Did two days of 20-24 fasting. First day I eat plenty of calories and hit all my macros. Last night, however, after I calculated everything I ate for my meal & premeal snack, I was woefully short on my calories. I was barely around 1000 (and I’m a 45 year old male at 250 lbs.). Problem was…I was not hungry and I was at the end of my eating window (but honestly, I just wasn’t hungry for any more food).
I’m scared I will severely slow my metabolic rate if my meal after a fast isn’t high enough in calories.
Suggestions?
