Today was my first fast day. I've been a little apprehensive about it as I haven't had to go on this much less food since I was in the Army. Anyway, I had a hard boiled egg for breakfast, a glass of unsweetened apple juice and a slice of bread. The funny thing is, I was hungry when I woke up this morning. That NEVER happens! I think my body and mind are trying to tell me something. I think for my next fast day I'll have a solid fruit, such as an orange or grapes, and take my pills with water.
Went through lunch time OK. No food but some chilled water. Sat at the table while my wife ate. It did increase my hunger, but nothing that I couldn't handle. After lunch did some reading and met with my wife. Hunger still under control.
Supper consisted of 20 baby carrots, 25 grapes and a yogurt. I was hungry during the afternoon leading up to supper, but no pains. Felt pretty well filled after supper. No real problems before bedtime and was able to sleep OK, so it looks like this plan will work for me.
I actually felt pretty good until I attended the church meetings in the evening. I swear this church is trying to kill itself. I'm outvoted on every issue, so what will happen will happen.
