A FAST lesson from fasting.

I have to admit it takes a STRONG willed person to fast. Every day for a month? That is incredible. Although I made it from sun up to sun down without food or water (or other beverages) I thought about food all day long. I became super thirsty, and the more I tried not to think of these things, the more I thought about them. By 4:00 pm I wasn't AS hungry, but I started getting a little giddy. Who knows if it was the fasting or not. By the time 5:00 pm hit and it was officially sun down I made sure I ate like a queen, but sticking to rule, I did not binge.
Wow. It was a hard challenge and I admit I hated every minute of this one. I understood the reasons however and I definitely gained a ton more respect for those who practice this on a regular basis.
