Day 1: Here We Go!

Hello Everyone!

I am so happy I found this page. I'm 21 years old, and 5'1, 145lbs and so desperate to get rid of this weight AND feel better inside and out.

I did a juice fast in high school once and dropped a good amount of weight, but now I'm going for the water fast and hoping to make it to the 14-day mark with a minimum of 10 days. As we all know, not eating is really hard to begin with, especially when it comes to our cultures.

I come from a Mexican-American family and with it comes the traditional foods and the mothers, aunts and grandmothers asking the famous question, "Did you already eat, are you hungry?"

My family isn't very supportive of this so I need all the help and motivation I can get to not fall into temptation and eat my favorite foods. I'd love a Fasting Buddy or Buddies so we can help each other through this.

You can reach me via email at: monica_vill06@yahoo.com

I wish you all luck and strength!!!

Best Wishes,

Monica
