Fr. I’m finding that the more fasts I do (every quarter of a year) the harder they are getting to get done. My goal is to one day do a 5 day one
Discussion
That seems like a good interval for longer fasts
5 would be tough, but people have gone for as long as 40 days or more!
I always struggle with sleep that second night of a fast, and 3 days has been my longest as well. all i could think about was food and time felt like it was at quarter speed
Same here. Jesus Christ did his fast for 40 days and 40 nights
I was thinking about food approaching the third day. Really hungry and low on energy
