How far apart should I leave fast days?

Completely new to this, first fast day today. Not doing too badly, bit tired, grumpy, headachey, but apart from that ok. Was thinking of fasting on Monday and Wednesday next week, needs to fit in with everything else, ie going out a week tonight. Just wanted to check do I need to do another fast between now and Monday as would have to be Saturday if I did, which would four fast days in a week which I cannot help thinking would be too much.

I'm just starting too. Last week I did Monday and Thursday, this week Monday and Wednesday to fit in with meals out etc.

Monday and Wednesday next week sounds fine, given that you're just getting started.

Thanks that is my plan. Have managed today so far, although v hungry. Bit of the day to go, may need some more diet coke and black tea.
