Apple fast update: Day 1 went fine. Got pretty sick up apples by noon, and was hungry for the rest of the day. Ended up eating 10 apples total for the day. Only other thing consumed was water. No change in how I felt by the end the day, but none expect. Currently halfway through Day 2. Still sick of apples, but feel over the mental hump of fasting. Supposedly the second day is the worst, as all the toxins being released causes headaches and generally grouchiness. I do indeed have a headache, but am in a fairly good mood. The headache could actually be from no coffee in two days, but probably a combination of both. Apple hangover.
Some improvement in how I feel. My foot didn't hurt as bad when I got out of bed this morning, and I noticed around 11AM that my hip/SI pain has magically disappeared. This is a good sign. Neck is about the same. I look forward to more apples. Postedit: just did Pettibon exercises, and it's very noticeable how much looser my lower and mid back are. I mean, I haven't had this much range of motion in months. The only thing that could be throwing up my assessment is that I've been lifting things all morning for our yard sale, plus pulling some weeks, so perhaps my back is just extra "warmed up". But I doubt it.
