You float like a feather... In a beautiful world... (8)

Day One of liquid fasting.

I haven't planned how long I'm going to do it for.
I'm not going to aim for a week, and maybe not get there, and end up feeling a failure.
I'm not going to deny myself even a crumb until the scales reach one exact number.
I'm just not going to go with it.
After all, that's how I did it the last time.
No careful planning. No calorie calculating. No obsessing.
It just went.
And it's going to happen again.
They're going to go. All those little lbs I hate, adding up to one big reason not to love me.
I want to love me. I want to be happy. Completely happy.
And as self-obsessed and self-absorbed and materialistic, even, as this may be, I just can't find complete happiness without losing something else. And that just happens to be a little weight.
Ok, more than a little. About a quarter of my body weight.
But that's just one insignificant detail in a world full of so many things that matter so much more.
So I won't think about it.
At least, I'll try my best...
And as for keeping a food diary (it's going to be a drink diary now)... well that's just a matter of habit.

So far today...
Black coffee - 0 cals
Diet lemonade - 6 cals
Diet hot chocolate - 37 cals
Half a cup of soup - (less than) 100 cals
