I've decided to start ending the fast. Not because I can't handle it anymore, but because my body has seemed to detox so well that my "toxic" white, chalky tongue is flushing back to it's pink normal state and I'm craving really healthy foods (i.e. cucumber sandwiches and a myriad of teas). Also, I've lost 7 pounds and the enamel on my teeth is starting to thin. I think it's time to be smart. I've fasted for a complete 7 days - and with coming off the detox, it'll be another 2 or 3. So, why reach this weird obligatory 10-day mark when I'm accomplished what I already wanted to?
Coming off the fast correctly will be very important now. I must only drink freshly squeezed orange juice for today. I will have vegetable soup tonight. Only about a half cup though. I am planning on having some soup tonight at a Thai restaurant. They make great soups. The Essex Market (right by my apt) will prove to be very beneficial to me - it's like an indoor farmer's market. I've already stocked up on some OJ from them. That's where I'll be buying my veggie soup, too.
Wish me luck with the re-toxing. You guys are rad.

PS. Thanks to Mega who sent me a rad gift during my fast. It made me smile and kept my thoughts off of how hungry I was.
