Fonty, or Chrisb have any advice? (As recommened by vx) =)

Hi vx =) I think that my reasoning behind the feeling urges to eat has been because of a living situation change. Where before I was living on my own, and wasn't influenced by anyone else cooking, being around, asking me to go places with them.. Now that I live with room mates I am finding it much harder. The smells being the worst, of cooking food.
I've found that when I get an 'urge' to fast, they will all be for different reasons leaving me encouragement to go on, with out a problem. This fast is different. I am doing it for no other reason other than its been a while. Other times fasted were because of problems with thinking/memory, carpel tunnel, to loose weight (sadly for a guy =0p), and because of ulcers, severe digestive problems. I can definitely tell the diffrence between this fast with out the lack of motivation, than the others- which is a totaly new fast in its own, i guess!!

ALSO, am fasting things that I feel I take advantage too much of, which one being the telephone, two my car, three hanging out with friends (Drinking, and going out), and four was the internet..mostly being myspace, and aim. (forums seem to be my only help and encouragement at this time, so i've made an acception) Incredibly all of these things have gotten me misfocused on work, and life in general- and hopefully will help me get back on track, instead of falling victum to this extremely lifestyle that i've accepted as comfort.

All of this together- No encouragement, and stressing out because of the lack of all of these things (Which what is the first thing many people think about when they stress out? Food?) Has made this fast especially hard for me. Another odd thing is that I've not fasted since i've turned Vegan- Strangely enough this fast has made me think about meat as well! I usually can't cant even stand the thoughts/smell of IMITATION meat let alone real animal bi products! Weird!?


Thank you very much for the informative info, and inspiration though!! I think that I'm going to try and wait it out- I don't want to have to refeed, and start a fast at day one again. I need to put some hours in at work afterall!! =0p
