24 hour fast - hour 24

I finished the fast over an hour ago!  I felt weak as the last two hours dragged on but knew the end was near.
I'd like to say that it was a positive experience overall and I recommend it to anyone without any kind of medical condition that prohibits fasting.  I believe 24 hours is a reasonable amount of time for a beginner.  I also strongly believe (but almost never practice) that humans eat much more than is necessary.  In the USA we are bombarded with advertising of food, and also eat three meals a day and snack too.  Fasting may be a way to fight back against this culture of eating and the habits we've developed for years.  I plan to do another fast soon.
