Water Fasting: Day 2

Almost, almost talked myself into eating but mom to the rescue saved the day by saying "No just go to your room you're only going to end up binging!" I love that woman to death sometimes! She is supportive about these types of things at the perfect moments. I am in my room rightfully watching thinspo and praying I make it through the night without cracking!

Made it through the night without waking up (only once to turn off my music and let my hair down) but other then that...

I went to bed at 2am and woke up just now at late 5 early 6 pm! Amazing my ability to sleep like that when I know there is sooooo much work I have to get done TODAY, because I did not try to finish it over the coarse of the weekend.

TIP: It is surprising how easy it is to fast if you have a little fasting warm up first!

Oh my goodness I truly am addicted to blogging! Anyways, Almost done with day 1 1/2 (because I only counted yesterday as 1/2 a day) I still say this is day 2 though so tomorrow will be day 3 not...whatever. It is so easy! I have not drank much water which I should have..be... Blah I just don't want to leave my room it is so safe in here and I feel like if I do, even once, the spell will be broken and I will be suffering through my fast just like last time! Silly, but I am very superstitious so what are you going to do. 

Eep! Bikini shopping!

I am so, so, so excited to go bikini shopping! I am not thin enough yet, and I am not going until my fast is over (which is only more motivating because I am getting one rather I lose weight or not so I need to lose weight or it'll be a waste of money!) I am so excited! My best friend who lives in Alabama is coming down to spend yet another summer with me and we are going to get matching ones (neon pink!) and belly button rings, then after a week or so we will go to a water/theme park! Either Six Flags in Dallas or Magic Springs in Arkansas. Decisions, decisions. 

Still on day 1 of fasting, I am actually enjoying this fast and relishing in the temptations and cravings knowing food no longer has its greasy claws in my back! But that may be due to the fact that I have 50 thinspo videos in a playlist on repeat :) 

I have an old bathing suit as motivation too, I have it on a hanger, hanging where I can see it no matter what! My bathroom door is always open so I can see my body whenever I walk past, and my stand up mirror is out of the closet ready to slice and dice if I decide I am not so sure how bad I really want to be thin!

MY ALL TIME FAVORITE THINSPO(S):

So many! There are more but I don't want this post to be 10 pages long, I am such a Thinspo addict!! <3

I love you all, and good luck to those who are fasting or wanting to fast, stay strong and know that there are others going through the same thing too so don't feel too alone, darlings!

Water

To know how many fluid ounces of water you need to be drinking a day divide your weight by 2. 

For instance, if you are 140 lb (63.5 kg) you will be needing to drink 70 fluid ounces (2100 mL). 

Do NOT use your goal weight in hopes that drinking less water will get you to that weight faster, it WON'T

Here are some tips for fast weight loss:

• Drink the right amount of fluid ounces of water EVERY DAY, this will flush out toxins, lower appetite, cause you to not retain fluids anymore and you will lose weight through your pee.
• Drink water when you wake up, 30 minutes before every meal, 30 minutes after every meal, before bed. NOTE: These are not the only times to drink water, drink water through out the day not all at once, it just helps to follow this to space out most of your water intake, the rest needs to be done on your own time.
• Ice cold water burns calories but it needs to be as close to room temperature as you can get it if you are wanting to drink water to help with hunger pains. So: Refrigerate and let it sit for about 10-20 minutes before drinking if you are having hunger pains. Freeze your waters, select one (or two depending on how fast you drink) and place them in the fridge, wait until they are thawed enough to drink, this is GREAT for burning calories!

Water is not only good for weight loss, it is great for your skin, hair and nails, it is also amazing for your organs and bodily functions so your body does not have to work so hard. I advise that if water is not already your best friend or you do not already drink it religiously, then make some changes immediately.
