Water Fast Starting 11/20/09 Buddies/Encouragement Wanted

(Billings, MT)

I'm going to (really) attempt a water fast tomorrow. And as in the title, I would love to have any support/comments/etc. Even if you happen to pass by the page, a good luck would mean a lot! I'm aiming for 10 days.

Soo a little about me (okay maybe a lot). I am 18 years old, a senior in high school. Girl. Love joking around. Positive. Only I secretly hate my weight. I am 130-140 lbs and pretty short (5'2 ish) (too scared to weigh myself).

I know I am not exactly in 'super morbidly obese range' but I'm not exactly thin. (mind you, I am pretty much chest less) and when most girls (teenagers) at my school and thin and good looking, it is hard.

I am not comfortable with myself and i have no confidence. I want to lose weight so I can be myself again (whenever the last time that was), and I want to fast so I can start over with my body (have it be cleaned, all the benefits, etc)

My longest fast has been 6 days in like July or August of this year. Since then I haven't been able to fast successfully. I'm hoping that maybe with some support I can finally reach my (dream) goal of 10 days. I don't like the dizziness but I can handle it.

It's the bad breath that really bugs me. So I am going to eat a few pomegrante seeds (when I work I.E. I work with customers) to handle that. Which i think is fine, it won't be as pure as a water fast, but (i think) pretty dang close.

Another obstacle will be avoiding my parents. And I will not tell them because they would not understand (i.e. not supportive)

Thanks sooo much (esp if you read all that!)
Whomever was listening/reading, thank you!!

Please leave a comment or..something.


It really does mean A LOT
