Another "women" venting thread.

I think it's said that weight loss should be done GRADUALLY, not a large amount in a short amount of time.

Ideally, sure. Ideally, weight loss is about living a healthy lifestyle, not an extreme purging. But if that extreme purging helps you live a healthy lifestyle....well, people have been going on fasts for millennia and seem to think it does them spiritual and physical good, so as long as you feel good about it, I guess it can't be too bad.

And as for today, my fast has been broken.

It was a ten day fast. I decided to break it while meditating -- my body wanted solid fod. So I bought some OJ, and weened myself off the Sauce.

I had an amazingly good dinner tonight with a friend. Not only was it basically a gourmet dinner, but it was the first food I'd have in 10 days. I had tomato soup. Ordinarily, I dig a good tomato soup. But when its supremely good tomato soup and my pallette is completely cleansed ... yeah, it was so good it was almost sexual.

I'm not certian about the fasting. I'm hypoglacemic and I worry about how that will mix with a fast. What I am doing is (A) no breakfast (B) raw fruit, vegitables, rice cakes and water for lunch (D) sensible dinner. I've lost a couple of pounds in a week now.

Look at it this way, now you're free to sleep with her sister.

Great, is she available?

Great, is she available?

If so then I heartily recommend exploring this option. I lost my virginity to a girlfriend's older sister. It was, hands down, the best virginity I ever lost.
