I found liberation in the basic fasting Wednesday & Fridays as Our lady requested. Don’t tell anyone you’re fasting, pray to The Holy Spirit especially and your good Guardian Angel constantly. They’ll help you with this “urge” to eat everything set before you. So just model yourself after Daniel in the book of Daniel. The Holy Spirit enlightened my mind about food and I follow these disciplines to this day! So, maybe just hide yourself in the Sacred and Immaculate Hearts and you’ll ascend the mountain and stay your ground in the Spirit. Also getting rid of your television 📺 and purifying all your senses is helpful. Immensely helpful. Courage!
Yes👏! Wednesdays and Fridays I do crusty bread or toast and sparking water/ or just water. It wasn't that hard. My taste buds appreciated tastes after. I will stay with this, as I have a prayer life. 🙏✝️👋💐
@@patrycjaojczyk1986 Breakfast, lunch and dinner I have bread or plain toasted. Nothing but bread and water. If you have a bad day, its the hardest challenge tho.😖
Ah, please pray for me😢 I just bought an Xbox a week ago ago and a headset is supposed to be delivered tomorrow. M friend and I started a Marian consecration on Mother’s Day though. I have great hope in the consecrations power.
Gluttony is hard because we have so much food available and I’ve also heard from Dr Marshall that its also nor just abstaining from eating but gluttony also means a desire for dainty or specially prepared food. So if the food is not salty enough or its not the perfectly spiced or not the perfect temperature and texture and so on.
Good job Gabi. I began intermittent fasting one year ago, but only when I connected it with rosary before Easter our heavenly Mother freed me of my addiction. Our blessed heavenly Mother is now often in my thoughts and I am her thankful son again.

This video is so incredibly helpful! My father has been fasting every Wed and Friday for several years now. When I was a lost sheep I used to think it was cool but always shrugged it off like “I could never.” Now as a born again Catholic, he has called me to consider fasting. I’ve been growing closer to God since my conversion, whenever I thought of fasting this gulp in my throat formed. I’ve always had such poor discipline. Still struggling with it. Anyway, I decided today on Wednesday I want to fast. For God. But only on hour 3 I started getting hungry and like the video suggested I started making excuses in my head and that’s when I searched for this video. I also started thinking how this might help me fit better into my wedding dress in 7 months and felt so guilty for having ulterior motives. I thought what’s the point, if I’m not doing it for God, why do it at all. But obviously that was my weak mind giving up and making excuses again. Hearing that it’s ok for our minds to have those ulterior motives, solidified my decision to go through with it. I hope to do this every Wednesday and eventually every Wednesday and Friday. My father is incredibly close with our Lord. And despite having an extremely difficult life, his trust in God has lifted him and never failed him. I pray that I can get this far in my relationship with God ♥️ May God bless you all!
I used to fast all Wednesdays and Fridays on bread and water for some time. But lately I've been weak and not able to fast properly. Your video came in good time, I will get back to fasting again with the help of our Blessed Mother. Greetings from Brazil, Salve Maria Imaculada!
@@relletolentino9391 I think the key is to keep doing it anyway through prayer, unless it is really bad and debilitating. In that case, maybe you need to consult your physician. If your doctor tells you you can't fast, you can't fast (as in not eat) but there are other methods of mortifying our passions when it comes to food outside of this. If it is debilitating and you cannot consult your doctor, perhaps try some of these methods instead. But if it's just a mild headache I'd think that is relatively normal.
Yay! Just finished attending The TLM! Was about to waste my time watching other videos, and then... this video! I've always been struggling with gluttony. God saved me once again Through His Immaculate Mother! May God bless you and May The Immaculate Heart be our Refuge!
Manorama, I will pray. Start by trying to replace sugar. I have found when you get rid of sugar, breads, pastas, rice, etc. for just 3 days that helps to kick the habit and you can restart clean. Just my observation. Mary be with you!!!
Thank you for this, I wasn't taught anything about fasting in my RCIA class, which only consisted of watching the Catholicism dvd set by Bishop Barron. I wasn't very impressed. I did my own study using the Baltimore Catechism and videos like yours have helped me to enrich myself.
I am also going through the Baltimore Catechism, and have learned so much. I bought level 3, the one for high school students, to make it easier and so I can understand it. I will then go through the one for adults.
Thank YOU! This is a timely talk. It has taken me a long time to fast. I wanted too, but I was weak. I had gained weight due to stress and my sister's stage 4 cancer. I started giving in to all of her cravings. 3 years and 40 lbs later, I realized my willpower was gone. I started watching Dr. Fung. I wanted to fast with my prayers but my willpower was low. 3 months ago, I gave up sugar, did 16:8 and the weight fell off. My guilt was that it was not pure for the Lord. Now, my willpower from fasting is stronger, and I give it all to GOD! Thanks for this. I love fasting for the Lord!
YES! YES! YES! I love Dr. Fung. I am going to pin your testimony to the top. It is a great witness to the truth that God's ways are the best ways! Keep it up. Mary be with you!
This is just what I needed to hear, im a massage therapist who knows of all the benifits of fasting and yet I never do it except for fridays. This is a good time to practice what I preach to help save souls
Try the Wednesday & Friday ( recommend at Fatima & Medjugorje)and ask Our Lady for Grace’s to prevail and you will go from strength to strength! You’ll see! I’m putting you in my Eternal prayer basket. Courage!
@@Angelina6518 I started last week and so far so good by Gods grace. Ive had amazing results at my work with people coming up to me and asking me about the Faith. Keep strong and keep fasting we need to do this to save souls
@@Angelina6518 hey Angelina add me to the prayer list please. :) i was thinking of fasting before i went to sleep. i woke up and this was the first video I click. Wednesday and Friday it is.
