Day 20 at the Kushi Institute

Today is my third day on the fast.  I feel a lot better today than yesterday and I was able to work without any problem.  I am really concentrating on chewing each bite 50 times and it is making me reflect on my food.  I loose count when somebody asks me something or I try to interject something into a conversation and then I can't remeber what number I am on, but I am learning what it is like to really masticate my food before swallowing and to put my fork down in between bites.  I talked to one of the counselors and he has advised me that since I am back to my old weight plus I have lost a little bit more I should add miso soup in the morning along with some of the greens.  He says it will have the same effect so I will start doing that tomorrow because my ex-sister-in-law is coming to visit me on Saturday and I am going to her house so I don't want to just binge and get sick.  All the bloating and distention that I was having is gone and I my bowels have gotten more regular now they are little on the loose side. 
Last night I wached a foreign movie on my computer call "Monsoon Wedding"  It was a cute movie that takes place in India and all the hoopla that goes into getting a daughter married in India.  My husband says that I enjoyed it because I got to see all the food and see people celebrating since I have not been doing that here.  I guess I got transported for night to another place and time.  If you like foreign films I would check it out it was fun.
