken my water fast.
*I am feeling pretty good today. I had 2 meals today, and just started my 5 day water fast.

I did finish a 7 day water fast in the 7 day challenge group. I was really sick, tired,blank and nauseous. I woke up day 5. It was like a miracle! I was clear and felt “normal”.The contrast was remarkable.
If I feel that good this time I will make my 5 day a 7 day. I joined the following 7 day challenge and expected to continue, but got triggered by the idea of eating between challenges. Then I lost momentum. -
When I am near my goal weight I can imagine feeling light and active. I will jog for 20 min without getting winded. I can go back to the gym and feel strong when I lift weights.I be able to buy clothes I like in any store.

I like the example affirmation of "I am passionate, I am strong, I am capable and I will achieve my dream body once and for all, no more excuses!
Day 1 here I come!
