Fasting rocket ๐Ÿš€ Grace

Restarting day1

My mind was telling me, you need to eat, it will be so good, so tasty, just what u need

After eating I feel full. Full of regret because I donโ€™t feel any better. Sabotaging your fast only has feelings of regret with eating. Because nothing is new. Please, if u have cravings, The same old food, youโ€™ve eaten before. You will still feel hungry on another day. Know it is not hunger, it is cravings because right now, I am so full, and I feel no differences, to be honest. If I had continued with my fast, Iโ€™d be going to 24hrs at midnight of Tuesday? 18th Feb.

I am absolutely certain after all of this that the body is absolutely fine, and that the mind is playing tricks. I feel full, and so unfulfilled. This will be the same feeling each time because deep down, I know Iโ€™m doing myself injustice by not recovering weightloss and attaining my ultimate goal. No need to feel miserable when youโ€™ve not eaten, because itโ€™s your mind that you need to remember to silence. Remind yourself that there is no pleasure in that cinnamon slice, chips, cracker with butter corned beef stew or chicken soup and rice. Greediness and thinking you need to eat so I can start at midnight continuously will really keep you from maximizing the day. Each day you put it off. That is a day of confidence and doing the things you are destined to do not being utilized. I am fasting by the almighty grace of God. So help me God.

Well, by golly, you nailed it on the head! Now, you have to put into practice what you already know. If nothing changes, nothing changes!:hugs:

Extremely bad headache. At 20hours I had to really push through. Iโ€™m now at 25hours. I have to sleep. Withdrawals are real. Thank you God for getting me through.

I am now 51 hours in now. It has not been easy, but each time I have had a craving Iโ€™ve thought about my initial post. All the food I crave, is apart of the habitual eating and indiscipline which the mind wants to desperately drift back to. I thank God for strengthening me through today. I cooked for family, had no headaches. I slept a lot, but relatively u felt better. Iโ€™m really grateful that I was able to do a no2 also. Thank God, for getting me through today. Iโ€™m learning that itโ€™s extremely important to know the root cause of mind tricks, so you donโ€™t succumb to them.

I believe the temptation you experience will be within your power to overcome, but it will be closely matched. If you are trying to develop your mind, you need resistence, just as if you need resistence to develope your muscles. God will not give you more than you can handle. You may be surprised at how much you can handle!:rose:

Amen and amen. God bless u. I hope your fasting is going well?

I was feeling the hollow, empty feeling from not eating. I am now at the 72 hour mark. I know the feeling I had was the cravings related to habitual, undisciplined structure of eating Iโ€™m used to. I have to keep telling myself that progression is necessary, being overweight is not an option. Pain is temporary, quitting lasts forever. Habit . Take H off, becomes a bit, take a off becomes bit and take b off it becomes it. I must keep pushing through. Day by day the Lord is keeping me. Fat is fuel. Fat in my body is energy. Thank you Jesus for giving me willpower to overcome food temptations.
