New Regime Day 2

26 April 2010, 08.45 hrs Thailand, (approx)

I was suppose to update yesterday, but I slept. Yes, I feel asleep. Only to wake today morning when they brought me the break fast.

Sorry for not reporting earlier. Here I report for day 2.

I managed to get 1 lime and baking soda drink, earlier in the day on an empty stomach. I squeezed the lime first, then started sprinkling baking soda to it, till it stopped fizzing. It was fun thing to do. Need patience and time. Adding all the baking soda together is not advised. Eventually I ended up something approximately half a teaspoon or little more of baking soda. Does not taste nice. Not offending taste but not pleasant either.

I also managed to complete Vitamin C super dose. This time I used orange juice, apparently it was containing vitamin C to level of 130% of Thai RDI, which I have no clue what the value of. I added 1 and half teaspoon of pure vitamin C powder, which is approximated 6000 mg. There was not much of difference in taste, at least I didn't find any.

Managed to get 2 litres of water. I intend to get at least 3 litres. I am skipping one meal. Bringing it down to 2 meals a day. Planning to start Turmeric on 28 April.

Observation:

I was alert the entire day. Mind was clear, sharper and was not feeling fatigues or dragged. Physically, however, I was the same as before. Tired, in pain and a little stiff. Extremely weak too. Towards evening, around 6.30, when I had already completed my juice drink and had some water too, I decided to take a break, as it is the time when even Internet connection is clogged. I lay down, closed my eyes and before I could know, I slept. Only to wake up today morning. Fresh, muscles are less stiff today.

Markers:

Pain: same (high)

Fluid discharge from wounds : same (pus, blood and smelling horrible)

Alertness: Improved (was usually groggy and heavy eyed at times just sleepy but not able to sleep)

Sleep: Slept like a baby after such long time.

Over all: Not much different.

Misc: Urge, carving for smoking has gone down. So has the carving for coffee.

To all those who are following this, especially readers from earth clinic website, please do post questions and comments and I will be happy to answer. Honestly I need some motivation and cheering. :) Thank you.
