Hi there,
I've just began a combination of the 5.2 & 8 hour Fasting diets. I am consuming 500 cals on Mon & Thurs, but only consuming the calories between 11am-7pm. The other days I am following the food plans for the 8 hour diet (which mean I am eating around 1600-1700 cals).
Does anyone know whether taking vitamins at 8am or 9am will be considered breaking the fast, or should I wait until I eat (as I guess taking with food is better anyway)? It's just that I really tend to forget if I don't take them as soon as I wake.
Hope one of you lovely people know !!
Take care.

I wouldn't consider it breaking your fast. Take them when you think about it.0
