This is week three of my attempt at the one day fast.
Although strictly speaking, what I'm doing is probably not considered fasting.
I'm not eating food but I am drinking smoothies and fresh juices like these.
And of course I'm still having coffee, and yes a Red Bull and you know what - its still so hard.
Every time I've done it, I end up like this, anxiously waiting until 12 when I can finally eat something.
And daydreaming about what it will be - a bowl of Just Right with Golden Grahams? A grilled cheese sand-which? A couple of pancakes?
So why am I doing it? Partly, because giving your body a break from food for a at least 24 hours seems like a good thing, but also, for a selfish reason. Anthony Robbins talks about how people need to start from a place of abundance - this can be hard to do when you're surrounded by the more you feel you need to get or earn. One day of denying yourself some food and you realize just how abundant you really are.
20 more minutes to go....
