Hoped I'd wake up on day 4 feeling magically free of hunger, like everyone says you do.
In my case, everyone is wrong. I'm hungry. Not ravenous, but in a dull ache kind of way. The kind of hunger you feel around 11 a.m. I'm feeling at 6 a.m.
But other than that I'm feeling aware. Like I'm waking up from a dream in which I was ravenously hungry, but it was something of a delusion.
An hour later after coffee and a litre of water, I feel better. Not hungry, light and relaxed. Feeling ready to grow.
I looked in the mirror after brushing my teeth and said to myself "you're never going to be fat again." It felt like a fact. It was a fact.
Later in the day I had coffee with my brother. We had a quite emotional conversation about my mother, but I felt very even keeled.
