Day 17 - wow
no time for weigh in yet again
Okay so before bed I had a glass of lemonade because I burnt up a lot of energy while jumping. Well right after drinking it I had the worst pain ever. My stomach and back started to hurt simultaneously and I felt like barfing/pooping (lol). I lay down quickly and massaged my stomach for a while and it subsided. I read later that jumping activates the bowels? I think if I was eating solids it would affect me a lot more.
I slept like a freaking rock and couldn't wake up. The soft pitter patter of rain on my windows didn't help either. Rain always lulls me to sleep. I realized that because I'm not consuming enough calories and constantly expending a lot, it could be why I'm always tired in the morning. I will try to remedy that today - drinking more lemonade and sleeping earlier.
I feel super energetic despite my initial exhaustion this morning. I can't wait to jump again today. I am still also using my stepper and doing resistance bands. I will take it easier until my muscles recover.
Update - I am having my 1st lemonade of the day with carbonated water- Oh My Gahh! It is like...mana from the gods. Delicious. It tastes like soda. Spicy soda. I feel like I'm cheating lol. Mine is plain carbonated water, no added sugars and sodium free. I made sure to pop it in the freezer so it was super chilled (I love ice cold water). I've read varying posts from people who have used it with no adverse effects and from others who are against it. You do what your intuition tells you. I think it's a nice treat but it will by no means replace the regular lemonade.
My asmr obsession today is spring rolls
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2Zucgkos2k I hate spring rolls but the crunchy sounds are to die for lol. I try to watch foods I wouldn't eat outside the mc. I am listening to food eating sounds on earbuds and working. Is that crazy? Lol. It helps me focus. Have I mentioned that outside of this fast I found asmr videos annoying and weird af? It's like my salvation right now. I still hate the talky ones though.
I've been having bouts of acid reflux the last few days. The only change I made was the type of lemons. The organic ones are pricey af, but don't didn't give me any burning sensations.
Happy MC to whoever is reading this.
