Hi!
I am a chronically suffering food addict, and I am undertaking, after a background of only attempting short fasts, a ten-day fast, which I began yesterday. So I am nearly complete with day one. It has been really hard for me to get into the mental place of being determined to actually take a longer fast. I think longer fasts are what I need. I am blogging my ten-day fast here on Curezone, under the name "Lauray's 10-Day Fast." I am writing you to express my appreciation of people who undertake long-term fasts. I find reading their accounts of experiences (the more physical and specific, the better) REALLY helps me with what I struggle with -- my fears and culturally-learned negativities about fasting. I have a tendency to panic and break fasts. I do not want to do that any more. Please keep posting. I am about to read your posts from later days of the fast and can hardly wait! Please write me at sdpjune2005@hotmail.com if you would like to correspond!
