Preparing for a fast

Tonight I am beginning my 24 hour fast. I've never actually attempted anything like this before, so I'm interested to see how it goes. I think this experience will test my self-control more than anything because I'm a huge snacker, especially when I'm bored. I tend to wander into the kitchen and munch on whatever I can find throughout the day, but I'm going to have to overcome this urge during my fast.

In preparation for this experience, I'm going to have a relatively large dinner tonight and began fasting right after that. I'm making BBQ chicken with broccoli and rice in hopes that this will give me some last minute nutrients and protein to tide me over. I don't expect that I'll run into many problems until tomorrow morning when I wake up and my stomach informs me that it's time for breakfast. Hopefully, I can make it to tomorrow evening without too much of a struggle!
