I don’t know anything about fibre tablets but a calorie is a calorie so i would add them.

RAther than take fibre tablets, why not improve the meals you eat. I find i don’t get hunger pangs. Eat more fibrous foods.

What does a typical fast day menu look like.

Here’s what i ate yesterday and i was fine. Though of course there’s also energy expenditure to think of and i don’t tend to exert myself too much on fast days.

BF: nescafe with milk and cup of miso (1tsp)

Lunch – starting early.
Salad – i was trying to do something tricky with the flavours but it didn’t quite work out to be anything special. The original recipe actually called for pomegranate syrup and i didn’t have any so i chose the next best thing i could think of.

78g red capscium
20g fresh squeezed pineapple juice
1tsp oliveoil
1tbsplemon juice
cumin seeds
garlic

Zarzuela fish stew 1 serve. 331 cals.
This included a small amount of fish, various other seafood, tomatoes and onion and some olive oil.

3pm: nescafe with milk (about 1/4 cup milk is what i put in my coffee.)

And that was the end of my calorie allowance. I didn’t really get any hunger pangs. I coped fine. Some of it is in our heads.

I should add: I’m currently 64kg, 165cm tall and 50 years old and female. trying to eat at 500 calories. This day was 511.

I haven’t suffered on any of my fast days.
