Second day of breaking the fast

7:00am exercise

7:30am small yoghurt linseed and honey

7:45am small bowl of baked beans

Barley cup drink

10:30am green salad with fresh basil and two table spoons of sweetcorn
with french dressing.
Chewing this gave me a jaw ache, from underused muscles.
Just goes to show that if you don't use certain muscles for a month they need building up again.

11am Orange and mango juice 100%
Juice and water helps stop me from wanting to eat and eat.

1pm Lunch country soup mix
containing aduki beans
barley flakes, pearl barley, red split lentils,
green split peas, yellow split peas
marrowfat peas.
to which i added
sweetcorn, garlic, stock, herbs. finely chopped red onion,
half a large red hot chilli pepper and white pepper. fresh basil on top.

 I used to blend the soup but I like and need the chewing.
pudding was a small handful of dates.

barleycup drink

8pm Dinner; bowl of small green salad, country soup
pudding; a few dates.

Midnight snack; 6 strawberries and 2 tablespoons of cottage cheese (gotta use up that tub that I bought)

Hunger is stronger and the days go quicker. I bought a couple of recipe books for vegetarian ideas.
After the soup I feel pretty stuffed. At first I thought I'd eaten too much but after a couple of hours felt better.
Carrying food in my intestines feels a bit odd after so much time on liquids. I don't have as much energy as when I was fasting but at least I'm eating healthy. One thing I forgot to mention when I was fasting was the groaning stomach noises, which was a regular thing, I don't know why I forgot to mention this. Things have quietened down now fortunately.
I don't miss wheat. The green salad with french dressing is amazing to me, a couple of months ago I would never have got a buzz from eating that. This is great, health food is more satisfying than fried chicken wings. Hopefully I can keep on a good diet for as long as possible. I certainly need to keep eating this way for the next two weeks at least. I'm glad I'm not missing bread. I wanted to cut down on wheat. This fast has given me an appreciation of healthy food like I've never had before, even after a twenty one day fast.
Had a late night bowel movement, eureka!
