Anyway, our church started a 21 day fast Monday, so I'm still in the "hard" part. I felt like the Lord told me to give up meat and sweets. So I'm living on salads, bean soup, oatmeal, things like that. It's not too awfully, except I'm CRAVING chocolate, and I love desserts! After the first week, it will be easier.
I'm trying to stay away from all refined sugar and flour too. Basically eat much healthier. I've already lost about five pounds since Monday, so there will be those much needed advantages too.

While reading in Daniel on Dec 3th, God began to deal with me...it was about meat and sweets too!! I went 21 days and ended on Christmas eve with the Daniel's fast. I lost about 5lbs through Christmas season which was amazing for me as I love to bake and eat what I bake!!
Jan 5th, I started back on some what of a Daniel's fast.... only thing is I allow one serving of fish a day if I want...and also am eating Ezekial bread...
