Day 3

Day 3 of the fast... Hunger is slowly going away, which is fantastic. However, I had a few problems with lightheadedness. But after consulting the almighty Google again, I found that this too is normal during the early stages. Whew! Haha! I was worried I was going to have to start eating already. No way, no how! This feels too good! I feel... empty... And like I'm shrinking, which is the most amazing feeling of all.

Lost two pounds yesterday, which is grand. At first when I saw that I was a little worried that it was slowing down already. But, I found some more info about fasting while I was searching for lightheadedness. Scroll all the way down to the bottom portion of this article to get help with extended fasts like mine. It even lays out what your body is doing the first few days that may help you better understand why your weight is doing what its doing. It was extremely helpful (and encouraging) for me.
