Day 5 – A Rebellion Within!

Having scrapped through toughest day of the plan, this day should have come as a relief. After all I got to eat meat, but surprisingly things didn’t get any easier. If Day 4 was more of stretching my physical capabilities, then on day 5 the battle was on the psychological front.

Started the day as usual with 4 glasses of warm water,
A beef patty with tomatoes, lettuce and cucumber for breakfast, with an espresso shot.
A beef patty with lot of tomatoes for lunch.
A glass of highly concentrated tomato juice (wish it was sulphuric acid...) in the evening.
A freshly made hamburger for dinner, which by the way was the day saver.

Battle Field Coverage !
My body teamed up with the evil part of my mind (should read rationale part...) and started questioning the whole logic behind this exercise. Then came, for the first time on the plan the inevitable question – “Does it worth it?” Though some research was done on the usefulness of the plan, I have to admit that the decision to (blindly) stick to the plan was an emotional one. So it was the deadly combo of an enraged body and an evil mind against a poor little emotion, which by the way was seriously beleaguered.

As the day grew, so did the rebellion inside and since ‘straying’ was not an option, the distance between the two factions widened alarmingly. Then came the ‘Hamburger’ moment for the dinner which brought some sort of parity between the revolting groups.

Though we are not one happy family at the moment, an interim truce has been reached.
Live today, fight tomorrow!

P.S. Do I even care about how vulnerable, I am ?
