Day 21

Hurray for me I've equalled my own previous fasting record of 21 days. I'm up at 4:30 in the morning typing this, listening to blues. I've got enough body fat for another couple of weeks though I reckon, sorry to anyone who sponsored me a pound a day and expected they would be giving me a tenner, your loss is Warchild's gain.
Thanks to Warchild people are becoming more aware of the abuse of children in war torn countries. This kind of crap has to be stopped so thanks to all my sponsors, you rock.
Three weeks fasting is officially therapeutic fasting and according to my doctor's book I need a good vitamin supplement. I went to the health shop and tried to fathom the rows and rows of bottles and packets and ended up with a natural vitamin powder that dissolves in water.It seems to contain a lot of essential vitamins and minerals. This is designed to keep the body working properly as the stored nutrients in the body get used up. Fruit juice and b vit drinks are good but they do not give you things like calcium magnesium and loads of other nutrients that stop you getting health problems. I can burn my own body fat for energy but with these health supplements as well I'm probably healthier than I've been since the last 21 day fast a year ago. The vitamin drink doesn't taste that great though, it looks weird too, kind of dirty green but it will give me the boost I need as I have to work this week, doing physical things and dealing with people. When you get depleted of nutrients it can be easy to feel moody and impatient so any help I can get is good. That aside, I'd rather be eating a salmon and cream cheese bagel!
