Day 3 of planned 3 days of eating
Well my theory held out, for one day at least. I hoped that if I kept my carbs <20 that I would not gain weight on my current 'refeed' after 5 days of fasting. I am going to try to do the same today and then start a 5 day fast on Monday.
When I did eat yesterday, I was not eating 'mindfully'. My actions, my brain, my spirit, was in a mode of 'giveme!, giveme!, giveme!'. My only thoughts were 'Fill me up! Now!'. After so much fasting I would hope I would know how destructive this attitude is and would have 'improved'.
Perhaps the fasting has allowed me the perspective to at least 'really see it'?
Anyway, as I plan to start what may be my last 5 day fast for awhile (my weight is getting too low to fast for that long). Instead of just thinking "Lose Weight Lose Weight" I want to appreciate that my body is able to sustain me and provide what I need without taking in anything 'extra' other than liquids.
When I do break the fast, I need to appreciate the nourishment that I am 'gifted' to receive, rather than 'taking it for granted'.
However, for today @PrincessValerie is making ribs! (Gotta love Keto...)
Giveme! Giveme! Giveme! :)
