Even though it was only 2 meals skipped it was still 24 hours and was quite hard to do. It took all my strength and really helped me to focus on God's strength. I am curious what your schedule would have looked like? I now fast almost weekly and it has become second nature. I wouldnt mind finding another schedule that would really put me in touch with God.

A fast is a fast, regardless of the reason! They say that fasting helps to speed up your metabolism.

I think I fasted many years ago, but that was because I had no money. When I first came out and started to work in the oilfield they did not pay until after the first month. I would pack a little food and hoped it would keep in the little cooler that I had, of course every week it would spoil by Wed. in the heat, so I would fast from Wed. until Fri. nite when I would go back to Fargo. The only thing I remember was being hungry. Tyson , what you have experienced is interesting. I think I fasted many years ago, but that was because I had no money.

Its still 24 hours but you are really only skipping 2 meals. Well in my case, 4 meals.
