To fast - to fury us?

29 Feels Hungry

A friend of mine asked me today how my birthday was. Seeing as my birthday was just a few days ago, this was by no means an odd query.

I told him, "29 Feels Hungry" and so it does as I sprint past the first 24 hours of my fast. OK...Maybe not a sprint, but there is some sort of movement forward.

I thought since I am about 24 hours into my stupidity, I might as well look up on the internet how to correctly do a water fast...and little did I know, there seems to be a water vs. juice-fast debate that has been raging for centuries. It seems most of the modern perception is that a water-fast is "idiotic" and that "only a complete moron would try this." P-shaw! Scientific Evidence, Smientific Smevidence.

So although I could be doing a juice diet...I have chosen water. It seems harder and more of an accomplishment anyway. I am interested what I find out about myself through this endeavor.

Initially, I have discovered that I enjoy food.

  • Dear Hungry Hungry Marky:

    Maybe you should find a nice middle-of-the-road stance on food - somewhere between fasting and eating a whole bag of tater tots in one sitting. =D

    BTW, I hear the hunger pains go away after 72 hours - ha! ;- )

  • Ok guys, there is such a thing called the Lemonade Diet which contains real lemons, cayenne pepper, real grade A maple syrup and water all in specific quantities. When I locate the website again I will post it for you, so you can read up on it. Its a liquid diet so when you decide to do the fast thing again you'll have an alternative to water....if you do decide to do it again. :) Love, Big Sis
