Mom of Three Fasting for Weight Loss & Spirituality - Friends Wanted!

I just wanted to say hi to everyone here. I just started my fast and I am on cloud nine. Primarily, I am doing this for spiritual reasons and achieving optimum health and more control over how and what I eat.

I am a mom of 3 little ones...I have two in elementary school and one baby. So I need the energy to keep up with them and since giving birth, my weight has skyrocketed. So I feel like now, more than ever, I need to gain some level of self control, for myself and my children.

I've been keeping a fasting journal, doing my morning bible study, prayer and devotionals and keeping track of my weight daily. My goal is to juice/water fast for a minimum of two weeks. Right now, I am on cloud nine.

I have been drinking acai juice and cranberry juice as well as drinking water and oolong tea --- which has kept me hunger free and given me the strength to continue on past all the morning biscuits for breakfast and other unhealthy habits.

This is time for me to focus, rejuvenate and get myself together and I am so happy that I just took the first step into this. I am inspired by this website and all of the information as well.

I am always interested in making new friends and fasting partners, so please email me at makingtimeforme@gmail.com. I will respond.
