I’ve been trying to fast for more than 36 hours for a while now without suffering. I’ve done up to 60 hours but it was HELL. Today I hit 48 hours and I can’t believe how nice and easy it was. I have temptations ALLLLLL day but I have that little voice in my head saying ya it looks and smells good, allow myself to register and taste it and cintinu with a whisper : my body is feasting right now and if I want to eat something I tell myself I HAVE MY WHOLE LIFE TO EAT THIS. Not today Devil, not for the next 5 days. Then I will evaluate. Funny how Sunday night I was bargaining with myself on 72 hours. Then yesterday I told myself well I could refeed and do another 48. Then today I was like NO Karen, you are doing this, 5days because my parents like to go have breakfast on the weekend and I would be able to eat. Now, after watching Yasmine, I want to go 14 days. LOL. I’m just going to have a coffee or green tea at that breakfast (yes I’m allowing myself coffee and tea) and tell them I’m not hungry. Only one friend knows I’m doing this fast and I love keeping it to myself and not having any negativity. Thank you so much for writting in your journals, so encouraging to see that we are not aline and 600 strong

Arya of Game of Thrones is my inspiration during tough situations. “Not Today!”
