I stopped the fast today. Yesterday all I ended up consuming the whole day outside of water was a combined 8oz consisting of one 1/2 glass of lemonade (4oz) and a half glass of that green crap (4oz). And water, of course. By the end of the day I was pretty much a not-so-hot-mess. I decided that five days was not so bad... and if I wanted to try again in a month or so, I know I can do a least that much. This morning Brett woke me up with a smoothie he made (delicious-and awesome), then we went to India Palace where I had a small plate, and it was soooooo good. I think the most important thing I discovered is that I have that kind capacity and self control. Also I can control all that emotional eating.
Oh, and I lost 15 lbs. Which I will gain back soon more than likely. But for now, I will wear my skinny jeans.

I'm so J of the weight loss (even if it is temporary) and the India Palace. All the Indian food here does a number on my stomach, even the mild. Congrats on making it as far as you wanted through your fast.
