The root cause of all discipline failures is a combination of low self esteem,and emotional relationships with food using pleasure of eating to push away uncomfortable emotions leading to a guilt, binge, guilt cycle. Even if you do fast you will break it badly and binge. They a fruit diet for 5 days, and work on your thoughts, meditation, positive affirmation, prayer, etc. I use an enema to get past the hunger of the first 2 days but even if you can fast… you will fail to break it correctly and feel horrid.

I started drinking orange juice when I planned Water fasting, then I entire crushed and drank more juice, and then I began eating again … I was sooooo full after that, but then I feel sooo regret and cried too … this is multiple times I tried to do fasting, I really have no faith in myself at all right now :(
OTHER ppl all did great at least the first or 2nd day, I couldn’t even survive the half day … sigh …

It may be as simple as shrugging and saying – in your head or out loud – “Meh. I’m not hungry.” The more you think about NOT having food in your belly, the worse you will feel. Wrap your head around even enjoying the sensation of hunger. It’s just your body sending a signal. Observe it, but don’t react. Then dismiss it.

Another suggestion would be to anticipate hunger pains, they will be inevitable. Have a diversion ready: when I got hungry, I recognized that it was actually boredom in disguise. So go for a walk, play your guitar, “eat” a book… And in your mind visualize the enjoyment you derive from these activities as satiating your hunger. Sounds crazy but it works!

Once you’re asleep, you can’t think about being hungry :)
