Day 4

Today was the first day I experienced the fast while at work. I thought it would be hard at work before I started (hence why I worked from home last week), but it was actually one of the easiest days. The fact that I was working and talking with coworkers made the day go by much quicker.

The temperature has also decreased significantly since the weekend and I'm in a climate controlled office the whole day, which certainly helps. I don't know if I'm hydrating enough, but I'm certainly not feeling it as I was over the weekend. In fact I'm not as tired as I was and I think my nights have been pretty restful.

Thus far the items we have bought for the fast have included:

55 lemons (15 initially, 10 later, and then 30 which we are still using)
9.5 gallons of water (of which we have finished 2 and are working on the next 2.5)
64 oz of syrup (we had about 8 oz left at home and have finished one 32 oz bottle so far)

My dad asked me what I do at work during lunch and I thought nothing that different from my regular lunch. I still poke around news sites, read, and find interesting things to blog about. The main difference is that I have to contend with the smells in the office.

General energy level: better than average
General mood: good
