This has gone surprisingly well. I shared with dh what Jen said in her blog re: "One is too many and a thousand is never enough." I think he *really* got it. He talked to me for almost an hour about what it is like to live with food addiction. I don't know if he GETS it, but at least he is an ally.
Last night and today I have had a slight sinus pressure and I feel a little extra tired. I did notice that I have been sleeping like a baby tho. Sleep has been an issue with me for almost 12 years now-so this is a wonderful change.
AND
true to my theory-my pH was 7.0 this morning and I lost .5 of a lb. For the 2 days prior my pH was 6.0 and I didn't lose an ounce. Now today-better pH=increased weight loss. I may have stated this before-but let me just say for the record-I am not interested in the NUMBER on the scale. I am however testing my theory that my acid levels are in direct correlation with my weight, so at the moment I am tracking my pH levels with my weight to see if I can find a pattern. So far, so good.

    That is an intersting theory, I will be curious to know how it goes. I can't figure myself out for the life of me. Really. I gained two pounds while I was still fasting. How did that happen? Who knows. I need to just stay off the scale except for once a month. I don't want to get frustrated if I gain, it will not do me any good, I just need to eat simnple raw and be happy. :)

    Hey Zaphirah, that's so great! It's nice to have our DH's support isn't it? Mine is like I'll stop eating at night with you. We keep trying. Ha! Last night was better though. Only fruit for both of us. He did have some seeds though. He's not even raw. That's so interesting about the PH level. I'll be curious what you find out. You may have something there. That could make sense on why one can't lose weight or gains weight on a fast like Iamloved. Huh? Keep us posted, please!
