And so dem boys does fast during Lent, Ramadan and Navatri. Dem boys does try fuh keep up with de traditions of dem religions. Dem boys system get attuned to de fasting. So dem boys does hardly get any major side effects. Sometimes, dem boys does feel hungry when dem fasting but after a few days dem boys does get accustomed to it.

But still dem boys does be careful when dem breaking dem fast. Dem boys does eat light and drink nuff liquids so as to not put de system under too much strain when dem breaking de fast. And dem boys don’t feel any effects of de fasting because of dat.  But de odder day dem boys tek a peep pun some men wah breaking dem fast. Dem chaps eat loud and lavish. If yuh see dem man plate when dem breaking fast. Is nuff food and nuff fancy food dem eating.
