Here are some suggestions you may want to consider:
1. Fast from Anger and Hatred
Give your loved ones an extra dose of love each day.
2. Fast from Judging Others

3. Fast from Discouragement
Hold on to Jesus' promise that He has a perfect plan for your life.

5. Fast from Resentment and Bitterness
Work on forgiving those who may have hurt you.
6. Fast from Spending Too Much Money
Try to reduce spending by 10% and give those savings to the needy.
GOD BLESS!
