Re: Day 21 of 40 day Water Fast

I am a newbie at water fasting.  I jumped in head first.  I have read if you make it to 21 one days you will reap benefits.  If you go over, then will achieve the best results.  I am not sure how many days you can really go.  That is a very good question. 

I am doing a 35 day water fast.  Tomorrow will be my first week into the fast.  I feel motivated by God.  He is keeping me full with his spirit.  I feel so good.  My husband said I have not screamed as much.    I have to admit I was feeling depressed and angry before the fast.  Now I feel I truly have inner peace.  I feel calm, relaxed, and motivated.  My weight is gradually being lifted off.  God heard my prayer to lose weight.  He led me to this and he is taking me all the way.  

I am so tired of being overweight.  Since I have lost some weight I am no longer considered obese.  I will never allow myself to fall in such state of health and mental being ever again!  I want to be healthy.  I want to feel confident with who I am.
