Live Below the Line: Day 4

I am so hungry that food—real food—in TV shows makes me tear up. I tried to distract myself with some Modern Family episodes, and food was everywhere. Gloria and Cam cooked up something. I don’t know what it was, but I wanted a taste sooo badly. Alex staged a Norman Rockwell painting (below) with the fam, complete with a giant turkey. But it was an apple from a tray of fruit that set me off first. Oddly enough, commercials for sweets don’t bother me. And fast food commercials still gross me out.


I am so very tempted to cheat.

That turkey doth call to me.

The weird part is that yesterday was relatively easy, and I thought I was through the hardest part. I almost felt normal yesterday. Energy was low, but no headaches, no hunger pangs. The day went by in a dreamy, almost meditative state. Today, though, I couldn’t even hold lunch until noon, when I had been holding off until past 1pm for the first three days.


I wish this was the last day. I am also extremely thankful that I can revert back to a full, nutritious diet.
