So you don't eat anything at all for the whole day? Or is it something like nuts?
What about dairy products (like milk) etc?
No calories at all, just drink water when we're thirsty.
I've found it has worked wonders for resetting my relationship with hunger; I feel I'm far less susceptible to boredom hunger in the few days immediately after the fast, something I'm hoping will progressively improve further.
Honestly, we haven't found it that hard at all. The first two weeks were a bit of a struggle just because you aren't used to going that long without food, but now it's just the day we don't eat and we don't really pay it much attention past that.
I don't eat breakfast per se, just a protein shake but I found it difficult to cut out for a number of reasons.
A couple of months ago my wife and I started doing a weekly 24h fast on Sundays from breakfast Sunday to breakfast Monday. The first couple of times it was a bit of struggle but now we don't really notice anymore.
Whatever fits your lifestyle is the way to go, otherwise it's always going to be a struggle to maintain.
