this is what i did to occupy myself during my water fast yesterday. it's for a good friend whose baby shower is later today.the fast wasn't so bad. i even went grocery shopping with a friend- there were food samples all over the place! fortunately i didn't feel that hungry, so i wasn't tempted at all. i bought a bottle of fancy, german mineral water and enjoyed that. when i got home i finished crocheting and listened to some music. before i knew it, it was time to go to bed.
this morning i didn't even feel too hungry. i did feel weak, so i ate a banana. this was enough to get me through my entire practice. then i went to brunch and really broke my fast.
i've decided i like fasting. i like being mindful of what i'm eating. sometimes i get carried away with what i eat (and drink!) and fasting is like hitting a "reset" button.

sounds like you had a good experience. i did, too. i did it on saturday & sunday. dosen't it seem natural to fast on moon day? seems easy to me. let's do it again next moon day in 2 weeks.
