Hi angiesback, I’m guessing everyone’s been quiet because this question has been asked a million times but the answer is, as always, it depends. There are tools, under the ‘How’ tab above, to help you work out your personal TDEE and 25% of your TDEE is what you should eat on a fast day. It doesn’t matter when or how you split it up, although I’d recommend you fast for the longest period you can manage in one go and have all your calories in one go for a more satisfying meal – but it’s up to you.

Good luck
