Day Five Complete
I suppose you could say that I cheated on the diet today, as I took communion at church. I don’t think, though, that the wafer and teaspoonful of grape juice are going to do lasting damage … even if it’s not strictly cricket to eat it on the lemonade diet. As we only have communion once a month, it’s only going to be an issue once, maybe twice, during my stint on the fast.
I’m having a bit of trouble mentally. I can’t stop thinking about how nice it will be when I can eat again. LOL. I see commercials on television and even things I don’t like seem tempting. When I think about the vegetable soup I can eat after ending the fast, I am consumed with yearning for the taste of it. It’s all mental, and I just have to deal with it. I am not going to let my mind make me stop early. My body, yes. My mind, no.
I hope.
