Day 28 Restless, Tempted, Sore and Distracted

Up at 9:00 a.m. - 11 hours of sleep. weight - 172 lbs. I did it. I was able to gain a pound today. All that protein yesterday helped. 12:45 p.m. Went to channel 8 for Children's Therapy Center telethon. Another optimist and I presented a giant check on the air. Also did an interview about Push-ups for Peace. They interviewed me with an eleven year old girl named Mikayla, from the therapy center, who said to me before we went on the air "Don't mess up , I don't need the bad publicity." She was really funny. 3:00 p.m. - Went home. Today is a water day and for some reason especially difficult. It's been four weeks and 25 pounds ago since I've eaten and I'm finding myself wanting to chew on something. I ended up chewing on some cauliflower, broccoli and carrot and spitting it out over the sink disposal. It was not that satisfying but it did give me some kind of relief. I found myself wondering why I'm even doing this(the fast). The rest of the evening I spent reading and drinking water. Funny how I felt so physically strong yesterday and not so mentally strong today. I'm sure I'll get my head together tomorrow as I'll be busy again. Looking forward to tomorrow and hope the soreness will be gone from my shoulders.