@@Angelina6518 add me too😄 I just commented on fasting on Wed & Fri on bread n water like Our Lady requested to a previous post b4 I came to ur post. The trouble is I'm not very successful at putting it into practice - oh well onward & upwards🤞🙏🙏
Whether you are religious or not. Fasting once a week and spending time remembering those that have nothing is humbling and reminds you of your luck in life
Wow...isn't it amazing how God provides us the words we need to hear through our brothers and sisters? Thank you as I stumbled across this video and it was exactly what I needed to hear!
I have been fasting on Wednesdays and Friday but sometimes, I work for 12h on those days. Well today, I was working. Anyway, I saw one of your fasting videos the night before and was really mentally preparing myself for today. My job is physical and sometimes, when I am working and fasting, I get bad headaches and a little shakey cuz I don't always have a chance to drink water. So today, I wasn't sure if I would be able to fast the way I wanted to fast. I went to noon mass and the Gospel and homely spoke about fasting! I thanked the Holy Spirit for giving me that extra confidence to push through because I was thinking about eating my soup for lunch. Thank you Gabe!
I tried fasting over and over …..and failed UNTIL I ADDED SALT TO MY WATER……NOW I CAN GO A WHOLE DAY WITHOUT FOOD AND DON’T EVEN CARE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! P. S. I find drinking coffee causes more problems because of its acidic affects.
Thanks for this video. I've been thinking a lot about fasting & this video was very encouraging. I have went back to observing meatless (vegetarian) Fridays & no deserts except on Sundays or birthdays. I have also given up all alcohol for about 5 years now. I offer these things up for the church, my sins & the sins of the world.
Wow! That was some video. Ways to fight the devil is my priority lately. I practice fasting but has to perfect it for penance. I learned something huge from listening to Fr.Mark Goring’s reading from the book “Mariam of Bethlehem” that, what hurts the devil most is humility and obedience. Remember, Satan fell due to his pride and envy towards the Creator and Savior of the world. I myself bought the book and is almost done with the book. A lot to learn from that book on a life pleasing to God. Thank you for this very important reminder. May God Bless you and all your listeners to be blessed through fasting!
I’m getting ready to start week 4 of one-meal-a-day fasting - incl all day Fri. but not at all on Sundays. So far it’s been all about my health. Thanks for the encouragement to add the spiritual dimension!
Thank you for this video. I struggle with emotional eating and binge eating. I told myself that fasting from food was off limits since it can trigger binge eating. However, I am starting to believe it’s a lie I am telling myself . I truly believe fasting is powerful enough to allow God to deliver me from this strong addiction and dysfunctional behavior pattern. I’ve worked with therapists and come far but I believe what remains is a spiritual thing. I’ve also seen how my weakness with food spills into other areas where discipline is needed and where discomfort is inescapable. I will watch this video a few more times and pray about guidance on how my fasting can look for this and so many other special intentions. Thank you for this video and for all the good content
Fasting is like a super power from God. Sugar and processed foods are addictions that play games with our minds. Start small and progress. I would recommend trying to go 3 days with no sugar and no simple carbs... that in itself will be very difficult. Then when you are no longer sugar dependent... fasting will be easier.
Wed and Fri fast, year round with proper sacramental/devotional life. It will kill vice and grow virtue. Dr Richards book Eat, Pray, Fast was helpful for me. Fiat!
Yes, because when you leave Lent, I have never wanted to just dive into holiday food. It doesn’t feel good to be on this 40 day minimalist journey, and then on Sunday or a feast day, roll of the wagon. And, at work, we had to change the way we rewarded ourselves. As preschool teachers we would by those doughnuts and sweets for each other, but we started to rethink our choices, now we by oranges, flavored water, and skinny pop❤ We feel much better 💕
Fasting helps me literally live in the Lord’s realm. So comforting and revealing especially during quiet time in God’s presence and prayer or reading God’s Word, many prayers and direction obtained by fasting. Alleluia ❤️🔥🕊✝️
Dear Gabriel, thank you for making this video. I am a very health compromised person. I cannot fast. I was very encouraged to hear you talk about giving up the sweet stuff and that it counts as fasting. It was good to see you on air again.
I like his videos too, but my favorite is dr Pitre Brant, fr Casey, Bishop Baron, fr Mike Schmidt and sensus fidelium with the exorcist Fr Chad Ripperger. Love another exorcist called Vincent Lampert.
Awesome video - so relevant and I pray more people learn the miracle of this gift God has given us. I do intermittent fasting and low carb (not entirely keto - I eat a lot of beans) - and I have reversed my PCOS. Having watched your videos I have decided that from today I will pray 4 rosaries everyday. i have done a few 3 day water fasts before and I struggled a lot with the re-feeding after as I had some sort of subconscious mentality of needing to replace the food that I had lost. I know this was the darkness trying to derail me and undo all that was accomplished. I am currently praying to conceive and for my marriage to grow and blossom and be pleasing to God. Having prayed the 4 rosaries for the last 2 days my life has already started to change, my life inside myself and how I behave outside as well. I now feel joy and am able to let many things pass and release grudges that I would have previously kept in my heart. Thank God for the wonderful rosary and the gift of the miracle of the Mother of God as she intercedes for us.
I started fasting every other day for the salvation of souls recently but all your reasons in the beginning of this video are so concrete and give me so much motivation to continue-this is little suffering for great benefit. Thank you so much!
