fast for 3 days

Someone indirectly connected to me will be executed on Tuesday evening. I plan to fast today, tomorrow and the entirety of Tuesday in honor of this man and as a stance against the death penalty. I am not doing this publicly, just for myself.
I know this is going to be hard, but I know for a fact that I can do it.

I’m settling down in this new city. I really want to give up food to show God that I don’t rely on my energy and strength but on His. His strength to comfort, protect, shield, provide, favor, and use me as His blessing. I want to tell Him that I need His strength and that I’m giving up mine for 3 days… Starting October 4th, 2009 tomorrow Sunday

well since its 12:13 at the time, i started yesterday
today:if i felt alittle hungry or thought about food, i would chug 3 glasses of ice water and i would feel so full.not really tired.

cant wait for day 2 and 3 and possibly going for more days.

Starting tomorrow if all goes well i won’t be tempted by food lol
But this should be funn lol :)

starting today :)

I really really want to do the fast because I hear so many good things about it. I guess after awhile your body starts digesting the bad cells in your body (so that’s why you feel crappy) but then after your body is clean and healthy! It’s just so freaking hard! Even when I know all the good things it’s doing. I get really excited about it but then as soon as I get hungry I’m like “Uh… I can’t do this.” I just give up too quickly I guess. Tomorrow no eating!!!

Before:

This isn’t just a fast of food. It’s a fast of everything that I desire, own, and take for granted. It will be 3 days only water and meditation. Throughout most of the exercise I will be wearing a blindfold and not speaking unless I have to.

After:

I was relaxed and felt brand new. I did begin eating, but I was more conscientious. I didn’t binge like I thought I would. I gave up talking for three days and I wore a blindfold the majority of the time. I realized my purpose in life during the whole process.

Now, I spend 15 hours of my day working toward my ultimate goal.

I generally have a lot of people living at my house, but not my step mothers brother and his daughter moved in so everything is always chaos and the focus is almost never on me. They don’t even ask me to come down to eat. The only problem is what do I say when I am at my boyfriends house? He knows I love sweets and snacks.. That is truly the obstacle for me.

Going to truly start now.
11:07pm.

I was doing good until about 7 pm, I forgot, I wasn’t even hungry but I had sample chocolate from this candy flace.. Then you know when you don’t eat & you start eating & you just get really hungry & want to eat more.. THAT HAPPENED. I SUCK AT LIFE. Seriously! I will try again though, soon I will :D

i’ve always wanted to try it, but i’m going to take smaller steps and practice for a day, first just tomorrow, cause i might go out to lunch saturday, and maybe i’ll start sunday then? :D
