Today is the first day of a 21-30 day fast 6 out of the 10 team members are participating in. We all will have access to blog about different things that we are feeling during the time preparing for our trip. So enjoy! And if you have any questions you just comment away :)
Much love-

Praying for y'all!
Hey Rachel-
I am praying for you and the team as you begin your fast. Be encouraged that people all over are supporting you and praying for you.
So far so good. I had a salad and veggies for dinner, fruit and decaf green tea for breakfast and we stocked up on lunches yesterday @ Publix. Expensive! I wasn't talking to Craig b/c he gave my Raisinettes away @ the retreat. I've forgiven him though. Thanks for all of the prayers!
Well, Molly and I decided to join, a day late. We went and got all the groceries last night (ouch). So far, so good, but I am only 12 hours in. Sorry Heather, we got the Raisinettes, and they are gone. It definitely makes me pray when I am hungry and trust that God is with me. Good luck everyone, we are praying for you.
Today is a little better than yesterday. I was so tired and not feeling 100%! My favorite snack so far is an apple with peanut butter. I found some good info on some other sites. "Vitamin C - an antioxidant that supports detox. It may also help to decrease some of the side effects of the Fast, such as mild headaches." http://danielfast.wordpress.com/
I want to find some other recipes that I can make so I am not eating the same thing. So if you eat something good let me know! John and I went to Whole Foods yesterday and they have a great selection plus if you want a quick meal to go they have a hot and cold bar with great things we can eat. I want to go to the "The Grit" in Athens because they serve Vegan foods. I heard it is good. Otherwise I am hanging in there and trying to stick with it. Trusting that God will get me through.
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Oh I am sorry. I was just praying at my desk. (I wasn't sleeping).
I am actually doing really good. I was very tired yesterday afternoon and Julie and I slept for over 10 hours last night. I think our body needed the rest. Today has been good. I ate oatmeal with natural peanut butter for breakfast with a Venti Caramel Macchiato. J/K. I had a salad for lunch and have been wearing out a bag of pistachios and some figs. This should make for an interesting morning tomorrow. I am glad to hear all of you are doing good. Hang in there and always remember that if you start to want to eat the soles of your shoes, that is a good sign that it is time to start praying!!!
