Amen, God is good! He loves us all so much. So glad you are doing so well. I continue to pray for you. 

That’s a long fast🤕. Three days is more than enough! Maybe take shorter fasts more often 👍🏻 

Keep going! It's awesome that you are able to work that out! You are a great example. 

👍😊 

Does that mean you haven't eaten in 11 days or it's spread out over time? I hope it's the later. 

Excellent work! Let's go!  

You know to be careful with that fast, because the goal might health. But I am sure you have this! All the best.🌸 

@angie-leigh, for me, it is actually easier to do an extended fast than it is to do a 18-6 or 20-4. When I'm eating, I have a really hard time saying no to ANY food I want, and I struggle to keep the portion size manageable. I'm praying God will give me total control over these addictive behaviors. @LISfifty @Carol Vaquera and @buddy81755, thank you for your concern. I've been doing fasts very occasionally since I was 20 years old (now 66) and have done a lot of research about extended fasting during that time. In March alone, I read seven books about fasting. Though I've never attempted a fast this long (21-30 days was my longest before - can't remember whether I did the 30, or it was just 21), I've never had any ill effects from them. Also, there is a lot of benefit to be gained by fasting. For one, it gives my digestive system time to take a nice long break. Also, it kicks in autophagy, which rids your body of dead blood cells and sort of does a general house-cleaning job of your innards. @jimmiepop, @Shredness, @damablack13, @jwsalax and @ridermariel thank you for your support and encouragement. I appreciate you taking the time to share encouraging words with me and to cheer me on. @Snowwhite100, thank you ever so much for your faithful prayers for me! I know you care about me, and I appreciate you bringing me before the Lord, sister!