As a former boxer I understand the benefits of fasting to get ready for a fight. I do different spiritual fasting but my favorite and works for me is two slices of white or whole wheat bread with a cup of water for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I attend Mass and receive communion on those days. I start my fasting at 12 midnight and have a regular meal after 12 midnight. Salad with vegetables because you don't want to anything heavy when you go to bed. So for example It's 12:00 am. My fasting has started. I go to bed and wake up at 6am I pray the Angelus and the rest of my Catholic morning prayers and the rosary and then I eat two slices of bread 🥪 and a cup of water. Then at 12 in the afternoon I pray the Angelus again accompany by the rosary and I'll read a chapter or two of the Gospels and then I eat two slices of bread and a cup of water. And then at 4 I'll do some other prayers, usually I do the Chaplet of divine mercy at 3 and by 4 I just eat two slices of bread and a cup of water again and that would be my last meal for the day until 12 00 midnight. And like I said I go to mass at 7:30 and receive communion that's really my last meal until midnight. And that's how I became a saint😇😁🤣😂🤣. Just kidding 😉 lol. But if your beginner don't do it the way I do it. Start small like a portion of oatmeal or a cup of fruits with some water and have a regular lunch and dinner. You have to built yourself up little by little. God bless everyone
Thank you for this video. Lately I’ve been struggling to get back into my fasting. This video has helped me remember the reasons why it’s good for me and how I can help God. By the way, for those who want to lose weight…. I tried fasting just for that reason and I never could do it, but when I add prayer to it… it’s so much easier!! I definitely receive the help from the Holy Spirit. God bless you all.
Thank you for this video. It popped up in my recommendation. I just had a meal after 17 hours of skipping a meal. Will continue the fast until tomorrow morning.
Ever since the Plandemic began, I also began reducing the amount of food I was consuming. I can go several days with 1 meal a day, and sometimes, like on weekends I do 2 meals a day, no longer do I do 3 meals day. I guess I have been doing the Benedict option when it comes to meals, and now that my Brother is giving me room to cook my own meals, I can now do what I need to do. During the entire Plandemic, I have been inadvertently preparing for the day I was able to go to confession and recieve Jesus in Holy Communion...this happened last week, and today, 27th week in Ordinary Time, I was able to go to Mass...might not be so lucky next Sunday. But now, I will have better foundation for prayer and fasting.
Perfect timing. Exactly what I need right now!!! . Important for all of us to unite our prayers and fasting to fight the “good fight” for Our Lord and Savior JC. 🙏 🕊 📿
I can attest to the power of fasting. I needed to forgive people that have hurt me seriously but despite praying and doing special pardon sessions; the anger would well up again. After I did a three day fast (I had a few light meals, it was not without eating throughout) the spirit of unforgiveness was broken and I managed to forgive. I recommend regular fasting to fellow Catholics. It brings a lot of good.
I’m impressed by your testimony!! I was recently told by a relative that I’m bitter about a past incident in my life and have to forgive and forget. The dismissive attitude upset me even more! Will definitely try to fast. 🧐
today ismy secound day od dry fasting. Keep thumbs for me for another two 😁😀 When I fast I have alot of sleep and deeper and deeper relax, I make my time as pleasurable as its possible and to have fun of simple things I do I dont go to confession from a year and I feel better and better and I would go to confession again- not in "traditional"( I doubt it is real tradition or thing that Jesus want to do)way that I apologise for things- cause there was nothing I done in bad intention etc- some years ago I was afraid of fasting cause after three hours of non eating I feel weak now I love fasting and it unlocks almost everything- one of the best method it is for better life in every spacies I eat a lot psyhically and spiritually and in my youth and there I have no limit in positive sense
GOD bless you Gabi! Very inspirational video. Especially in these dark end times of the world when we incline to fasting, things what we see at this particular time will change. We will break each storm. Fasting helps us to examine ourselves in depth how far in each day we are going out of the love of God and his commandments. When we fervently fast we will hear the inner voice of our GOD. Our Almighty JESUS CHRIST please change our solid heart so that we be humble and respectful to your will.
I have been fasting for a long time now for weigh purposes but now I am fasting for the grace of God. I offer it him for various reasons. It’s not easy but it’s important and beneficial in every sense of the word.
Great video. I’m going to try to get back to 18-6, thanks. I totally agree with the idea that if with we have control over one set of passions (w/Gods help) it helps us have more discipline in other areas as well.
Thank you for this video Gabi, I always think that God wants us to be healthy through fasting. I'm underweight and has GERD problem, so I'm trying to: cut out sugar, eat real food aka delete processed food, and eat as much as my body need (not as much as my tongue need to be pleased). I often time think that what I do is not enough, and this video really answer that doubts and questions in my heart. Sending support for your channels from Indonesia, God bless you!
Helen. So good to hear from you. Yes. There are a lot of things you can cut out that will benefit you. Especially cut out processed sugars. You will notice a lot of great changes.
Thank you, Gabi, for this. I have tried one fasting and on the 3rd time, I have headaches and felt week. I will try the 16:8 intermittent fasting. May our Lord and Blessed Mother aid me in my intention.
Hello Gabi, your videos have influenced me greatly. I do not know how to express how much they helped me ease the challenges of my secret consecration. Your habitual praying of the Holy Rosary is most amirable. I am fixing my path to sanctification knowing that someone like you is ahead of the pack.
Thank you @Gabiafterhours for your very informative videos. Everyday at dinner, my kids (10,5 &3) want us to listen to any of your videos after which we discuss lessons learnt and make resolutions that are age appropriate. We love your videos and definitely you. God bless you abundantly.
