"Fasting without prayer is just a hunger strike!"
No meats means NOTHING that flies, swims, walks or
crawls. NO cakes, NO cookies, NO
fruit roll-ups, NO Cracker Jacks, NO
sodas, NO coffee or Kool-aid. NO jelly,
syrup, honey on pancakes or toast. NO presweetened
cereals or Jell-O. Just say "NO" to pretzels, popcorn,
potato chips, french fries, nachos, and the like. NO
Taco Bell, McDonald's, Domino's, Pizza Hut, Wendy's, Checkers, etc.
NO butter, cream, milk, cheese or yogurt. You are only
allowed ONE meal per day. This means that when you
sit down and begin eating your meal, once you've stopped eating that
meal, that should be the only food that you've consumed for the day.
You CAN watch Christian television such as Victory Today, Believers
Voice of Victory, Changing your World, etc. Fresh and dried
fruit, and 100% fruit juice is allowed, and is so much better for you
anyway! Don't get bored by repeating the same recipes over and over.
For the entire month there will be 79 meals to prepare. Think of pasta
as a main course, or tortillas, or potatoes. We have tons of new recipes
on the website for you to try. You, who have been struggling with weight,
may find your deliverance this week.
With the exception of individuals who are pregnant, have diabetes,
hypertension, children and toddlers, and those who are required to eat
one or more meals per day, everyone is able to fast at this level.
If you are pregnant, please remember to have at least three servings
of protein each day, such as cheese, beans, whole grains, and peanut
butter. Continue to drink milk, or eat some other source of calcium
each day. If you are on medication, continue it as directed. Those with
Diabetes, beware of too much fruit juice! This can make your blood sugar
run to high, so always have at least half the volume of your fluid be
water (you can even mix it with sparkling water to make a juice spritzer).
