Walking Tragedy

This week I have taken it upon myself to starve. It is now Wednesday and although I haven't eaten anything since Monday dinner time, I have started eating again. This is because I shouldn't have started at the beginning of the week, because I was close to fainting as I walked down my street for my bus this morning (which, incidentally, I missed). The strange thing about starving myself is that there is no yearning to eat. At no point did I think "Oh god, I need food NOW!". I was just able to go without it.

Effects of a lack of food after 1½ days:


  • blurred vision
  • exhaustion
  • morning headaches
  • thinking patterns disrupted
  • waking up earlier
  • joint, bone and muscular fatigue and pain
  • Stomach pain
So the plan is to pig myself out today, and then begin again tomorrow. Hopefully it should carry through to the weekend. I'm not sure what I stand to achieve by doing this. It's kind of a way of making myself feel better after a really rough time I'm going through. I'll update this page as my quest continues.
