 | Status of fasting
Last week was the first week since I started fasting where I had trouble going 24 hours. I didn’t write it down, but I believe I failed on both of my two scheduled days to complete the fast. Yesterday I completed a 2:00 PM (Sunday) to 2:00 PM (Monday) fast. It’s been about ten weeks since I started the twice a week schedule of fasting, and my back has improved (though the improvement has plateau’d), and my allergies have improved (as long as I don’t binge after ending a fast). On the down side, menopause is still horrible. ( I keep forgetting it is only pre-menopause. Oh! Ten more years of this!) Today I noticed that my jeans are getting baggy. I figured I would lose a pound or two, but I have not been weighing myself. Not being able to exercise has cautioned me away from bathroom scales. And then they broke, from rust, I think. |
