Day 4 of 28

---

Today’s journal actually starts from last night, after posting about day 3. I went to bed, and began facing acid reflux or heatburn before sleeping. It was a bearable discomfort as I’ve dealth with acid reflux a lot throughout my life.

It kept waking me up through the night. I woke up maybe 7-8 times throughout the night from the discomfort of the acid reflux and it made for an overall unpleasant night to say the least.

I was rudely awakened by a leg cramp which lasted about a minute. We all know and hate those, where you are sleeping one moment, and you are jolted into a leg cramp and in sheer agony.

By the time the cramping ended, my stomach began telling me that what I was doing was crazy and urged me to eat something immediately. However I shot back to my stomach and my brain, with a “Fuck you I’m Batman”, and I continued on my way.

After that major hunger pang, my level of hunger for the remainder of the day was quite manageable. I was even at one point standing in front of hundreds of pastries (which are my favourite foods) as my partner picked out rolls for her lunch, and not only was I not cracking or breaking down, I was oddly calm and didn’t feel much.

Seems like fasting gives you some level of Jedi level mindset.

However, due to absolutely terrible sleep I felt last night, my day has been extremely low energy and generally feeling weak. Though the whole “not eating” part may be playing a part. In the grand scheme of things, I would say that it wasn’t exactly a painful experience.

However due to how I was feeling I felt sicky today and spent a good 6 hours off from the day by sleeping in the day as well. I believe this is the already the worst of the transitional period as my body is going through the most painful part of the transition and begin detoxing. I expect to feel much better with each following day from today.

Seeing as how I am feeling today, today’s post will be just what I have been going through and I will continue covering the effects and science of fasting more tomorrow onwards.

I have been spending more time reading up on fasting and am actually very intrigued with the historical relevance of how it has been used as far back as humanity goes. I hope to share more interesting topics in regards to fasting alongside my own journey.

For today however, I am taking it easy.

Till tomorrow,

God Speed Brethren.
