MJ, thank you so much for your good wishes. Right now I'm resisting giving you tons of advice but I'll just say one thing anyway: I think a big key is being careful to avoid carbs and favor protein early in the day.

She went from being normal to borderline to Type 2 and now, daily injections. A big problem is that she doesn't like traditional breakfast food. And I think she doesn't quite get that carbs contribute to high blood sugar. Anyway, I've got high hopes about this consult on Tuesday.

People who have experienced hypoglycemia get very paranoid about missing meals. In the 1970s among TM'er hypoglycemia was rampant mainly due to eating bad vegetarian diets. Many went back to eating meat and felt better. Maybe some truth in MMY's "eat what your mother puts before you?" We are essentially what our ancestors ate. If one is paranoid about hypoglycemia the tendency is to overeat rather than do the anal and inconvenient small meals throughout the day.

What did you experience after four hours without food or water? Were you also meditating during the fast? ---In fairfieldlife@yahoogroups.com mailto:fairfieldlife@yahoogroups.com, <no_re...@yahoogroups.com mailto:no_re...@yahoogroups.com> wrote: I did it, once, for *four* solid hours. Two years ago, around Columbus Day. Nothing - not even a peanut, or half cup of tap water - zip. You probably don't believe me, but its true. I think my years of TM helped, a lot. I must have been in a trance or something, to withstand it. I seriously thought I was going to pass out. Almost like Richard Harris, in that scene, from, "A Man Called Horse". Even so, I am working with a teacher, now, who says I can achieve *five hours*, of non-food, non-water - no problem. He's expensive, but worth it. I think he's Indian. Total cost is ~$1,000 (not including the non-food and non-water, of course). This is a tough crowd, here on FFL, so I'll say up front: This guy is no cult leader. After all, I've been around the block. Don't knock it, 'til you've tried it. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com mailto:FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <fairfieldlife@yahoogroups.com mailto:fairfieldlife@yahoogroups.com> wrote: Michelle Pfeiffer, the actress, has disclosed that she was once part of a “cult” which believed humans can exist without food or water.http://tinyurl.com/odb3y4c http://tinyurl.com/odb3y4c
