Hi all,
I'm a new member if the forums too, but I have promised myself to be more active here sharing my experience.
Firstly I'm glad for this connection platform which allows to interexchange ideas.
Life brought me down to my knees lately, had to take major decisions in life and was totally lost, won't go into details, but here is what I did and shortly after I was fresh and inspired which led me to making the right decisions.
So over that weekend I fasted one whole Friday sunset to sunrise of food and drank only water، was off work too so decided to ground up, took a shower, threw away all my unimportant things clothes that I don't wear and so, felt lighter overall then did a gentle excercise before sunset, took a shower and here we go sir:
It was the most delicious meatball spaghetti meal ever with a great piece of bread and a glass of coke! I realised again that happiness is internal and after fasting even this meal brought happiness to my heart and was fresh for decision making after such a spiritual day which was dedicated by fasting to God and asking him through prayer for the right steps. Amen!

I too have fasted, three times in my life for 3 days length each time, only water. I've done many 1 day fasts though as I was raised a Mormon and switched to Catholic later on. It is an awesome prayer to God isn't it? One can't help but feel spiritually cleansed after such things :) Welcome to the forums.
