It's amazing all the things I noticed during the fast. After 3 days, my nose didn't drip at all. nothing. no morning mucus and nose blowing regime. One bite of food and it was back.
Peanut butter gave me froggy throat. interesting. miso gave me heartburn. sheesh.
Yoga is wonderful and, gee, maybe I was in that bad of shape! my arms and shoulders were so terribly sore, achy...I did yoga. tried the whole time to talk myself out of doing the whole routine (I have a DVD I follow) because my arms were sore, I felt light headed. well, I plugged through and WOW, did I feel great afterwards!!!! and my arms were better. I think I had just not done enough and they were stuck.
so, yoga it is. at the very least, I walk up the hill to the mailboxes (1 mile). but I think I'll hang with the yoga for a while.
I've probably gained all that weight back by now. sigh. so, what did I learn from the fast? hmmm. that I can't do that and work full time? uh, some foods (and beverages) are unhealthy? well, there's breaking news.
EXERCISE is the key. this has been my philosophy all along. However, I was compelled to do that fast, and I did it. goody for me. whether or not I cleaned some old stuff out remains to be seen.
Springtime in the rockies and it's 5 degrees outside and snowed last night. brrrrr.
Warm cup of tea, here I come.
