How many calories while rolling 48s?

Hey guys so normally I do Omad and have around 1500-1600 cals a day. This week I want to try out consecutive 48 hour fasts and I don’t know whether to eat 1500cal or 3000cal for my meal. I’m thinking 3000cal but I want to know what you guys think.

Answer

Depends on your goals. But usually with IF, you’re not supposed to compensate for the meal you don’t eat.

You’re supposed to eat mindfully to satiety during your meal(s) and if you find the resulting calorie intake too low (e.g: let’s say you would really like 3000 calories that day, but you can’t eat more than 1500 in a single sitting), you should consider increasing your feasting window and fit a snack and/or maybe another meal instead of forcing yourself to eat a single bigger meal.

Answer

If you eat 3000 calories in a short amount of time after a 48 hour fast you will probably get diarrhea and feel like shit for hours afterwards. Eat a normal sized OMAD meal, or whatever makes you feel full, with lots of nutrients (limit processed stuff). Your body will get the other calories it needs from your fat stores.
