I'd never been on a dietary fast until 3 days ago. Jenn and I fasted for two days for dietary reasons as opposed to spirtual reasons. Whatever the case, I did feel like something shifted congnitively for us. First, you begin to understand your relationship with food. I found that I use food to soothe me. With the food gone, I was left to deal with my true feelings. I found myself turning inward to soothe myself and also went to Jenn more. The first day of our fast (Sunday) was the best day we've had since the reveal date (Feb 10th).
Monday was more difficult because we both had massive headaches (probably caffeine withdrawal) and body aches. But, what happened Monday is that I felt this deep resolve to fight for my life. It was like my head was clear for once in a long time. Instead of seeing obstacles in my way, I sensed a resolve to see the goal and not pay much attention to the obstacles.
This all may sound strange, and yes, I'm fairly strange...I admit it. But, I'm going to fast more often and I wonder if any of you would like to join me for a 1 day fast next week. Then we can discuss what, if anything has changed for us.
