So 21 days, no cheating, all the strength I had before, and a closeness to God I haven't had in a while. I love it. The kids have been on my mind constantly, you guys have been on my mind constantly, and on top of everything, I lost 14 pounds in 21 days. Amazing, makes me think about what I was eating before.
So I woke up this morning and was about to make my daily strawberry, banana, soy yogurt, soy milk, and OJ smoothie, when I realize, wait, I can have bread and meat. Right them my wife walks downstairs and lets me know that my brother in law and sister in law are on the way over to make me breakfast, and they are great cooks. I end up eating turkey sausage and blueberry cheesecake pancakes, yummmers. Then my stomach felt achy and then I hit the biggest sugar high I have had in years. 2 hours later.......CRASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am sure to take a lot from this fast going forward, and I love how Mark just put it, I need to take these lengths to get right in so many other areas of my life. You guys are awesome and inspirational, and I can't wait to go to Cambodia and see the work God does through us for these kids.
Sorry if this post made you crave food you can't have, but I am praying for you guys and know you can make it 7 more days. God Bless you guys, talk to you later.
