Defining fasting day

I'm on my second week of 5:2 and it occurred to me I would really prefer to have my fasting day last from 6pm to 6pm, or something like that. Does anyone do that?

On my fasting days I do 7 pm or so until the next day at 5 pm or so and then I don't have anything else until the next morning at 7 am -ish. I hope this helps.0

Hi Natalie, I think you can do pretty much what works for you!! 18:6 or 14:8.... 12:12 each day, or 5:2 refers to 5 days regular eating and 2 at lower calorie - usually 500-600 cals no more on those two days. You choose when you want to start and end, some people like doing both kinds of fasting at same time, I find it too difficult and prefer the 5:2 method, good luck!0

I already decided to make it a normal day - I end up eating only 500 cal for much longer than 24 hours. Like today was the day after my fasting day and I didn’t end up eating until 2 pm. I’m rarely hungry in the morning anyway. I’m on my second week, and I like this. Only logging twice a week is a bonus!0
