Had my dinner on Tuesday evening, fasted on Wednesday (500 cal dinner), fasted today Thursday (500 cal meal). Feel okish. Do I break the fast tomorrow morning and eat normal (1950 cals TDEE)? Dont understand all the talk of 16/8

Ignore the talk of 16:8 if you want, it is just an extra add on or an alternative way of doing IF.

You are doing it right, you eat normally tomorrow. Remember there is no need to do your days together, I never have, I do Mondays and Thurdays as it suits me, but any two days are fine.

Be prepared for the hunger monster to be awoken once you have breakfast tomorrow.

Thanks Frenchfancy, needed that reassurance. Saw the documentary and thought it seemed straightforward but started looking at these messages and wondered if I was doing it right. Ok so now just waiting for those pounds to melt away.
