History of fasting.

Thirty six hour fasting is familiar. In 2018 and 2019 I do not recall fasting. This April I am on my second fast.

I found one of many journals where I had documented over twenty fasts.

It is mostly a mental exercise. Chewing a portion of a stick of gum or drinking a can of seltizer could be called cheating. Breaking of the fast is key to capture the small weight loss.

Why fast? For me it is to empty my stomach and to dig into stored energy.
