When to worry about refeeding issues?

Hey y’all, like the title says, I’m wondering if there is a general “length” of an extended fast that one can’t just eat a regular meal to break the fast, instead of easing back in? 3 days? 4? 5? 7? Thank you!

Answer

I did four days and just had a regular meal that included onion rings and half a hoagie sandwich with burger meat and all the trimmings. I feel a bit bloated…

The nice thing about a long fast is that you are not feeling like starving so it is easy to ease up with the food.
