First time doing full fasting got me real thirsty. I truly respect the Muslims who can fast for 1 whole month. If I just lie in bed doing nothing maybe I can continue, but I cannot, especially after doing workouts. Salute to all my athlete friends!#fasting #selamatberpuasa #breakfast #bulanpuasa #fastingishard
