Thanks for the kind words Willa.

As far as physical activity goes, I've sort of intentionally maxed it out at walking. My walk is a long one, yesterday and today I did about 14 miles total, but it is still walking. The fact is though , I feel exactly the same. For me the worst was the first two days. By day three I have really felt the same. Believe me, I'm hungry, but I'm in a bit of a groove now, so I just deal with it.

I'd say if you were to try again, my suggestions would be (and I'm no expert, just some thoughts), start when you are off from work for day one, two and maybe three, and also to take longer to pre fast. Physically, I don't think it did much to prepare me, but mentally, I was really ready and commited.

Best,
Reek
