68 hours, & still counting, into Gods Hunger Strike. Just short of completing my 4th day. Even tho I didnt officially start the strike until Thursday, the last time I consumed regular food was Wednesday about 8:30 p.m. & I now use that day/time as starting point. Stomach has shouted at me a few times, but still have no burning desire to go out & get pizza, burger or even a salad. Due to my sensory issues, Its very difficult for me to drink only filtered or tap water. Yesterday, I started adding sugar free powdered flavoring to water, to make it more inviting to remain hydrated. Hope to get Gaterade or electrolyte water additive (Mio) tomorrow. Did drink 8 oz. of country-style orange juice purchased before going on strike. The juice provided only detectable calories so far. Have been staying real busy to help days pass. Yesterday, I spent almost 4 hrs working on space shuttle painting, then began (re)painting 5 - 2x3.5 mini canvases with abstract images; I previously tried to paint with Sharpee markers. Last night, I went thru file drawers to purge & shred unneeded docs & files. Seems like the hardest part of day is between 1:30-4:30 a.m. when I force myself to get into bed. Still working on that part. Today is Sunday, the Lords day, so after showering, encouraging friend on phone, & letting cats out for fresh air, I immediately got on Twitter to do a mass blitz asking people to review yesterdays CBS post that I shared here; asking them to retweet. Have been back in apt.
