Fasting update; day five

Today is the fifth day of my urine fast. Yesterday I felt pretty weak and still hungry. It is difficult to be around food cooking. My senses are all more acute--smells especially! Today I feel less hungry, so smelling food isn't as bothersome.

I've lost weight since starting the fast. When I started I weighed 127 pounds; this morning I weighed 117. I hope the weight loss slows down; I can't afford to lose 10 pounds every five days!

I went to yoga class this morning, and my friend and teacher Kyla had a very slow and easy yoga session. Afterwords I was so happy that she had time to give me a massage. (Kyla is also a massage therapist.) The massage was heavenly, and I feel really good. I think getting massages is important on this fasting treatment. The slow stretches of yoga also help.
