The throbbing, pounding in my head, Has driven me back to my bed. Ice packs placed around my crown, ~ This headache's got me feeling down. I'm seeing stars before my eyes, From my lips come mournful sighs. I'm not a stoic ~ I can't take pain, This migraine's driving me insane! My lack of food has brought this on. ~ Surely fasting must be wrong! It's good to cleanse ~ I do agree, But this fast is killing me! A drop of pin brings blast of pain, To this tortured, burning brain. I want my room pitch dark and quiet, ~ No light, no sound ~ I'm on a diet!

Nancy ~ My one day fast is over! Now it's chow time! lol Seriously, fasting is the pits but I do believe it is a good way to periodically detoxify. I wasn't actually starving myself. I had my Jack Lalanne Power Juicer on the go making fresh juices but I did not eat any solids. I drank 10 glasses of water to wash away any impurities in my system. I had a sensible breakfast to "break" my "fast" and I feel great and the headache has gone! Have a great day! Mine will be ~ now that I'm back on real food! lol Linda |

Sparkling Susan ~ I am happy to report to you that I have ~ and am back to the land of the living! lol I could never handle a complete fast, but what I do is enough for me! I a disciplined but I'm not that disciplined! Enjoy your day! It's raining here ~ but it is still a lovely day! A quiet, reflective sort of day ~ a day for eating comfort food! lol Tsk, tsk! I jest! After a fast I always get back to eating more sensibly. Warm hugs 'n smiles, Linda |

Well now, Linda... I've fought migraines but this battle chosen bears too much pain! Now I remember why I gave them up. If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

Larry ~ There was a time in my life when I suffered horribly with headaches! ~ but then I got a divorce! And now I very seldom have a headache! ~ and that is usually because I have deprived myself of food! lol Linda |
