The past week ended quite abruptly. I started having stomach cramps, the kind women would only understand, last Tuesday and it lasted for three days. It was only bearable during the first day. On the eve of the second day till early morning of the third day, it already became an effort for me to move or walk. That was my cue to call in sick yesterday.
I spent half of the day lying on the bed, crouched in a fetal position while cursing the cramps until it fully subsided. Silly me but the whole time I was in pain, I tried to eat anything on sight thinking it would satisfy the pain I mistook for hunger. I loaded up on chocolates and other treats that I normally ditch. These unusual cravings became uncontrollable and intense for a day. If I didn’t know any better, I would think this has something to with the pain I’ve felt.
Anyhow, I’m all good now and ready for another week at work. I’ll be trying out the 1 day detox tomorrow just to cleanse out my system. I’ve thought of doing the one week version but my chances are slim with dad arriving this week. He doesn’t approve of me skipping a meal, let alone for a day. I’ve missed his strictness this past month and now I’m just thrilled to see him in two days!
