If you do searches on fasting there are lots of great sites out there with rafts of information and stories of people fasting for 20, 30 or 50 days.

Which is brilliant and people report all kinds of miracles through fasting – cancer cures, stomach ulcers and depression.

If you’re new to fasting, which I was a year ago, it can all be a little daunting! So take it easy – take it a day at a time – lots of small changes make big ones. By getting to grips with the basics, you can build up over time and take on bigger challenges when the time is right.

One of the most amazing aspects of Fast Monday for me is the impact it has had on the rest of my life. I am amazed at the effect it has had on my overall eating habits. I find I am eating smaller portions and am much less likely to gorge or eat stupid stuff. Although – don’t get me wrong – I am no saint and am as capable as anyone else of having a couple of big slices of chocolate cake and then feeling rotten.
