::day 3::

Today is my third day of water fasting and I really want some coffee or green tea. The first two days were relatively easy and I even exercised, but today I am feeling it. My whole body is achy, I am tired, my tongue has a white coating on it, and I have a headache. I doubt I will be able to exercise today. I am wondering if I need to switch to broth/tea/water fasting rather than just water fasting. Or maybe do 2 days with broth/juice and then 2 days with just water.

::SIBO::

I finished a 7-day course of Xifaxan (an antibiotic used for the treatment of SIBO - Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth) along with an antifungal and it has done absolutely nothing for me. I still look like I am 3 months pregnant when I wake up and I look about 6 to 7 months pregnant after I eat and feel absolutely miserable.

My next step - I think - will be a 14 day water fast. I really don't know what else to try.
