I decided to do Ramadan this year... just like that, I know its already 11 days in, but I started on Sat nevertheless..
Sat: didn't have Suhur sp?(pre-sun rise meal) cuz I couldn't be bothered to get up at 4 am. Got up @ 10 am was fine, breaking the fast is not till 7:05 pm, I was invited at a relative house for a feast which was perfect - was OK all day only I had awful headache the last 2 hours before the break-fasting meal, not sure why cuz I don't really drink caffeine, perhaps the lack of water?
Sun: I actually managed to wake up @ 4am and had a few slices of cheese some yogurt and 2 pints of water, went back to bed and woke up @10 was absolutely fine all day, cooked a nice meal at the sun-set to break my fasting
Mon ..was really scared as am working, its one thing to fast while sleeping most of the morning and then sitting around the house, or visiting people, but at work..eeek was scared, I got up around 4 am I only had 2 pints of water, couldn't be bothered to eat.
Got up for work @7am, by 10 I was really really thirsty, but I stuck it, I felt foggy as well, lucky I didn't have major meetings and just did some simple PowerPoint slides , had my meal at 7:05
very interesting experiment, I thought I'd be hungry like hell especially I am the grazer type (eat all day long - but healthy stuff obviously) however I was never hungry, but was really thirsty and really really missed my hot drinks!!
