Was du hier in den H?nden h?ltst, ist ein Buch. Ein Tagebuch. Ein Fastentagebuch.Und wie Tagebcher das so an sich haben, ist es ein sehr pers?nliches Buch, in dem ich meine 48 Tage w?hrende Fastenzeit im Jahr 2018 festgehalten habe. Mit allen Hintergrnden, H?hen, Tiefen, Erfolgserlebnissen und Versuchungen.Wie kam es dazu?Nun, ich lebte bereits gute 8 Jahre auf der Insel und da wir grunds?tzlich an der Kultur, den Traditionen, Gepflogenheiten und ?Riten unserer ?Gastgeber - den Kretern C interessiert sind, mussten wir auch mal im Selbstversuch ran. Ich habe mich dafr gerne ?geopfert, denn davon hatte ich schon so lange geredet C da musste ich jetzt mal ein bisschen ?Butter bei die Fische geben.Also ran an den Speck! Wobei C um allen Bedenken vorzugreifen: ich habe in den 48 Tagen meines griechisch-orthodoxen Fastens kein Gramm abgenommen, aber darum ging es ja auch nun mal gar nicht. Nur halt um das ?Verkneifen einiger Dinge. Und das war manchmal schwer. Nicht immer, da meine Ern?hrungsgewohnheiten auch normalerweise fast fastenkompatibel sind. Aber halt nur fast......Das 48 Tage w?hrende griechisch-orthodoxe Fasten ist grunds?tzlich bestimmt von folgenden Regeln:keine Eierkeine Milchproduktekein Fleischkein Fisch mit BlutLiest sich erst mal grausam, ist aber gar nicht so schlimm, denn erlaubt sind:S?igkeiten (wenn nicht Milchprodukte, logo.... - also Schoki und Buttercreme sind tabu!)Meeresfrchte (Garnelen, Oktopus, Muscheln & Co.)Obst und (Wild-) GemseHlsenfrchte (allen voran meine hei?geliebten Lupinen!)?l und Brot (letztere Beide leider nicht mehr in der hard-core Karwoche.... DAS war hart!)AlkoholMeine haupts?chlichen Einschr?nkungen bestanden im ?Entzug von Eiern, Fleisch und vor allem Milchprodukten C dafr habe ich, sehr ungew?hnlich fr mich, nach 1-2 Wochen einen schieren Hei?hunger auf S?kram entwickelt C daher auch meine Donut-Marmeladen-Frhstcke, wo ich doch eigentlich eher der Leberwurstfraktion zuzuordnen bin....Fakt ist: Fasten macht etwas mit Dir. Und mit deinem K?rper. Und deiner Selbstbeherrschung....Vor allem, wenn man auch mal wieder bei Haris oder in einem anderen Kafenion sitzt und die leckersten ?Mezedes kredenzt bekommt. Na gut, Tomaten und Grkchen gehen immer, aber den Rest muss man sich halt meist verkneifen. Um so schlimmer, wenn ein es immer und berall mit jedem gutmeinender Wassilis einen abfttern will. Auf meine Erwiderung ?neee, Wassili, heute bitte kein Hhnchen, ich faste doch! kam dann nach 3 Tagen irgendwann mal die Erwiderung: ?machst du das echt? Also jetzt bis Ostern? Wie lange ist das denn dann noch? Antwort: ?Jetzt noch 45 Tage! Ein betroffenes Gesicht, ein nachdenkliches ?sich-am-Kopf-kratzen und schon war Wassili wieder weg, hatte er doch noch Schnecken zu Hause. Und die sind absolut fastenkompatibel! Vermutlich berflssig zu sagen, dass ich seit 2017 fast keine Schnecken mehr gegessen habe, da ich in besagtem Jahr derma?en damit abgefttert wurde, dass es auch mir irgendwann mal genug war. Aber sehr sehr lieb gemeint und auch sehr lecker C aber halt nicht jeden Tag......Eines meiner Fasten-Highlights sind und waren jedenfalls Kichererbsen mit Garnelen C auch diese fanden am Nachbartisch bei Haris anklang und wollten in der Kche bestellt werden. Gab es aber nicht auf der Tageskarte C nur bei uns. Dafr allerdings in so rauhen Mengen, dass auch fr den Nachbartisch was drin war C so kommt man mal wieder mit Landsleuten ins Gespr?ch.....Wie gesagt, es war eine sehr interessante und intensive Zeit und ich berlege mir durchaus, die vor?sterliche Fastenzeit mal wieder durchzustehen. Nur vielleicht nicht gleich in diesem Jahr....
