Another headache this morning. Right behind my left eye. I am also having a devil of a time concentrating on work. I keep staring off into space and am having trouble thinking clearly. I am not sure I could say my own name properly.
I looked up online how long it takes to detox from caffeine, and the results were not encouraging. Apparently these headaches can persist for several weeks if said caffeine-giver-upper goes cold turkey. I thought that the influx of supernutrients entering my body would negate the effects of caffeine withdrawal, but it seems that instead my symptoms are magnified--compounded by the fact that I am also consuming remarkably less food, fat, and sugar than normal. This pain makes me want to sleep rather than eat. Which makes me hungry. Which makes me grouchy and in even more pain. It seems simpler, most of the time, to just eat and feel better.
I keep waiting and waiting to feel some sort of good feeling seeping in, but the only thing I have noticed so far is that my morning breath is marginally less potent. That being said, all the juice makes my teeth feel fuzzy.
Also, (I am going to share this because I feel it is pertinent to gauging my health) I thought (based on testimonials) that I would be, well, seriously expelling waste from my body throughout this process. But in truth, I have not gone to the bathroom for a full four days. The last time I had a poo was the last time I ate solid food. And that can't be right, can it? Am I just not consuming enough material? Is my body just absorbing everything I take in? Or did I start with just a naturally clean colon?
Either way, it feels weird. It just doesn't feel right. Everything about my body feels off right now, which is the exact opposite of what I expected it to be feeling like. Tomorrow's the hump, so we will see if things take a turn for the better by then.
