My day hasn't even started and work looms in front of me. I feel totally wiped out after yom tov.

I am not sure how I will get through work today while fasting, and I (bh) have no reasons to get a heter not to fast.

Can anyone relate?

I know people who don’t fast on tzom gedalia especially women. (The heter might be that it’s so close to YK) Someone once ate in public on this day and he was asked why don’t you fast? His reply: if I’d be the one to die, I don’t think Gedalia would fast for me. Confused

When I was pg or still had any kids <2, I didn't fast the short fasts.

Now that neither applies, chatzos is my friend...
