Yes, its day two and somehow I feel like I got through something pretty big, though I have only been on it for one day. I woke up feeling tired, but this could be because it’s that time of the month. This is so awkward telling everyone that, but if you are going to go on this journey with me might as well know why some days seem harder than others. With the fibroids, I lose an immense amount of blood; I know what your thinking “Gross!!” Gross, but its reality. And losing so much literally feels like I go through a major car accident every month, where I lose so much blood that at times I truly think I have maybe a pint left in me. It’s excessive. The one thing I do notice is that when I am not on raw during this time of the month, the blood lose is worst.
I weighed myself this morning. I weigh 129.4 pounds. This is four pounds less than yesterday. Now it could be the blood loss, but I think its more likely less water retention. I am not as bloaty as I was yesterday. This is pretty typical of being on raw, even after one day. I recall a time when I was on raw for a week and lost 13 pounds in seven days. Some say that it is unhealthy, but I felt amazing that week. Another thing I noticed is that my stomach was not as inflamed as it was yesterday. The reduction of swelling all over your body is pretty common, even after one day. Acidic foods keep your body in a constant state of inflammation. It’s how the body deals with it. When you alkalize, it slowly releases you out of this inflamed state.
I have been feeling very tired today. I am constantly going to the bathroom to pee. In the process my water retention has gone done considerably. What is really noticeable is the size of my face and nose. I am starting to see that my nose has actually become smaller and that I have definition to my cheekbones. Its interesting to see how much water I have been retaining. Its interesting to see how losing it reshapes your face. Its like getting plastic surgery without the plastic part…yupee!!!
My weight today is: 129.4 lbs.
