Does anybody not use their calorie allowance and just do a straight 24 hr total fast with only zero calorie fluids like water and green tea allowed etc ?

Hi QPR

Yes quite a few do a water fast or a zero cal drinks fast. Worth trying, and if you find it not too hard you then have a choice and can go back to the 5/600 style on days that are too much struggle.

Not sure what the split of people doing partial:total calorie restriction is, but it is almost certain that the majority of people eat something on fasting days.
I do zero cals, easier and denial free safe for me.
And BTW, for zero cals, 24 hours does not apply – it is more like 36 hours – dependent on the time of the evening meal and the time of the next breakfast.
e.g. I last ate at 8pm on Thursday, fasting today – Friday – and am aiming, nay, salivating, for an 8am breakfast on Saturday – so for me, a 36 hour fast.
