1. Well, you read it in the title. I'm at it again. Today's day one of a 3 to 5 day fast. I ate yesterday to break the previous three and a half day fast.

2. ood news to report - I fit into my jeans!

Well, they're my big sized jeans and they're snug on the tummy when I sit down and lean foward, but in general, they fit and feel great - when I'm standing or sitting normally, they look like the right size - not too snug. It's only when I lean forward when sitting (like, to type this) that they feel snug on the upper tummy area.

I hadn't been able to wear them for a year. Literally, I wasn't able to get them above my lower thigh for one year. And then today I tried them on in a "it's chilly, I'm so sick of not fitting in my jeans, can I force myself into them and then stretch them out" moment. Well, I was SHOCKED to not only fit into them, but to be able to button them without having to suck the gut in (you know what I mean).

THEY TOTALLY FIT!!!!

Ok, so it's enough encouragement (without a scale) to go into my fourth cycle with a fast today - one day early.
