The fast I did is called the Daniel fast, as in the Daniel from the Bible. You can read about it in the book of Daniel. It is a fast for health & healing.If you want more details, you can google it! The bread I ate was this sourdough that I found at a market, just read the ingredients, if it says "bleachedflour, then it's no good for this fast.
For breakfast:
Applesauce w/ Ezekiel bread toast (which you can find at your local heath food store)I put Smuckers 100% Simply Fruit for breakfast or rolled oats w/ fresh fruit.
I ate, apples (no skin), pineapple, grapes, nectorines,(you can eat any fruit you want)
And fennel crackers thatI also found at the market.
I snacked throughout the day, & then for dinner I ate boiled potatoes, brown rice, & veggies. One night carrots, another night blackeyed peas & green peas, another night boiled cauliflower! Yeah, it was boring & somewhat difficult, but I really benefitted from it. I think it kinda retrained my bowels & helped detox a little bit. Any fast will help detox the body. But if you decide to do it, don't go for a long time on it at first if you're not used to fasting. That's why I only went 3 days.
Since then I've been eating boiled veggies, potatoes, & brown rice for lunch lately. But, I've gone back to my pretzels for snacking, now I also do alot of fruit through out the day too. I don't eat much red meat any more, just chicken. But I had to reintroduce my body back into fats slowly after the fast. I still eat small amounts of chocolate too.
Apple juice dosen't bother me, not even if its from a bottle.
I'm no longer on Zelnorm, now if get I get C, I take Lactulose, I got some from my GI. I've only taken it once so far., cuz that white cheesesauce just was too much to resist.
As for the Lord, just ask, by faith, for Him to help you, & He will. But you must believe in your heart!!! He loves you so much Augie. Hope this helps!!
