If ever a prison is looking for a worse punishment than torture or death...let them have their inmates fast and then set them around food. Allah is my witness, the smells nearly drove me insane, today. Every cell in my body cried out for salty goodness, food, ANYTHING but those sickly lemon drinks. But I stuck with it. Nearly wet myself on a student's driveway due to all these extra fluids, but I made it to the bathroom.
It's now 10 pm. I've been up since 4 am. I'm tired, cranky and headachy. I drank the minimum amount of the lemon drink. I didn't drink nearly enough water. As a result, my body horded all the water it has in fear of dehydration. End result: though I ate nothing today, I'm 2 pounds heavier than I was this morning.
I'm feeling very discouraged as I sit here sipping my herbal laxative tea....especially since there's good Spanish chicken and rice sitting in my fridge...and hubby bought me a strawberry smoothie from Baskin Robbins....god, that was the worst....however I shall maintain this fast for 28 days inshallah, so help me god!!!
I'm out.
