Fasting

I drink coffee with unsweetened soy milk first thing in the morning. Is that when I need to end my fast or do I end it with my first meal?

    I would consider it ended with the first food I ate. But it's your fast, do it how you want and however works for you. You'll get all kinds of people trying to dictate what does or doesn't constitute a fast. My best advice? Ignore them.

    Unless you have some outside rules involved eg medical fasting is water only, not unsweetened soy milk or religious fasting rules like Ramadan - then decide for yourself what you want to do.

    What is the aim of the fasting for you?

    Coffee then breakfast, yeah, it doesn't really matter much. Most of the benefits of IF and what it does has been done while you were sleeping anyway.
