How To Treat The Fast?

Dear Alice,

 With the fast coming up this weekend, I’m not really sure on how to go about it. 

Any tips on how to stay on track?

 

See my fasting guide below to help you stay on track!

Before the fast:

-Eat regularly throughout the day

- Drink extra water throughout the day

- Avoid salty foods such as sauerkraut, pickles, soy sauce, eggplant and spicing your food

- You may have one extra serving of protein at dinner and one extra fruit.

Good fruits to eat before a fast include watermelon, grapes and pineapple.

After the fast:

-Drink 2 cups of water

-This is your budget, preferably in this order but you may also switch the order if you wish:

One complete approved meal

Up to 3 fruits

1 snack

1 treat if needed

Remember: you can NOT make up all the calories of one day in a short time span.

Have an easy fast!
