This is my second week since starting and my third fasting day! The only bad thing with fasting on Monday is I work two jobs on Monday I wake up around 2am so I can work out before work. I start my first job at 4am, I make sandwiches and wraps for fishing charters, they have called in the orders the day before. So its very fast paced and I’m running back and forth I only work until 6:45am but I run out the door because I start job number 2 at 7:00 am. I work for an irrigation company, and I do accounts payable, accounts receivable, sales, pretty much anything they ask, but as soon as I get here I have to count the drawer and get the money put out and turn on the lights open the bay doors. I can then finally sit for a second in my office where I change my shirt from my other job and brush my hair and put on some makeup so I don’t scare the contractors. By this time I am usually starving and will eat anything brought to work by co workers, doughnuts, leftover cake, cookies, we had ice cream and coffee for breakfast a few weeks ago. I would eat all day Monday, I get off around 5:00 I then have to run to the store before I pick kids up from sports at 6pm and then go home cook, do laundry, bathe, clean the house go to bed start all over.

I never gave any fasting diets a glance because I thought there was no way I could do it. My first two days last week I had three 160 protein shakes breakfast lunch and dinner and sooooo much water and tea. Today though I made it all the way to lunch and only had 130 calorie shake, it is now 4 pm and I am still sitting at 130 calories and quite satisfied with my self because I know I will make it through the next hour and I can go home and eat the 300 calorie tuna snack pack and a hard boiled egg and be at exactly 500 calories!

Last Monday I spent the whole day dreaming about what I would eat on Tuesday, I had three slices of stuffed crust pizza in the fridge ready for breakfast and a whole bunch of other things ready to eat, I didn’t even finish one slice of pizza and I tried to eat a lean cusine mac and cheese at lunch, only finished maybe a quarter of it.

I do not dread fasting days at all in fact I look forward to ridding my body of any toxins I may have ate on the other five days and knowing if I mess up on my diet during the five days its ok because I’m going to reset and try again after the fasting day.
