Anyone fast Saturday and Sunday? I think I may find it a bit easier. Just due to the fact the my day doesn't start as early. Also i share an office space with seven people and it's super hard to sit in and have to smell all the food during our lunch break as I find it best for me to save all 500 calories to have at dinner with my family. Any thoughts or experiences would be appreciated.

    I prefer fasting over the weekends but it should be on alternate days.I prefer having one 500 meal as well rather then spreading it throughout the day.I am working out(interval training) 3 days a week and some light exercise 2days and 2 rest days.

    The advice not to do the fast days consecutively got dropped after the first print run of the book. Now it's simply any two days a week.

    Personally I would hate to do them consecutively but it's a personal choice.

    You can pick and choose your fast days to fit your life. My fast are Monday and Thursday. But in may I did a few weekend fasts and a few b2b just because of my other plans.
