All I've seen/heard for the fasting days was black/herbal tea or water. I'm doing my first fast day now and enjoying a big mug of black coffee (although I prefer it with milk & sugar (never touch artificial sweeteners)!).

Well, according to MFP my BMR is 1764 kcals per day , and my basic daily needs (as a sedentary person) is 2210 kcals. What do I aim for on feast days? Do you need to eat back your exercise calories or just forget them?

I get that you are suppose to eat 500 kcals on the fast days for women, but what's the limit on your feast days - BMR or RDA? That's the bit that confuses me! Also, you should stick to no more than 60g protein on feast days, or is it 1g for each kg you weigh? CONFUSED, and I really want to try this!
