25th Day of 40 Day Fast

Because of the fact that I've been poor for so many years, I seem to have an issue with eating food that's free that I would not otherwise eat. On Wednesday, I was at a meeting and they had blueberry bagels with cream cheese. The 80/10/10 fast that I'm on is "raw fruits and vegetables" but I ate one of those bagels (I was successful in avoiding the cookies, however). I did not feel good about myself! But, on Thursday, I went to another meeting and they had the same thing and I was able to NOT eat them. Yea! I think that the introspection and talking to myself about the fall on Wednesday helped me to be strong on Thursday. I am certain that I needed that talking to myself in order to continue with the fast. Next test will be Pierce County Christian Singles on Saturday.