Right on time. I was low key discouraged to fast but I shall rise up with the help of God and do it. I will start as fast as I receive permission in the confessional . Ave Maria!
I always wanted to fast regularly, this is very helpful. It seems that the norm in the church was not eating until the ninth hour (3 in the arternoon). Considering people woke up at the crack of dawn its a lot.
I'm fasting from chewing gum and chapstick for the past 3 years for my son's to receive the grace of true repentance for their sins and make a good confession.
Oh boy, all that lovely food you're showing me ......This is my 2nd day of not eating. It's certainly hard but I'm praying more...Cooking for my family ...HARD. Please strengthen me Jesus.
I fast on MONDAY WEDNESDAY AND FRIDAY WATER AND BREAD BLESSED MOTHER SAID THIS GAVE UP ALL SUGAR AND JUNK FOOD TUESDAY,THURSDAY SATURDAY AND SUNDAY ONE MEAL AT 2PM FOR SOUL'S AND GAVE TO THE BLESSED MOTHER TO USE. SOME FASTING DAYS ARE HARDER THAN OTHERS.I LOST WEIGHT FEEL BETTER I NEED PRAYS. PRAYING FOR ALL GOD'S CHILDREN
Great video. I started IF a few years ago after I dated for Lent. I managed for Lent so carried it over to daily. I do 16:8 but fall sometimes! And I try to do a 24 hour fast the first Wednesday of every month. Thanks so much for this! Brilliantly presented!
WOW!!!! It is so great to hear that Our Lady has us all trying IF. Thanks for sharing! Yes... first Wednesday is usually done in honor of St. Joseph. Very powerful. Thank you for your continued support :)!
@@gabiafterhours thank you. Yes I only became aware of the first Wednesday for St Joseph earlier this year when we done the consecration. I believe she helps us as times goes on and also makes us aware of what she wants by guiding us to various materials, like your videos etc. when we let her know that we want a real relationship with her! 🙏 Thank you for all the information you put out there!
YOU ARE RIGHT & GREAT TEACHER OF FAITH FOR TRUTH OF GOD. YES fasting is great for JESUS CHRIST did it. I do it for I believe in its spiritual and physical rewards. Fasting for Jesus Christ gives me moral, physical, emotional ... wellbeing daily not on medicine. Yes Immaculate Mother Mary intercedes for all I need for Her son JESUS CHRIST reciprocates all the her love.
I have been fasted since this morning. I will be done in exactly 9 mns... I just started intermittent fasting and I am.so heavenly proud I can make it every time. To help me through it, I make sure I pray the rosary throughout the day and as Gaby said, I tie my fast to a special, dearest to my heart type of intention. I want the Lord to help me soooo bad that I give myself reasons not to give in when I am tempted. Thanks Gaby!!! Merci beaucoup.
its so weird yesterday when i started to fast, i thought i was going to get angry, i was so worried. Usually when im hungry, i get angry. but when i tell myself i offer this hunger for something greater, my mind stops me and i was calmer then i was before
With you all the way!! You are lovely and inspiring! Thank-you for everything you do, thank you for being a real, good catholic and showing the way to so many and thank you for saying yes to mother Mary each day! May God continue to bless you and your loved ones each day, thanks for the good work! It is useful, powerful and appreciated 🙏😇❤️ merry Christmas
I regularly watch Dr. Berg too! He has helped me stay on track with my physical health just as you have helped me stay on track with my spiritual health 🙏🏼💜
A great goal is to try and make it until 3 pm... the hour that Jesus died. This way when you are tempted you can know Our Lord also was suffering and His agony like yours will end at 3 pm.
Keep trying. I tried in 2020 and failed every month, but this year since May I haven't fallen. I do IF because I have hypothyroid, but I have decided to fast once a week for spiritual reasons. I asked Mother Mary to pray for me and the cause of my failings disappeared
I'm a classic yoyo. Began cutting back after last dr visit. On work days I can do black coffee, a piece of fruit for lunch& dinner at night. Just need to be more consistent. Best wishes for your succes.
LOVED this video content ... SO comprehensive ... great information ! The didache calls us to pray and fast on bread and water every Wed/Fri . In Canada we abstain every Friday of the year and I don't eat grain except the Blessed Sacrement so I am starting it today and will do it for 3 weeks ... water only (double what I would normally drink) blessed salt and that's it ! Wednesdays for the same 3 weeks I am going to abstain If all goes well I will then i will include the fast on Wednesdays also .... May God reward you !
I used to watch your early videos and remember how devoted you were to the rosary. I have wondered where you were and today you turn up in my CZcams selections! God bless.
I want to fast for the conversion of my wife. I started a 54 Day Rosary Novena for the intentions of my marriage. Blessed Mother, pray for us.
Do it. The Rosary and fasting together.
@@gabiafterhours How do I fast? I want to fast every day but I’m not sure which method to go with, I’m thinking bread and water fast but I’m not sure.

@@patrycjaojczyk1986
Breakfast, lunch and dinner I have bread or plain toasted. Nothing but bread and water.
If you have a bad day, its the hardest challenge tho.😖
@Angelina Friscia how did you fast?
Ah, please pray for me😢 I just bought an Xbox a week ago ago and a headset is supposed to be delivered tomorrow. M friend and I started a Marian consecration on Mother’s Day though. I have great hope in the consecrations power.
Let us not forget, when we suffer, the headaches, the hunger pains, etc. to also offer it up to our Lord Jesus Christ.
And to the Holy Souls to Purgatory 🙏
Fasting doesn't change God's heart. It changes ours. It gives our spirits dominance over our flesh.
Absolutely!!!!
