I think that I should do some fasting at least one day fasting to please God. But I can't . It's not easy for me. Food is my stress reliever. Enjoying food makes my day happy.
I've eaten this Snacku which is my favorite chips. I can't help myself so my fasting attempt is not successful again.
How often do you do praying and fasting?

@averygirl72 That is for medical reasons, I also fast before blood works.

I have tried that intermittent fasting before, I hate it. I didn't lose any weight either. Going too long without food makes me feel really low and depressed. I feel that way with Keto too. I hate that with a passion.

Fasting is not a mandatory in my religion, I am catholic, even though I often fast for 12 to 15 hours.

I forgot how many times. I did Daniel's fast and one meal a day fast. It's really hard, I understand you. That time I have to commit to it and stop myself from being spongy.

Yeah in our church they do the Daniel's fast which I think is easier than other fasting

@averygirl72 Yes, we always choose it. At least in it, we have something to eat and it makes our body healthier. I miss doing it with my Christian friends.

I can do fasting for health reasons at least 12 hours for a start and a lot easier. I eat dinner at 6 pm and will eat breakfast the following at 6 am or 7 am. That may be a good start. Since I have high blood sugar, my doctor tells me to do so and I can't do anything but follow him. When I was younger, say in my thirties and forties, I eat anything I want but to my realization, it came to my fifties when I have to do fasting.

I also do fasting for blood sugar test too and it is quite easy. I haven't tried a full day of fasting

I seldom fast but I do try to hear on the You Tube channels that have God's Word to encourage me.
