This fast has really been amazing for me so far! It has been so great to hear from so many of you who are fasting from food and other sacrificial items to join our community as we focus on God for the next 40 days! I know people who are giving up smoking, attitudes, all television (during football season!!), alcohol, and many other things. I'm so encouraged and I know that God is going to move as our hearts are humbled before him in this fast! I have already sensed that God is cleaning house in me: physically and spiritually. I feel fine tuned, like I can hear and see God in my everyday life so much more clearly. I really didn't anticipate this to occur so quickly. I'm also having fun trying juices out and seeing how my body reacts. Here is my pre juice photo of "red ice" which included worchestershire sauce, garlic and onion slices. It was quite an unusual taste, but satisfying. I believe my stomach has begun to shut off. No more real hunger pains and amazing focus when I'm spending time with God. Stay strong Genesis, know you are loved!!

I totally concur with you Pat on all points. Despite some initial tiredness, I now feel amazing, and do not crave or feel tempted to break the fast. The hunger is gone, but I still enjoy being very creative with the juicing posibilities!
Yeah God!
I am soooo excited that God is giving me the power to do this fast. I have never been successful fasting or dieting for any length of time, without cheating or giving up. With my commitment, the church praying, and God providing me with the discipline to continue on, I am just revved up!! And the nice side affect of the fasting, is the weight loss.
