WELL.... I'm delighted
I have struggled for about 2 years, trying to lose and gradually gaining. WELL....
God and I had a chat and Holy Week is probably the most important holiday in my life, thinking about Jesus and that he died so I could spend eternity with him.
So, after doing EVERYTHING wrong since the beginning of the year, I had a memory of several years ago when I fasted Holy Week, so I said "I did it before and didn't feel bad, think I need to do it again." So after working 11-7 Sat night, I ate breakfast and a huge DQ Blizzard (hadn't had one in years) knowing that when I woke up I was going to fast all week.
Here it is Thursday and I have not eaten since Sunday at about 11am when I went to sleep. AND the crazy thing, is that I feel better than I have for months.
I want to spend time in the Bible and obviously lose weight at the same time, thanking God for the courage to persist. And so far, it's been AMAZING... I have to work 11-7 Friday and Saturday night so that might be a challenge, but I want to rejoice Easter Sunday with the Lord over His protection, His grace, and His love -- not sure when I will eat again, but I'll be going to 23:1 with OMAD. Now, I know I can do that because of my fasting this week. I'll update you as we move along.
