I do the same thing, but not as thorough as you every lenten season. My wife and I fast alcohol and/or meat. (Feb 25 - Apr 9) I wish more fasting and meditation was more emphasized. I've noticed that when fasting together & while appreciating his death more, God seems to bless us with a renewed peace of mind and heightened marital harmony. btw. "steak and a pint" is just poetic.

I just completed something similar - 40 days fasting Coptic style like my Egyptian Christian brothers. Basically it's a vegan thing. No animal products. I gave myself a day off on my birthday and another on my wedding anniversary - couldn't go 40 days without sushi. I'm a wimp. God did some cool things though - no doubt fasting changes things in our prayer life. Hey Vince, well done on the fast.
