Day before the fast

Day before the fast

I have decided to fast for 40 days only on water mainly to gain control over my eating habits and to lose some weight. I think fasting will give me a chance to finally go deep into my emotions and figure out why I feel so empty. This is not my first time fasting, in the past I have fasted for more than 30 days. I was a regular faster, until last year. Last year on August 2008 I weighed 150 pounds at 5'8 height. Today I weighed my self and I weigh 249 pounds. In less than a year I have gained 99 pounds. I know that I can stop eating, but the main reason I am fasting is to find out why I gained this much weight so fast. Last year I was very depressed, I was in a crisis and experienced something very traumatic. Finally I have decided to take control of my life again. I know for a fact that fasting can help me find myself again. I have fasted in the past for cleansing purpose and I was at a health weight. Now that I have gained a lot of weight, I am worried I might develop diabetes or something.

I plan on fasting until true hunger returns. I hope to do some soul searching and get my life back in order. At the end of the fast I want to weigh under 200. I will post on a daily basis and at the end of every week I will weigh myself. I know I can do this and I just have to take it one day at a time
