What an awesome awesome week I am having.

I have an accountability buddy in my office and we have had many many successful fasts this week, 25hrs Mon - Tue plenty of H2O and 1 cup of tea, Tue - Wed a 16 hr dry fast with a lunch and dinner, Wed - Thu repeat of prior day. Thu - Fri, currently in progress, coffee and water only until dinner.

It is national donut day and this junk food addict don't need no sticking donut (I questioned this for a brief moment when chocolate frosting touched my finger when taking one out of the bag to give mini me his. I didn't lick my finger else this journal entry would be quite different)

I am still sipping my large iced cold brew coffee with a splash of cream I bought 3 hrs back and it is only at the half way mark.

My fasting muscle, my brain, is getting stronger and more disciplined. I know this for certain because Thirtsty Thursdays is usually followed by oink oink Fridays. Nope, my pie hole is shut until dinner

For those who don't get fasting, it's ok. I got plenty of fuel (FAT) on my body and surrounding my organs that I have access to that I need to use up.

I am allergic to wheat/gluten. Sometimes, I still bake things for my family. I make them, so I can not eat them. It keeps me from licking my fingers! I think I miss that stuff , but it is like a distant memory now!

Super Ches! Also thank you for commenting on my journal post for today I greatly appreciate it :-) Ahhhh, I was wondering why a friend posted a chocolate iced donut and coffee drink on her FB page today, saying she got hers! I didn't even know it was donut day, who came up with that? Fortunately I never really got hooked on donuts but could have if I didn't have other taboo foods haunting me in the past! Your fast sounds interesting I might try that method next week to break up my stall fast regimen. Super you have support where you work, I have to tread this battle by myself BUT I'm pretty good company most of the time, lol.

Thanks Amanda, Tabgurl, JMA and GG. Whoot Whoot! 14 hrs 50 minutes into this fast. Still sipping the coffee I got 6 hrs 27 minutes ago (it's turned into coffee water now, lol) AND drum roll..... Survived Burger King Whopper meal purchased for my little one at 11 AM, ha, he's 19. I GOT THIS!

I am trying to get my brain around fasting, but its going to happen. I am on under 20 carb keto diet and doing pretty dang good

Thanks JoK. You can do it EASILY if you have been low carb for more than 3 days. Fasting is also awesome a breaking plateaus.

Hey From371to184, brotha from a another motha, I have 43 data points between April and May recorded on my phone via my Bluetooth scale vs only 6 entered on FS during the same period. I CAN HANDLE THE TRUTH.

Thanks momma and Schillgd. @Schillgd, every human being fasts and those who realize those how to harness the power of it, GET IT! Nice loss and keep fasting.

The best I've been able to do lately has been the 23 hour fasts between meals at the Senior Center. I thought this weekend would be a good test, but they gave me a sack of vegetables and a cup of chicken salad.

Thanks moogie and glen. It's a long road ahead but it's all apart of the journey.

I had to laugh about licking your fingers from the donut. If I liked my fingers, it would have hit my body with a jolt of sugar. I would then have to fight off a massive craving for food. The thing about drinking water is I don't get the 'hunger' signal. Fasting is not hard for me, what is hard for me is eating and then stopping :)
