    Fasting

    Well now I went and done it. Y’all know my love of eating, cooking and most importantly Food. Yesterday I had to go to Waco to have the leads pulled on my test spinal cord stimulator.

    Waco is an hour ride from my place and about as big of a city I care to visit. Being in the big city is an opportunity for food not found around my parts.

    unfortunately the Dink noodle shop was closed. I really had my heart set on a big bowl of Pho. Ended up at Terry Black’s Bar Que. It’s one of those go big or go home places . After stuffing my fat ass full, the ride home was a bitch. Belly full sleepy now hit hard..

    I couldn’t shower during the spinal cord stimulator test. The tape they used gave me a really bad reaction. Instead of taking my long awaited shower because I was stuffed.

    The nephew went with and we were talking & a fast came up. I know there’s big benefits in fasting so I figured why not try it. In 2 hours I’ll be 24 hours into a fast.💨

    Think of Yom Kippur, Jews fast from sunset to sunset next day, they say it’s good for the soul. I once went almost three days without eating but I was younger.
    Sometimes I wish I had a Harry Potter's wand and make people go up into smoke.

        I think fasting would be meaningful if done among family and friends with a HUGE feast at the end of it all. I'd do it. 100%.

          I used to fast every other day. But, it wasn't because I wanted to. Then, I discovered free buffets during happy hour and on Sundays at the titty bars in Houston. I could pack a lot down before they kicked me out for not spending any money.

            I don’t mean to brag, but I fast several times a day. In fact, I’m fasting now. I ate breakfast, and now, through sheer willpower I’m fasting until lunch!

            So know that I understand your pain, and together we can get through this!
