Day 2

I'm not gonna lie, last night was rough. I had a hard time falling asleep but I think it's because I slept so much during the day. I fell asleep around 11:30 and then woke up to my parents alarm clock around 5 this morning. I tried to go back to bed but I couldn't fall asleep. My body kept going from hot to cold, hot to cold and I was really uncomfortable. I honestly felt like death. My muscles felt like they didn't exist and they had no strength at all. I was incredibley nauseous and the thought of the tea and lemonade made me want to throw up. I tried to get out of bed and I was so dizzy that I couldn't walk. I made it out of my room and to the top of the stairs and layed there for about 5 minutes. Somehow I made it down the stairs and to my kitchen and I don't know how cuz I really was struggling. I honestly felt like I was going to die. I had no strength, my vision was so off from how dizzy I was, and I was ready to throw up.

I had decided to give up and start another day. I couldn't drink the tea even if I wanted to. I knew it would come right back up. And the thought of the sweet lemonade was even worse. I got out some bran cereal, nothing even sounded good, and I had a little handful of that. I literally couldn't even stand. I got my bowl and spoon and then sat on the floor, crawled to the fridge and cereal cupboard, got everything out and then ate on the floor. I had a really hard time swallowing and getting anything down. I ate maybe half of the cereal and then made it back upstairs and was able to sleep for a couple more hours. I woke up feeling a little better but still really dizzy every time I stood. I was definitely ready to give up and I know I cheated with the cereal but I decided to get back to it. They say the first few days you will feel like death and they are not kidding. I'm serious!!

The tea was really hard to get down this morning. I chugged it fast and then couldn't stop gagging and threw up just a little. Sorry I know that's gross. I had my first lemonade drink after and that was around noon. My plan is to drink one every 1 1/2 hours today and get through at least 5 drinks. I know I need 6 but I will be satisfied if I can get myself through the 5 today because again I got a late start from the rough morning and I did have the one meal of cereal.

I made it through the rest of the day feeling pretty good. I think that I got a couple of baby headaches but they didn't last long. I drank 5 drinks total and I stopped drinking at 6. Night time was hard because I'm such a late night eater. I was really hungry but didn't give in and went to bed around 11. I forgot to drink the tea at night so I'll need to get more on top of that for the days to come.
