Yesterday I started my first fast, drinking only water with a tad bit of lime.
Day one wasn't difficult; whenever I got a little bit hungry, I just drank more water. Fasting, I'll admit, was very intimidating. Now that day 1 is behind me drinking just water, today, day 2 and every day thereafter for the next week or two, I'll be fasting only on watermelon.
Watermelon is an amazing fruit that can prevent cancer, macular degeneration, and increase heart health; and it can even help with erectile disfunction. It's Viagra without the side effects!
I know that I'll be "anti-social" during my watermelon fast. Thailand and just about every other country in the world has a culture that revolves around food. People have lunch and dinner together, primarily as a social event. Others have coffee and drinks together, mostly to catch up on gossip and to discuss politics.
Since I don't gossip nor do I like discussing politics, this is not such a bad thing. What I do like talking about, is travel, crypto-currencies, and making money online—if I'm lucky enough to find someone who likes to chat about these things.
There is a guy who lives in the same apartment as mine, also named David, and also from Atlanta (parallel universe, anyone? :), who did a water fast for 21 days. He said it was an experience that changed his life. He and a few others here were the ones who gently pushed me into doing a fast.
Increased awareness and endless energy is what seems to happen to people after they do a proper fast. This is what I'm after. I also believe that this will increase ones vibration levels further. See my intro post here regarding vibration levels.
I'll update daily on my fasting journey, for anyone who is interested. :-)

Watermelon is my most favorite fruit.... And my nick name "Tangmo" in Thai means "Watermelon"! I usually have watermelon in my refrigerator! Apart from its benefits that you mentioned, I think it's very yummy and I always feel refresh eating it! Very informative article!
Yes tangmo (watermelon), it's my favorite as well. :)
Very glad to hear that! ;)
