Yesterday I woke up and felt the desire to fast. So I didn't eat the whole day.
I didn't expect anything from myself and would not have been disappointed if I would have broken fasting in the evening.

more good than bad, but mostly unusal. In my mouth, I have a very special taste, hard to describe. It's a perfect fit to green tea or salvia tea.

emptying the bowel, no need to brush teeths, just a short mouthwash, no need to cook or eat.
I don't fast because I want to lose weight. I feel very comfortable with my shape, but am a bit fed up with the christmas-newyeareve-eating-orgies.

I rather do it because it feels good. So today I didn't break fasting, like I expected, but continue. Maybe I will eat in the evening.

Now I eat something. I am a smoker, and after some research I found out that fasting while smoking can be very dangerous. Obviously, consuming nothing but poison is a bad solution.
One more reason to stop this shit.