Gluttony is hard because we have so much food available and I’ve also heard from Dr Marshall that its also nor just abstaining from eating but gluttony also means a desire for dainty or specially prepared food. So if the food is not salty enough or its not the perfectly spiced or not the perfect temperature and texture and so on.

YES! YES! YES! I love Dr. Fung. I am going to pin your testimony to the top. It is a great witness to the truth that God's ways are the best ways! Keep it up. Mary be with you!
Pin it Gabi👍🏾
Love this. I've been fasting for health reasons and vanity, but I always forget the spiritual merits of fasting. Thank you for this timely reminder!
I used to do that too but it's really not fasting it's dieting. They are so different.
This is just what I needed to hear, im a massage therapist who knows of all the benifits of fasting and yet I never do it except for fridays. This is a good time to practice what I preach to help save souls
AMEN! You got this. With and in Mary anything is possible.
Try the Wednesday & Friday ( recommend at Fatima & Medjugorje)and ask Our Lady for Grace’s to prevail and you will go from strength to strength! You’ll see! I’m putting you in my Eternal prayer basket. Courage!
@@Angelina6518 I started last week and so far so good by Gods grace. Ive had amazing results at my work with people coming up to me and asking me about the Faith. Keep strong and keep fasting we need to do this to save souls
@@Angelina6518 hey Angelina add me to the prayer list please. :) i was thinking of fasting before i went to sleep. i woke up and this was the first video I click. Wednesday and Friday it is.
@@Angelina6518 add me too😄 I just commented on fasting on Wed & Fri on bread n water like Our Lady requested to a previous post b4 I came to ur post. The trouble is I'm not very successful at putting it into practice - oh well onward & upwards🤞🙏🙏
I thank God for giving us YOU and this channel...You are a true blessing!!
Just in time as I am starting a long fast tomorrow.
YES! Our Lady is always timing things well! God bless you and Mary be with you always.
@@gabiafterhours Amen
I hope you are able to persist and receive many graces.
I'm starting toomrow
Whether you are religious or not. Fasting once a week and spending time remembering those that have nothing is humbling and reminds you of your luck in life
Wow...isn't it amazing how God provides us the words we need to hear through our brothers and sisters? Thank you as I stumbled across this video and it was exactly what I needed to hear!
Absolutely!!
I have been fasting on Wednesdays and Friday but sometimes, I work for 12h on those days. Well today, I was working. Anyway, I saw one of your fasting videos the night before and was really mentally preparing myself for today. My job is physical and sometimes, when I am working and fasting, I get bad headaches and a little shakey cuz I don't always have a chance to drink water. So today, I wasn't sure if I would be able to fast the way I wanted to fast. I went to noon mass and the Gospel and homely spoke about fasting! I thanked the Holy Spirit for giving me that extra confidence to push through because I was thinking about eating my soup for lunch. Thank you Gabe!
Is there a historical source that discusses fasting year round on Wednesday and Friday? I’m trying to find something for my family
I tried fasting over and over …..and failed UNTIL I ADDED SALT TO MY WATER……NOW I CAN GO A WHOLE DAY WITHOUT FOOD AND DON’T EVEN CARE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! P. S. I find drinking coffee causes more problems because of its acidic affects.
Thankyou for sharing, very helpful. 😊
Thanks for this video. I've been thinking a lot about fasting & this video was very encouraging. I have went back to observing meatless (vegetarian) Fridays & no deserts except on Sundays or birthdays. I have also given up all alcohol for about 5 years now. I offer these things up for the church, my sins & the sins of the world.
Wow! That was some video. Ways to fight the devil is my priority lately. I practice fasting but has to perfect it for penance. I learned something huge from listening to Fr.Mark Goring’s reading from the book “Mariam of Bethlehem” that, what hurts the devil most is humility and obedience. Remember, Satan fell due to his pride and envy towards the Creator and Savior of the world. I myself bought the book and is almost done with the book. A lot to learn from that book on a life pleasing to God. Thank you for this very important reminder. May God Bless you and all your listeners to be blessed through fasting!
This IF video is so good. It give us hunger on our temporal body towards to our hunger with God’s words.
I’m getting ready to start week 4 of one-meal-a-day fasting - incl all day Fri. but not at all on Sundays. So far it’s been all about my health. Thanks for the encouragement to add the spiritual dimension!
how is it going?
Thank you for this video. I struggle with emotional eating and binge eating. I told myself that fasting from food was off limits since it can trigger binge eating.
However, I am starting to believe it’s a lie I am telling myself . I truly believe fasting is powerful enough to allow God to deliver me from this strong addiction and dysfunctional behavior pattern. I’ve worked with therapists and come far but I believe what remains is a spiritual thing. I’ve also seen how my weakness with food spills into other areas where discipline is needed and where discomfort is inescapable. I will watch this video a few more times and pray about guidance on how my fasting can look for this and so many other special intentions.
Thank you for this video and for all the good content
Fasting is like a super power from God. Sugar and processed foods are addictions that play games with our minds. Start small and progress. I would recommend trying to go 3 days with no sugar and no simple carbs... that in itself will be very difficult. Then when you are no longer sugar dependent... fasting will be easier.
Excellent video!! 👏👏 Been waiting for this one. Great tips! 🙏 We need to fast more.
My friend! You are such a light. God bless you and the incredible work you are doing. Mary be with you always!!!!
Hmmm, it looks like the re- mix of the new age and catholicism is on the way...and it could swipe "a lot of the stars"
Wed and Fri fast, year round with proper sacramental/devotional life. It will kill vice and grow virtue. Dr Richards book Eat, Pray, Fast was helpful for me. Fiat!
