I will be fasting for 40 days on bread and water starting ash wednsday. How do I get prepared for this as it is the first time?

Why would you fast on Bread and Water, my mother used to scare me with that, she said it was the usual jail fare and that's where I would go, if I don't behave myself with the boys.
Seriously if you just go on Bread and Water, you could get extremely sick, the body needs protein, your heart needs to be exercised, its a muscle. If you want to go on that kind of fasting for that amount of time, you need to be under a doctors care and should be monitored weekly.

?? For 40 days ???
Well at least you won't have the problem of diarrhoea like one of your colleagues asked a few minutes ago.
