this treason from within that reasons with my sin

Day 8 (of projected 21) of Daniel's fast. You know, I never knew just how much I loved meat until I quit eating it. And I thought what I would miss most would be the pastas and leavened breads. Nope. I think I can do without those.

As for this very moment...I skipped breakfast and some veggies from Panda sound really good right now...but they're made in chicken broth. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak...

The good parts of the fast so far:
-God has given me a direction for the bible study in the fall. I'm going to pray about it for the next few days/weeks and see if there's anything else He wants me to know
-God has been blessing my marriage--even our fights. I always learn something new about J and myself.
-I feel AMAZING. Tired from lack of caffeine, but not to the point of painful detox. Stomach issues non-existent. When I start eating the rest again, I'll add it back gradually to see if I really should cut back on the dairy, or if it's the pastas, etc. or meat itself. Excited to find out how my body works.

Hope the problem isn't meat, though. Really love meat.