16/8 is a great choice. This is a great video!
YES! I love your support. Thank you so much. 16/8 is a great way to start.
Yes, because when you leave Lent, I have never wanted to just dive into holiday food. It doesn’t feel good to be on this 40 day minimalist journey, and then on Sunday or a feast day, roll of the wagon. And, at work, we had to change the way we rewarded ourselves. As preschool teachers we would by those doughnuts and sweets for each other, but we started to rethink our choices, now we by oranges, flavored water, and skinny pop❤ We feel much better 💕
Thank you for this video, it was awesome ❤
Fasting helps me literally live in the Lord’s realm. So comforting and revealing especially during quiet time in God’s presence and prayer or reading God’s Word, many prayers and direction obtained by fasting. Alleluia ❤️🔥🕊✝️
Excellent video - and timely! Many thanks, and God bless your ministry!
Paul, thank you so much for taking the time to watch the video. God bless you and Mary be with you on this special day.
I've done spiritual fasting and I've done nutritional fasting. The idea of combining them gives me great great joy.
Thanks for this wonderful Video brother Gabriel.
May God , bless you abundantly
Dear Gabriel, thank you for making this video. I am a very health compromised person. I cannot fast. I was very encouraged to hear you talk about giving up the sweet stuff and that it counts as fasting. It was good to see you on air again.
I wait for Your videos so much
I can personally attest to the miracle of fasting. Great video.
Lord Jesus is my King and Savior ✝️
If u are craving for indulgence. Don't go for it. Instead offer it as sacrifice in atonement for your sins and for the souls in purgatory .. 🙏
Great advice! :)
This is one of the greatest videos on CZcams I have ever seen. I was meant to say it for several reasons, but thank you so much. God bless you.
New video!!! :D
Your my favorite Catholic teacher Gabi, next to Vigano of course. Thank you so much for the wonderful work you do, your faith, and devotion.🕊🌈
I like his videos too, but my favorite is dr Pitre Brant, fr Casey, Bishop Baron, fr Mike Schmidt and sensus fidelium with the exorcist Fr Chad Ripperger.
Love another exorcist called Vincent Lampert.
Awesome video - so relevant and I pray more people learn the miracle of this gift God has given us. I do intermittent fasting and low carb (not entirely keto - I eat a lot of beans) - and I have reversed my PCOS. Having watched your videos I have decided that from today I will pray 4 rosaries everyday. i have done a few 3 day water fasts before and I struggled a lot with the re-feeding after as I had some sort of subconscious mentality of needing to replace the food that I had lost. I know this was the darkness trying to derail me and undo all that was accomplished. I am currently praying to conceive and for my marriage to grow and blossom and be pleasing to God. Having prayed the 4 rosaries for the last 2 days my life has already started to change, my life inside myself and how I behave outside as well. I now feel joy and am able to let many things pass and release grudges that I would have previously kept in my heart. Thank God for the wonderful rosary and the gift of the miracle of the Mother of God as she intercedes for us.
Beautiful beautiful comment. Thank you for sharing. I will pray for your intentions!
I started fasting every other day for the salvation of souls recently but all your reasons in the beginning of this video are so concrete and give me so much motivation to continue-this is little suffering for great benefit. Thank you so much!
As a former boxer I understand the benefits of fasting to get ready for a fight. I do different spiritual fasting but my favorite and works for me is two slices of white or whole wheat bread with a cup of water for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I attend Mass and receive communion on those days. I start my fasting at 12 midnight and have a regular meal after 12 midnight. Salad with vegetables because you don't want to anything heavy when you go to bed. So for example
It's 12:00 am. My fasting has started. I go to bed and wake up at 6am I pray the Angelus and the rest of my Catholic morning prayers and the rosary and then I eat two slices of bread 🥪 and a cup of water. Then at 12 in the afternoon I pray the Angelus again accompany by the rosary and I'll read a chapter or two of the Gospels and then I eat two slices of bread and a cup of water. And then at 4 I'll do some other prayers, usually I do the Chaplet of divine mercy at 3 and by 4 I just eat two slices of bread and a cup of water again and that would be my last meal for the day until 12 00 midnight. And like I said I go to mass at 7:30 and receive communion that's really my last meal until midnight.
And that's how I became a saint😇😁🤣😂🤣. Just kidding 😉 lol. But if your beginner don't do it the way I do it. Start small like a portion of oatmeal or a cup of fruits with some water and have a regular lunch and dinner. You have to built yourself up little by little. God bless everyone
Thank you needed to see this ! God bless you !
Thank you for this video. Lately I’ve been struggling to get back into my fasting. This video has helped me remember the reasons why it’s good for me and how I can help God. By the way, for those who want to lose weight…. I tried fasting just for that reason and I never could do it, but when I add prayer to it… it’s so much easier!! I definitely receive the help from the Holy Spirit. God bless you all.
Thank you Jesus for speaking to us through our brother
Thank you for this video. It popped up in my recommendation. I just had a meal after 17 hours of skipping a meal. Will continue the fast until tomorrow morning.
Ever since the Plandemic began, I also began reducing the amount of food I was consuming. I can go several days with 1 meal a day, and sometimes, like on weekends I do 2 meals a day, no longer do I do 3 meals day. I guess I have been doing the Benedict option when it comes to meals, and now that my Brother is giving me room to cook my own meals, I can now do what I need to do. During the entire Plandemic, I have been inadvertently preparing for the day I was able to go to confession and recieve Jesus in Holy Communion...this happened last week, and today, 27th week in Ordinary Time, I was able to go to Mass...might not be so lucky next Sunday. But now, I will have better foundation for prayer and fasting.
another great banger, gabi
Perfect timing. Exactly what I need right now!!! . Important for all of us to unite our prayers and fasting to fight the “good fight” for Our Lord and Savior JC. 🙏 🕊 📿
YES! Now is the time.
