I ended up fasting for 36 hours on Thursday/Friday instead of 24 because someone challenged me to 36. It was hard sleeping when I was so hungry and I didn't feel too great after 36 hours. I think I need to keep fasts to 24 hours.

Friday I bought very few groceries because so much food was left over from last week.

Saturday someone brought chocolate cake to the church potluck. My compulsive eating got the best of me and I ate several pieces (the pieces were small).

To help make up for it Brad and I walked in Point Pinole Regional Shoreline for 1 1/2 hours. The photo is me at Point Pinole. Click it for a larger size.

For dinner Brad and I made up one of the last two soy pizza crusts. I will be glad when they are gone now that I know how bad soy is. We topped it with turkey pepperoni and low-fat shredded cheese and had that for dinner. Of course I couldn't stop eating after that, even when I finally felt full. I full scale disaster though the food was generally healthy.

I am fasting today to make up for yesterday - just a 24 hour fast so I will eat something when I get home from work. My last food before bed was around midnight. All I've had to eat today was communion, one bite of cheese, and one bite of cookie.

Brad and I went to Palm Sunday services at the Episcopal church by the lake this morning, then went for a hike on a nearby trail. We'd been waiting to do it, but it's been too muddy. Today it was dry. We only managed a little over an hour walking in Anthony Chabot Regional Park starting at the Big Bear Staging Area. I was hoping for at least two hours and Brad wanted three! Oh well. It's the beginning of Holy Week so things will be a little crazy until Easter is over.

I'm barely hovering under 140, but oh well. It will come off. I am deciding whether to fast Friday or not, as least for most of the day. It's Good Friday so it would be traditional and help me lose weight. :)

Tomorrow I hope to go to the gym.

I'm replacing my "10 Commandments for Saturday Cheats," with just a couple simple rules. I may add on later.

Rule #1 - Skip breakfast 6 days a week unless I go to the gym. Then have a protein shake before and after. (I like the weight room and need the protein.)
Rule #2 - Saturday breakfast will be 2 scoops of Muscle Milk Light and nothing else, or nothing at all.
