i missed a day. that took less time than i thought it would. oh well. not going to make excuses. moving on. im just about through what will only end up bieng a 20 hour fast or so, shy of 24, which i try to do once a week. got things to do and cant leave the house on an empty stomach anxiety gets to bad, or the anxiety of getting anxiety.... you know. but 20 hrs is good. expecially when it doesnt seem hard. not physically, half way through workout last night i was fantasizing about scrambled eggs with veggies and cheese. ice cream with melted peanut butter crossed my mind, but the eggs were getting me way more excited. wierd how even if the body doest feel hungry, or lacking energy, the mind still craves the healthier option.
dont get me wrong, once the nutrition is in, the cravings go straight to the garbage food.
i have a person in my life that has tasked me with making decisions for them when they are unable to do so, but how do i know when they are unable? obviously if someone is in a coma or missing ona dessert island, i get it, they are physically unable to make decisions. but what if they are in front of you, talking, to me, to you, to anyone else around? where is the line between just making poor choices, and the lack of cognition to even be allowed to make a poor choice? as a person who has been granted decision making authorities in the simple stranded on a desserted island scenario, does that imply consent to be the judge of mental capacity in making rational decisions in our other scenario?
my mind craves nutrition when im hungry. my mind defaults to a healthy option in that example. i chose to drink alcohol and smoke cigarrettes for 10 years, my mind made a bad choice. for a long time. no one stepped in and said hey, your too stupid, no more decisions for you. how and what gives you or i the authority to stop, even legally, a person from making poor decisions?
