I have thought about doing it this year for a multitiude of reasons. But it was so difficult physically I don't know if I am up to doing it again:perplexed.
 
Its not bad for me. Its hard but after 3-4 days, it becomes habit. Please reconsider. It truly gives me an amazing feeling during and afterwards.
 
WhipEffectz1 I came to the forum today to search for the 2012 thread and ask if anyone was doing this for 2013. So thankful that you already posted the 2013 thread. I definitely want to do this. It's been on my mind for a while now. Can you post the rules or guidelines that you follow for this?

I'll have to pray and think about it. I don't work a job where I can snack and eat at regular times. Many days I was not able to get enough calories in to function. It went from Daniel fast to outright fast too many times during those 21 days.
 
I'm in. I was planning on starting on the 1st, but I'll push it back a day. I'm excited about it. Spiritually, physically, mentally, I need a cleansing and purification. I'm so glad I'll have others to do it with. We can support each other!
 
What exactly is the daniel fast?

Sorry, I'd look it up, but I'm at work, and I don't have much time to really research and read about?
 
When does it start? I'm still thinking. My sisters and brother were mad at me last year. My mom started cooking more soups and cook without meat. I don't even live with her. I just eat there a lot.
 
This will be me and hubby's 5th year doing this. We do it every January with our church! 21 days. I'll post the link to the website we use later....


Hint. Wind down to it. Start eliminating sweets and goodies and breads right after Christmas. Don't start cold turkey. Intensify your prayers and set prayer times in the days leading up to it.

Finally, consider a COMPLETE FAST for a day or two before you start. It helps. One year DH an I ate nothing but sips of water for 3 days before we started the fast. It helps and gets you more focused on the purpose of the fast: to get closer to HIM.

I'll start January 7th. My son is scheduled for surgery that day, so I will need to make room for God' s blessings.
 
I am in although I will be praying on how long I should fast. I WANT to do 6 months but not sure if I should. i=But I know he will lead me to do what he wants me to do.

I am beginning on the 6th.

I want to do this but I may begin on the 6th.

I must admit that for some strange reason I'm feeling scared although I do fast regularly and have done a Daniel fast before. Some of the hidden things that have come to light after long fasts were painful, although I'm glad God brought them to the open to be dealt with.

Must resolve to just do it.
 
I'm in. I've been praying about this for a couple of months and have done some 'trial' fastings over the last 2 months. I need to do this.
 
I would also like to join :) I have not ever attempted a Daniel fast or know much about it I'll do a fast before Jan 2nd and pray God reveals to me whats best for me to do *subbing*
 
My church is starting on the 7th. They have provided a guide again for those who have questions on what to include and exclude.

Remember if you have health issues requiring more nutrition with MEDS, do that!
If you need to modify, like include a little dairy or juice, etc...do that.

I will also be fasting from Facebook and IG. I'm only coming on this site to blog here and check messages. I will not posting in OT or other threads.

Enjoy!

I'll be blogging updates as I go!

I've been doing this for a few years but I'm doing a modified version of the Daniel fast for 21 days this January. Not sure if it will allow me to be a part of this challenge.

I'll be doing no bread, no sweets, no grains, no meat, no dairy etc.
However, I might allow myself fish or eggs sometimes.

The allowing occasional fish is because I'm going to start working two jobs in January and I always lose so much weight and tire easily with the big drop in calories (I'm not good at maintaining my calories on this fast :nono: ). And I don't want to skip the fast altogether.
