So just an update on my Xtreme water fast.

It's been a struggle to subsist on just water for weeks at a time; I've managed to do two three-day water fasts and two one-day water fasts. In between those, I've eaten a meal here and there and this past weekend, I ate a lot of fruits, veggies and clear soups in Quebec City.

I just couldn't pass up the cuisine at the Hilton, where the Addiction Studies Workshop for Journalists was conducted. That was an AWESOME time, but I digress.

I am back on my final 10-day water fast, but I have noticed a distressing side effect -- I get REALLY sick some mornings. Take this morning for instance -- I threw up my toenails, probably because I took my multivitamin and drank some green tea together. I think maybe the reaction poisoned my body.

 
That said -- if you are intending on trying a water fast, it is worth it. I am bikini ready, tanned and toned so it accomplished its purpose. But if you DO fast, do it on a non-work day and DON'T take ANYTHING, even a multivitamin.

Nuff said.
