Na, not living with food for a bvit allows you too think about real stuff...putting shitty things into perspective.

and food is not the most important thing in life. Food is necessary to live, but so is clothing. Would you say clothing is the most important thing in life? You'd freeze to death in some areas if you did not have on some type of clothing.



Elevate your mind dawg.

Yes I know what fasting is...why did you do it , if you need to fast to sort out problems then you need some serious help.

nah i was talkin to q

Jesus said in the bible, "some things come only by fasting and praying." I did it because there are some areas in my life I'm struggling with that I'm applying this principle to. It's my faith. Also, fasting does clear my mind. It's a personal thing for me. So, you don't have a right to sit here and say I need "serious" help when you don't know me.

food, water, shelter..blah blah...
in certain parts of the world you wouldnt need clothes..in EVERY part of the world, you need food, so food and water > clothing

and don't tell me to elevate my mind, please

If u value food that much, then u need to elevate your mind.


Point is, fasting is based on spiritual principles. So, if you don't believe it you just don't believe it. However, there are medical studies out that show moderate fasting is actually good for the body on occasion. Food is really devastating to our bodies when we abuse it or don't treat out bodies right. And, all the hormones they're feeding the cows--as well as other chemicals-- affect us as well. Fasting is a good way to cleanse the body and get alot of those toxins out.

ONE WEEK?! you know how fucking dangerous that is!? that doesn't strengthen shit. it makes you weak. it makes you go insane. you should be thankful for food and fucking eat it. kids in africa would do anything to be in your position, having food available to them when they need it. I can understand if some fat guy wants to "strenghten himself" by fasting for a day or two, but 1 week is a really bad idea.

shit not eating that'd be hard but if i could just drink water i'd be cool

Physically speaking, no, it's not healthy to do it as much as I did. But, again, we're talking faith and spiritual principle here. I believe I'm stronger spiritually because I sacrificed something so necessary to "live". I think the hardest part was not being able to exericse like I wanted to. There we times when I felt ice cold when the heat was on 80 in the house. Then, once I broke my fast after 6PM by eating, I'd feel warm again. That made me realize why Homeless people often drink so much. Alcohol makes u feel warm when u don't have food.


does that make any sense?


lol


P.S. Jesus fasted for 40 days and 40 nights.

And, I know I'm not Jesus. But, the point is, there's precedence for doing it and I have my reasons.

whatever floats your boat i guess =/

in conclusion, this thread has made me crave tacos

^^^Yes...and they were quite good.


eat to live...don't live to eat

soon my frend... soon. werd
