My Mother wants me to gain some weight.
I just finished talking to my Mother on the phone. She says I'm getting too thin, and need to gain some weight. Last Sunday (one week ago) we had a small family reunion at her apartment.
I didn't dare tell her that I'll soon be going on a long Water Fast, and will be losing more weight....much more.
I'm on a short 3-day Fast now, and will probably postpone my long Fast until after I see my mother (and family) again on January 9, 2011 (we meet monthly).
I hate to 'hide' from my family, but don't know what else to do. None of them understand Water Fasting, and all the benefits that can be obtained....mental health, as well as physical.
One solution would be to wear baggy clothes. I could call-in sick that day. Does anyone here have another idea?.....WY
P.S. I'm feeling good about this short 3-day fast, even though I won't be experiencing Autolysis (or self-digestion).
P.P.S. I'm 5'8" and weigh 130 lbs.