I can attest to the power of fasting. I needed to forgive people that have hurt me seriously but despite praying and doing special pardon sessions; the anger would well up again. After I did a three day fast (I had a few light meals, it was not without eating throughout) the spirit of unforgiveness was broken and I managed to forgive. I recommend regular fasting to fellow Catholics. It brings a lot of good.
I’m impressed by your testimony!! I was recently told by a relative that I’m bitter about a past incident in my life and have to forgive and forget. The dismissive attitude upset me even more! Will definitely try to fast. 🧐
today ismy secound day od dry fasting. Keep thumbs for me for another two 😁😀
When I fast I have alot of sleep and deeper and deeper relax, I make my time as pleasurable as its possible and to have fun of simple things I do
I dont go to confession from a year and I feel better and better and I would go to confession again- not in "traditional"( I doubt it is real tradition or thing that Jesus want to do)way that I apologise for things- cause there was nothing I done in bad intention etc-
some years ago I was afraid of fasting cause after three hours of non eating I feel weak now I love fasting and it unlocks almost everything- one of the best method it is for better life in every spacies
I eat a lot psyhically and spiritually and in my youth and there I have no limit in positive sense
GOD bless you Gabi! Very inspirational video. Especially in these dark end times of the world when we incline to fasting, things what we see at this particular time will change. We will break each storm. Fasting helps us to examine ourselves in depth how far in each day we are going out of the love of God and his commandments.
When we fervently fast we will hear the inner voice of our GOD. Our Almighty JESUS CHRIST please change our solid heart so that we be humble and respectful to your will.
I just heard about intermediate fasting and have been looking into fasting in general. Thank you for this video!!
You’re a blessing Gabi!
Thinking about to do some fast lately!! And your video encouraged me!! Thank you so much!!
You can do it! Mary is with you!
Thank you, Gabi. You have put my heart at ease as I am unable to fast. I feel the intercession of Our Lady when I watch your videos! God bless you.
Thank you Gaby I love you like my brother God bless you always 🙏🌹♥️🕯
You are so welcome! God bless you and I appreciate your love!
Afro! 🤍🙏🏻
@@mashels9849 we’re have you been we miss you in Joe Nicosia rosary God bless ♥️🙏

Great video on intermittent fasting, thanks. Everyone should do it.
Incredible Vlog Gabriel! This has helped me So Much!
Many Thanks!
I have been fasting for a long time now for weigh purposes but now I am fasting for the grace of God. I offer it him for various reasons. It’s not easy but it’s important and beneficial in every sense of the word.
Well done Gabi! Praying for you and your ministry daily!
Joseph, that means so much to me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Mary be with you!
@@gabiafterhours hi I'm watching from Melbourne Australia. Do you have any Testimonies on prayer and fasting? Thank you kindly and God bless
Great video. I’m going to try to get back to 18-6, thanks. I totally agree with the idea that if with we have control over one set of passions (w/Gods help) it helps us have more discipline in other areas as well.
YOU CAN DO IT!
Ember days incorporate fasting and prayer and is a wonderful time to embrace these acts. Excellent video!
Victory belongs to Jesus, fasting is a body prayer. Apart from no eating food what another method can do when fasting.
Like giving up laziness or any addiction or procastination (I don't know how to spell the word). Something like that if you like.🙂
Procrastination dear. Great suggestions!
@@JayJay-yz5gb ur welcome ☺️
Thank you for this video Gabi, I always think that God wants us to be healthy through fasting. I'm underweight and has GERD problem, so I'm trying to: cut out sugar, eat real food aka delete processed food, and eat as much as my body need (not as much as my tongue need to be pleased). I often time think that what I do is not enough, and this video really answer that doubts and questions in my heart. Sending support for your channels from Indonesia, God bless you!
Helen. So good to hear from you. Yes. There are a lot of things you can cut out that will benefit you. Especially cut out processed sugars. You will notice a lot of great changes.
Gabi, you are the cutest... Love to watch you, hear you and the content is so blessed...
Thanks brother gabi for explaining us .God bless you 🙌🙌🙂🙏
Mary’s calling her kids to fast. I started doing this a number of months ago. Now I see it as an essential tool.
Thank you, Gabi, for this. I have tried one fasting and on the 3rd time, I have headaches and felt week. I will try the 16:8 intermittent fasting. May our Lord and Blessed Mother aid me in my intention.
Hello Gabi, your videos have influenced me greatly. I do not know how to express how much they helped me ease the challenges of my secret consecration. Your habitual praying of the Holy Rosary is most amirable. I am fixing my path to sanctification knowing that someone like you is ahead of the pack.
Thank you @Gabiafterhours for your very informative videos. Everyday at dinner, my kids (10,5 &3) want us to listen to any of your videos after which we discuss lessons learnt and make resolutions that are age appropriate. We love your videos and definitely you. God bless you abundantly.
Right on time.
I was low key discouraged to fast but I shall rise up with the help of God and do it.
I will start as fast as I receive permission in the confessional .
Ave Maria!
Wish I could give this video more than 1 like!
Thank you 🙏 Gabriel for this video. God bless you and your family.
Thank You ! I always felt guilty believing I was fasting for selfish reasons to lose a little weight 🤷♂️ I can cleanse my Body Mind and SOUL 🕊🎼🙏
I always wanted to fast regularly, this is very helpful. It seems that the norm in the church was not eating until the ninth hour (3 in the arternoon). Considering people woke up at the crack of dawn its a lot.
