| 0:00.0 | When you come to fasting, you think of one thing. |
| 0:02.4 | You think of hunger. |
| 0:03.6 | And unfortunately, that's sometimes not the only thing that we experience as a side |
| 0:08.9 | effect for fasting. |
| 0:10.3 | But I think most people will find that even though there are some other things that are |
