Fasting, slowing, springing, falling

It's spring. Really, according to the calendar and the weather. Not too shabby for Vermont. Time to get moving again. I've decided to jumpstart my spring with a fast. Drinking juice now, but will cease and desist when my precious supply runs out. I am a self-proclaimed food addict. This is HARD. No joke, I'll be meditating and suddenly the thought of a pizza pops into my mind. It's obviously an obsession--one I am trying to break. But food is so good!! Coffee, too. Another little addiction of mine. Probably a result of 3.5 years wearing the green apron. I suppose there are worse things to be addicted to. This is day three. Day one was wrought with hunger pains and a slight caffeine headache. Day two--not hungry at all--MAJOR caffeine headache. Last night I enjoyed an amazing surge of energy that has carried into today. No headaches, not hungry. But I want to eat for the sake of eating. Like I'm addicted to the action of chewing and swallowing. They say that eating disorders are a result of a person trying to gain control over a life they have no control of. I think this is similar, but coming from a more spiritual side, rather than self-destructive motivations. I'm hoping that (as all the books say), I will start feeling very clear-headed and inspired/creative, etc. I don't want to stop until I go a little loopy.
