There's a lot of Mondays this month...

I’ve started a new regime, which is fasting on Mondays…only clear liquids.  Yesterday was my first day trying this out and it went okay.  I made a batch of homemade chicken stock on Sunday to sip on throughout the day.  Add in water, diet soda (which is cheating just a  little bit), hot tea and iced tea and I made it through the day without a nibble!  Honestly, I was okay from the neck down, ie: my stomach wasn’t growling all day, but from the neck up, mentally, I wanted to eat!  All I have to say right now is TGIT — thank Goodness it’s Tuesday!

Tell me, do you ever fast?  What helps you get through the day?
