Day 3 Son of DDDY Challenge: Salt Uptick, Water Uptick, But Peeing Less!

Scale: 247.8

I had a lot of salt last night (the salt I put on my salad, lots of coarse on the tomatoes, and the WonderSlimTaco Cheese Puffs ). I was craving salt like man, which is one reason I skipped dressing on my salad and went with salt. Why use up fat calories when what I wanted was SALT!?

I should be 247.4 today. I'm 247.8 cause I salted up. And I didn't poo this AM. I normally poo w/in 5 minutes of being awake. I think the low roughage supper and saltiness and chocolate (first time I had real chocolate in a bit) conspired to plug me up a tad.

Now, my water and calories were great yesterday. Well under limit of calories and well over the accelerated level of water intake. So, I'm very proud of meself. :)

Interestingly, my bladder must have expanded or my body is acclimating. I wasn't running to pee every 20-25 mins. It was more like every 45-50. ; )

I have some nice produce after my co-op pick-up yesterday (though my most desired sugar seckel pears are not ripe, yet, darnit), so I should get my poop on well tomorrow. :D

I'm running much less often to the restroom this afternoon too, Princess. I think we are getting nearer to the "breakthrough point" - where our bodies adjust to the regular, consister volume of liquids.

Good job on the calories and fluids! Keep up the good work!!

The Magnesium Citrate works well! Thanks for the tip. I feel so much better today. I pooped up a freaking storm today. It was awesome.

Just kidding - I really love it all!

I, too, was craving salt like crazy today! I think it must be all the water we are drinking flushing out all the stored salt. My bladder is also getting used to the water. YAY for our awesome bodies! lol :)
