16 1/2 hours in
Three quarters of the ay into this fast and I have to say I woke up this morning without much energy, or any real motivation to get up. I am not nearly as hungry as I thought I would be, but really I dont have a set meal schedule throughout the course of the academic week. Although I am not hungry now, I am about to leave for an 8 hour shift doing manual labor outside with a high of 46 degrees. In all honesty I hope that I get a glimpse of what its like to work hungry and tired as so many millions of people do everyday. Ive thought about a dollar amount for the money I have saved from not eating, and clearly this morning the $2 on coffee will the most felt. Although I am not particularly hungry, I do hope to at least gain some perspective of products and services that we all take for granted living in a first world country. I also hope that after contemplating on my purchasing habits, and the amount of money I spend per week on food that maybe this fast gives me the needed perspective to curb some of those habits.
