So in the days leading to the fast, what must we do? Feast!
Friday (24-01-2025) :
Dinner at home. I also had some yogurt as dessert.
Saturday (25-01-2025) :
Dinner at home.
Sunday (26-01-2025) :
Lunch at home. I also ate some fermented veggies.
Monday (27-01-2025) :
Since I was fasting, I kept myself busy. I had loads of things to do at home anyway.
I was clearing the garden and Ah Boi came to kepoh.
Haiz! So I had to shoo her away.
Then she pulled this stunt.
She is my naughty girl.
These days, instead of baking cookies, I embark on my microbiology projects. This was Sunday. I made a new batch of sauerkraut.
The next morning, the brine from this bottle overflowed. I should have put the bottle on a saucer.
This was Monday's project - kimchi.
I will let the kimchi ferment for 48 hours.
The sauerkraut will ferment for 1 week.
Well, I made it through to 7:00pm and decided that I had to break my fast. I had leftover food in the fridge - beef trimmings and hard boiled eggs.
I guess there will be another time to attempt a 48 hour fast. No photos of my dinner since it was in containers straight from the fridge.
Happy cny eve! May this new year of π bring you and your loved ones good health, happiness and lots of wealth! π
ReplyDeleteThank you! I wish the same for you and yours!
DeleteI also can't do 48 hours fast already. Max is 24 hours. Any further I will get headache. Blame it on menopause.
ReplyDeleteNext time I will do small increments. Perhaps 25 or 26 hours and then build up from there. Hope your symptoms will go away once you complete the transition.
DeleteMy symptoms are not always around. They pop up now and then depending on what I eat so I am quite careful with what I eat now to prevent the symptoms from appearing.
DeleteI see. Now I am beginning to notice symptoms when I eat certain foods.
DeleteYour Ah Boi is so athletic! ππ» She looks so pretty in her shiny coat. π»Where is her mother and sister?
ReplyDeleteThat's why I thought she was a boy when she was a kitten. Her mother and sister were playing nearby.
DeleteAh, the chef figured out how to put 6 eggs on one plate beautifully like a flower. Very good ππ
ReplyDeleteYes, hah...hah...
DeleteAh boi took a peek-a-boo near the trash bag and dustbin.
ReplyDeleteShe was very curious and such a busybody LOL!
DeleteAh boi had a very pretty collar.
ReplyDeleteSomeone gave it to her, one of the neighbors whom I don't know which one.
DeleteThat Spiderman-wannabe pose, so funny, haha! Are those butter cubes? How you ate that? I mean did you eat together with the steak like a sandwich or ate it solely?
ReplyDeletehah..hah...Ah Boi is very cheeky! Yes, butter which I ate together with the steak.
