    Wink My Water Fasting Journal

    Hey guys hope everyone is doing well today. My name's Austin, I'm a 19 year old guy and I decided I'd do a water fast to test my levels of self-discipline, break my addiction to smoking, and expand my consciousness. I plan on a 7 day water fast. Today is day 4 and I feel pretty good, I've been keeping a journal and that's one thing I'd recommend to anyone fasting. The things you write and thoughts you think are of a completely different nature then when you're not fasting and it's beneficial to have those thoughts on paper for introspection.

    The biggest change I've noticed so far is no cravings for a cigarette and an incredible increase in my awareness. It's a fantastic feeling. I'm not very hungry today which is what I expected so it's good to not be tempted by the hunger pains that frequented me the first 3 days.

    Music sounds incredible. I don't know if this is just my personal experience or if anyone else has had the same thing happen but I can't stop listening. I can hear all the little details that make a song perfect, I love that aspect.

    Anyways I've been keeping a very, very detailed journal on my blog and I'd love for you guys to stop by and check it out. I think you'll gain some new insights into fasting as I'm doing this for different reasons than the average faster. The link to the beginning of my journal is http://www.smartmusclegain.com/7-day-cleanse-day-1/

    I'd love to answer any questions or concerns that I'm able to so ask away!

    Because if next week was the right time I'd be doing it next week.
