136.0 Fasting today.

In my church we fast on the first Sunday of the month. Why, well it is a way of showing that we can control the natural man also bringing us closer to relying on the kindness of a God who provides all for our physical beings by giving the foods that we would be eating to those who have less then ourselves. If we are fasting for something special it helps us to show the Lord our humble submission to desiring his help with our prayers to him in that endeavor and more humility is show by the going with out foods that sustain our bodies. So our family has a special reason to fast that was requested by our Faraway boy serving an LDS mission not to mention loved ones who are ill and ones who are in need of employment. We are showing our humility to him who can guide us to change the things that are causing strain in our life by going without two meals today.

Some info on why fasting is good for us.

My one meal: Butter crunch lettuce with sliced strawberries, vinaigrette and melba rounds crumbled over the top and then a 3.5 oz lean grilled hamburger. I wonder if the scale will drop more or stay the same.

154.0 top load weight for my last round.

So that was not to much of an increase even though I drank cream after dinner with sugar mixed in it.

Today is going to be a bit different for the first day of P2 protocol for me. In my church on the first Sunday of the month we fast and give to those who have less the monies we would have spent on food. Also when we have really important causes or needs we concentrate on the fast in a way that the Lord will know we are in great need and if it is his will then there will come a result in his time and if we do our faith filled part to help the result the need will happen to be helped. So that's today and I am fasting that my brother be able to find a job too and of course its my first protocol day so I am going to be missing the first two meals for the day which means I will only have one meal today of 500 cals. The scale should be interesting tomorrow can't wait to see if I drop all the loading plus the extra gains from last week pizza soccer meal.

Never had a hungry moment today either. Saying good bye to extra fat cells that are not needed anybody want them?
