Day Three

Still water-fasting. 134

I have a birthday party to attend on Friday night and the birthday boy is a chef. *ugh* I'm going to avoid the food as much as possible, bring water and ask for tea as soon as I get there. It's funny. People look at you like you're crazy if you don't eat anything, but if you ask for a cup of tea, everything is normal. ??

Last night I tried a peice of sugar-free gum when I got home from work. It tasted so wonderful but it led from one peice to another-to another until I had chewed so much gum that my jaw was hurting. It didn't actually start any hunger pains, but I'll have to be careful about 'binging' on gum.
