Fasting-Day 3

Today was interesting...to say the least. I wasn't able to sleep well at all last night...got about 3 hours and finally was frustrated enough with tossing and turning to get out of bed about 4am. Took a shower and folded some laundry. Then out of nowhere...hot and cold sweats and super nausea! Yuck! So I laid down on the couch until the boy I nanny got here at 530a, then he went to sleep on the couch, so I did too until he woke up about 9a. It was very hard for me to fall asleep though. I kept having weird sensations like tingling and electricity through my body and kept on with the sweating. Not fun. After we woke up again, I felt much better! I do however have slightly achy joints, especially in my knees, and an achy lower back...which I am thinking is my kidneys doing their overdrive filtering thing. Hunger and headaches come and go in waves... usually when I am smelling something delicious. I had pretty much no energy for the first half of the day, but it gradually increased as the day went on. Listening to worship music helped me a lot with re-focusing on my goals. The girls and I went to a dear friends house today and everyone (except me) had pizza for dinner. I was surprised that it didn't really affect me at all....I was able to stand at the table and chat with everyone with not so much as a watery mouth! I left their home and went to clean the church and was surprised how much energy I had to do so. The only real difference I noticed in my routine was it was a little harder to carry the mop bucket up and down the stairs, but I may have filled it a little higher than usual. My skin is going crazy regardless of me wearing no makeup and washing twice a day. :/

Overall, I started the day feeling like poo, and now I feel pretty "normal" and decent. I am really hoping for a decent night's sleep tonight. I am (weirdly) excited to see how tomorrow will go :) Tomorrow I will be doing another weight, body fat %, lean muscle %, and waist breakdown.
