36 hour fast just completed

[Guest guest]

On Wednesday I began a 36 hour fast. This is a little different than I

expected because the last couple times I fasted for 36 hours I got

sick during the latter part, with vomiting and some dizziness. But

this time it was pretty much limited to a dull headache and a bitter

taste in my throat. I don't know if I had less toxins to get rid of

(like caffeine), or because the fasting, like dieting, packs less

punch every successive time, developing a resistance to detoxification

(I HOPE not). I started the fast at 10 Wednesday morning and broke it

at 10 Thursday night. That encompassed most of my first workday and

all of my second. It was hard because I was the one sent to pick up

cookies to celebrate a birthday. I'm surprized she trusted me after

seeing many times how I eat. I opened the window of my truck on the

way back thinking that it would keep me from smelling them and eating

them all before I got back with them. While people were enjoying the

cookies, I took my share of them and saved them for after fasting.

 

Is it my imagination, or were people around me constantly talking

about food over these last two days at work?

Benefits are cummulative. I've had fasting days where I've felt

wonderful. Your body knows exactly what to do. Great detoxing doesnt

take place in 36 hours because the colon is not even empty til about

the 3rd day. Longer a fast is usually the easier it gets as its the

gear changing thats the hardest so to speak not the sustaining of a

fasting state. Everyone does talk about food. Next to sex which isn't

talked about as much in public its most peoples most popular topic.
