Hey. My name is Karen
I live in Canada. I’m starting my 5 day fast @ 9pm on Sunday October 27. I’m fasting for many reasons. To heal my inflammation. My C reactive protein is so high…might be because of the obesity so I want to lose more weight as well. Longest I ever fasted was 60 hours but I know I can do this and it’s the perfect time to avoid any temptations. We got this. Got my water, redmond salt, potasium and ACV all prepared in case I need it. Will be walking every morning for 20-30 minutes as well and take some sun.

Congratulations on joining the group. I also do a daily morning 1 to 2 mile walk that also serves as my meditation time.
So today was a great day. First 24h usualy is. Even if work was frustrating, did not bother me. BUT…I realized tonight how much my mom is a trigger for my eating. I went to visit, kissed her and huged my dad when I was leaving and she said that my dad looked like a kid next to me (cause my dad lost 60 poinds) I felt like shit. I got in my car and realized that I wanted to eat. BUT…I had this phrase in my head: I will have all my life to eat. And I was able to process the feelings that my mom’s words made me feel, I was able to forgive her for not knowing better and I was over it. Came home and had a tea. So proud!
