The FastDay Forum

Hi Everyone,

I watched the Horizon program online last week and was totally inspired to change to this way of life.

My one simple question is whether the health benefits are any greater by fasting completely for 24 hours, or whether it makes any difference if the fast day calories are consumed say in 3 small meals throughout the day? I'm pretty sure I can do either of these, and my preference is to fast completely from dinner yesterday until dinner today, but I was just wondering if this is more beneficial or not?

Hope I'm not repeating a previous topic!

Thanks,
Tony

I'd like to know that too - I have been on the diet for three months, and have varied small breakfast - small lunch - dinner, to dinner only, and today (and last week) brunch and dinner.

Good luck with today Tony!

Thanks Swedey for your reply. You have done really well so far, so you must be doing something right I guess!

Hi tony,
The consensus on here seems to be that the strategy of having small meals through the day triggers your hunger more. I started out on 2 mini meals and one main meal, largely because I was afraid of feeling hungry if I skipped breakfast. I now have one bowl of home-made soup (70 ish cals) for a late lunch, then most of my calories for dinner.
There is no "right" way to do this Way of Eating, but that's what works for me.
Good Luck today
