Okay, you have to read this wonderful article about a ‘dog man’ who warms up to a barn cat named Mother.
It will make you teary-eyed, but it’s a good kind of teary.

Remember, small victories are important.
I’ve lamented on this very site about my three-year process desperately spent trying to find a teriyaki sauce that tastes like teriyaki sauce! You know, the yummy kind you get in restaurants. I’ve tried cooking my own, to no avail. I searched all sorts of fancy Asian-themed shops and health food […]
Some of these entries have been negative lately, and it’s time to concentrate on the good stuff.
So…Vegan Victories! No matter how small, these are worth celebrating.
The scales have shown a weight loss since starting this journey, but I never saw the changes reflected in my body. I don’t know if it’s harder to see on […]
Sorry for the delay, but I had fainted dead away from not eating. Just kidding! The third day was the easiest, with no hunger at all. Fasting definitely gets easier as you get further along.
So…was it worth it? Yes, mostly because I proved to myself that I could do it. A lot of the time, […]
If you’ve never tried it before, I’ll tell you one thing about fasting you may not know: It gets easier every day.
It seems counter-intuitive, I know; the logical thing is to think about how much your hunger will increase each day. At the beginning of the day, I was hungry, but it faded. And I’m […]
Already, I’m seeing much improvement during my second attempt.
The physical symptoms don’t seem as bad, or else they just don’t bother me as much. And this time, I have no doubt I can last the 3 days, maybe longer.
So, the things I’ve noticed. I usually experience the most hunger around early afternoon, and it fades […]
The best thing about science, what I’ve always loved, is the gross stuff. Given my passion, can you blame me?
Once, I was presented with a set of kid-themed books, fifteen volumes, of various stories and history lessons, etc. The last book, the glorious purple-colored wonder, was filled with just about every disease and ailment […]
Hello, everyone! I fasted for 1.5 days, then ate some bread. I could deal with the physical stuff, but the mental did me in. (That pic above is exactly what I felt like.)
I absolutely understand now, why, when I read about water fasting, people always call it a ‘quiet time for reflection’ and recommend being […]
Been fasting for: Almost 15 hours.
Hungry! Soooo hungry!! Hide your Fritos!

I’ve long been fascinated with nutritional science, and have tried just about every approach to eating there is, from Atkins (total dumbassery) to veganism (totally awesome.)
One thing I’ve never tried is fasting.
Fasting is being touted as a remedy for all sorts of bodily ills these days, and looking at the research, I believe it. […]