Thanks, Gabe! I’m going to pray and fast this week.
I'm fasting from chewing gum and chapstick for the past 3 years for my son's to receive the grace of true repentance for their sins and make a good confession.
Oh boy, all that lovely food you're showing me ......This is my 2nd day of not eating. It's certainly hard but I'm praying more...Cooking for my family ...HARD. Please strengthen me Jesus.
I fast on MONDAY WEDNESDAY AND FRIDAY
WATER AND BREAD BLESSED MOTHER SAID THIS
GAVE UP ALL SUGAR AND JUNK FOOD
TUESDAY,THURSDAY SATURDAY AND SUNDAY ONE MEAL AT 2PM
FOR SOUL'S AND GAVE TO THE BLESSED MOTHER TO USE.
SOME FASTING DAYS ARE HARDER THAN OTHERS.I LOST WEIGHT FEEL BETTER I NEED PRAYS.
PRAYING FOR ALL GOD'S CHILDREN
I slipped stopped fasting trying to fast again.it seems I am more hungry. I need help please pray for me.
I am praying asking GOD for help.
Great video. I started IF a few years ago after I dated for Lent. I managed for Lent so carried it over to daily. I do 16:8 but fall sometimes! And I try to do a 24 hour fast the first Wednesday of every month. Thanks so much for this! Brilliantly presented!
WOW!!!! It is so great to hear that Our Lady has us all trying IF. Thanks for sharing! Yes... first Wednesday is usually done in honor of St. Joseph. Very powerful. Thank you for your continued support :)!
@@gabiafterhours thank you. Yes I only became aware of the first Wednesday for St Joseph earlier this year when we done the consecration. I believe she helps us as times goes on and also makes us aware of what she wants by guiding us to various materials, like your videos etc. when we let her know that we want a real relationship with her! 🙏 Thank you for all the information you put out there!
Your videos are so well produced!
I appreciate you noticing. Mary be praised. She wants the best we can do. Mary be with you!!!
YOU ARE RIGHT & GREAT TEACHER OF FAITH FOR TRUTH OF GOD. YES fasting is great for JESUS CHRIST did it. I do it for I believe in its spiritual and physical rewards. Fasting for Jesus Christ gives me moral, physical, emotional ... wellbeing daily not on medicine. Yes Immaculate Mother Mary intercedes for all I need for Her son JESUS CHRIST reciprocates all the her love.
I have been fasted since this morning. I will be done in exactly 9 mns... I just started intermittent fasting and I am.so heavenly proud I can make it every time. To help me through it, I make sure I pray the rosary throughout the day and as Gaby said, I tie my fast to a special, dearest to my heart type of intention. I want the Lord to help me soooo bad that I give myself reasons not to give in when I am tempted. Thanks Gaby!!! Merci beaucoup.
its so weird yesterday when i started to fast, i thought i was going to get angry, i was so worried. Usually when im hungry, i get angry. but when i tell myself i offer this hunger for something greater, my mind stops me and i was calmer then i was before
Another great video Gabriel. Thank you. Your a true warrior for our blessed virgin and her request to pray rosary and fast.
With you all the way!!
You are lovely and inspiring!
Thank-you for everything you do, thank you for being a real, good catholic and showing the way to so many and thank you for saying yes to mother Mary each day!
May God continue to bless you and your loved ones each day, thanks for the good work!
It is useful, powerful and appreciated 🙏😇❤️ merry Christmas
I regularly watch Dr. Berg too! He has helped me stay on track with my physical health just as you have helped me stay on track with my spiritual health 🙏🏼💜
Thank you for this video! I’ve always wanted to fast but always fail. :(
May God bless you and everyone in this fasting journey. ♥️🙏🏼
I started intermittent fasting in April for weight loss. I've fallen off the wagon more times than I can count, but I'll keep going.
A great goal is to try and make it until 3 pm... the hour that Jesus died. This way when you are tempted you can know Our Lord also was suffering and His agony like yours will end at 3 pm.
@@gabiafterhours thank you. God bless
Keep trying. I tried in 2020 and failed every month, but this year since May I haven't fallen.
I do IF because I have hypothyroid, but I have decided to fast once a week for spiritual reasons.
I asked Mother Mary to pray for me and the cause of my failings disappeared
I'm a classic yoyo. Began cutting back after last dr visit. On work days I can do black coffee, a piece of fruit for lunch& dinner at night. Just need to be more consistent. Best wishes for your succes.
success. I mean I have 1 full meal in evening.
i did a 9 day fast. it was hard but it is doable!
Gabi never fails to inspire me 🔥 God bless!
Great video
I was watching this while eating a slice of pizza lol. Thank you brother Gabi, I’ll definitely try to fast more and correctly now.
Praise be to God. Fasting makes feasting more meaningful. God be with you!
LOVED this video content ... SO comprehensive ... great information ! The didache calls us to pray and fast on bread and water every Wed/Fri . In Canada we abstain every Friday of the year and I don't eat grain except the Blessed Sacrement so I am starting it today and will do it for 3 weeks ... water only (double what I would normally drink) blessed salt and that's it ! Wednesdays for the same 3 weeks I am going to abstain If all goes well I will then i will include the fast on Wednesdays also .... May God reward you !
Imperfect fasting is better than not fasting. Really liked and needed this video!
I used to watch your early videos and remember how devoted you were to the rosary. I have wondered where you were and today you turn up in my CZcams selections! God bless.
