Daniel Fast – This Girl Wears Heels

Daniel Fast – Meal Plan

If you've been on my instastories, you will know that I have been posting what I've been eating over the last 10 days on on the fast. So far, I'm not craving anything in particular, I haven't given in to any temptations and my body is feeling great. Remember that the Daniel Fast is a spiritual fast and not a diet. Sure, there are health benefits but that should not be the primary focus. It requires intentional times for prayer, worship and bible study. "A diet may change the way you look, but[...]

#Goals 2019

Am I too late to wish you a happy new year? I hope not! I hope you had a lovely Christmas break and that you spent it with those you love. Also, thank you for joining me in 2019. If I'm very honest, I didn't think I'd still be here. I thought this would be one of those things that I would give up a long time ago, and while I could do better in terms of consistency, I am proud that I have kept it going. So it's one week into the new year. Do you have some resolutions, or have you set int[...]

Daniel Fast – Journal – Week 3

We are 3 weeks into fasting and prayer and it's been great. It's not been without challenges, but we feel strengthened. Are you fasting? How has it been for you? This post has been difficult to write. I started on Saturday... This week my spirit was more heightened to what was happening particularly with 'new age' messaging. I know this has been creeping in over the past, and now more than ever Christians have started to incorporate 'new age' teaching in their daily lives. It's everywhere[...]

Daniel Fast – Meal Plan – Week 3

This is your bonus blog post featuring my meal plan for week 3. As mentioned in my previous post, halfway in and so far my body is feeling great. I haven't been bloated for over a week (which is unheard of for me). I am also not as sluggish as I used to be. I haven't had any withdrawal symptoms and the cravings have subsided. I am getting nourished with tasty meals (my food is far from bland), and I'm enjoying it! Also, I am drinking at least 2 litres of water daily - thankfully I'm never to f[...]

Daniel Fast- Journal – Week 2

Welcome back! I hope you had a lovely week. This is my second journal following week 2 of the fast. I've been physically fine - very few cravings this time. I didn't meal prep though, but managed to stay on track. I also managed to incorporate some exercise (PIYO) on top of my usual 80 minute walk (needs must - I don't drive and need to do the school run). My body feels great and 'light'. I feel very well. My emotional and spiritual experience has been more difficult though. For the most part I[...]

Daniel Fast – Journal

As you know My husband and I have been on the Daniel Fast sine 1 January. I can say that it hasn't been easy - particularly on the food front. I have had every sort of craving under the sun - even for things I haven't eaten in a while like goat meat! Yes - goat!!! I also admit that I had good intentions in making some popcorn for the family - and I kinda ate the whole bag by myself - not my finest hour that one! My poor husband came downstairs having being lured by the smell - only to find an em[...]

Daniel Fast – Meal Plan

If you are new here, welcome! Glad to have you! If you've been here before, welcome back! This is my third post on the Daniel Fast. You may be interested in my previous introductory posts on the Daniel Fast. These can be found here and here. In this post I will share my meal plan for week 1 of the fast. I like preparing in advance in a bid to eliminate guess work and to keep me from indulging. The internet has been a great resource for me - I've basically searched for vegan recipes and[...]
