These photos are of moonset over the cove by my house. Pre dawn from my porch. I'm still fasting. I set out on a 5 day fast. The first 3 days were a little rocky, but now I'm doing great, so I'm not going to stop until I see a reason to. I've got 50+lbs of fat onboard to feed on! If anybody knows why my photos are uploading sideways, please help me out. The shutter was slow, so I got that cool zigzag image by moving. Happy day, y'all!

If you plan to go on an very long fast, get some Biotin so your hair and nails will stay healthy. Voice of experience here. I ended a 58-day total fast at the end of June, and my hair fell out for 2-3 months. My nails still chip and peel, but they're getting better. Best wishes to you! There are lots of good benefits from fasting.

Buenita: thank you. I also feel nervous leading up to it, but once I get started, after a day or two, it gets easy, because, handled right, your hunger just goes away. Daughter of the King: you are right, it is a sacred time ~ I feel ever more like a Daughter of the King myself. May this light shine brighter for all of us! Liv: Aliens? Only if the moon and my Apple phone are aliens. The picture is pretty amusing, right? Debbie: I remember that and I've experience it before myself. I'm taking supplements and I'm planning to fast for no longer that 2 weeks at a time and cycle in and out, so that my body can adjust. I'll look into Biotin; thank you for the suggestion. @Trackin64: Hello my friend, long time no see, Thank you all for the support!

Whenever I had fasted like that for days, it’s always the first three days that are hardest, then it’s a breeze for some reason, you would think it would get harder.🙃
The only thing that’s scary about fasting like that is making sure your digestive system doesn’t get screwed up. Mine never did till 2 years ago, for health reasons I didn’t eat for a month, but the horrors of getting the digestive system going again. Ahhhh! Just be careful and good luck.👍👏👏
