Day 2
Evening of day two.
I ended up staying out of work again today, as a fever hit me in the night, and I woke up with a headache, grogginess and nausea. I ended up tripling my probiotic dose today, hoping this would help me run the headcold out of my body. I also added one other supplement: colloidal silver spray. I kept hoping this was all detox affect, but as I wrote yesterday, I just can’t agree to that as the virus symptoms started before I even committed to this fast. Good news, however, that my detox symptoms will at least blend into the virus symptoms, and the fast will help my body release everything naturally and faster I think.
No hunger pains whatsoever. This has gone easier than it ever has before. I’m thinking it may be partially due to the cold virus. Regardless, I do feel it has spead up my immune system’s ability to fight it off. The achyness subsided miday today, although I still have lingering aches in my lower extremities. My nose is stuffy too, but that just started after the headache, and for me, that IS a detox symtom, so this may be from the fast.
Now how are the goals?
Mild tonsil ache, but nowhere near where it had been before.
Clear mind.
No chocolate cravings.
So aside from the tonsil, I’m meeting my goals head on, and feel good about that.
Hoping to sleep soundly tonight, and get to enjoy the weekend. There is a massive thunderstorm outside, so relaxation is important. (Sometimes it is hard for me to sleep when it is stormy outside.) I’m going to take it easy and relax, as I know I’m still fighting the headcold and I HAVE to be back on the mark on monday. I don’t do well missing work, so much to do.
Today I’ve had 2 quarts of the master cleanse drink, made with lemons and limes mixed. I’ve been sleepy, so I’ve not required much in terms of calories. In a way, I have the opportunity for complete physiological rest, so I could have elected to switch to water fasting for the rest of the weekend, but on the other hand, I’d have wanted to do that with my doctor’s approval, and I’m still awaiting my latest adrenal and thyroid test results so my appt is next week.
I was reading in Braggs fasting book that he recommends fasting when you feel a head cold coming on. This is a practice I got involved with several years ago, and it seems to be working well for me now. Fresh fruit and veggie juices just invigorate me and make me feel like my immune system is charging. I think some garlic juice is in store for me tomorrow…Garlic is a great balancing for the immune system. Greens juice and garlic here I come..
For now though, some sleep.
