Then you aren't fasting.

Agree that is what I just found out.

2 meals a day, 500 cals each, with either a piece of fruit or boiled eggs as snack.

Are you sure you are really eating 2 meals at 500 calories every day? At 1,100 calories a day you should be losing a lot of weight. Something is off here.

I am using a meal prep company and that and the meals, average 450 to 495 each. So add in a piece of fruit or egg, drink water and coffee. I feel pretty confident that I am under 1200 a day.
this is why I posted.

Adding another 500 calories to your diet will not make you lose weight quicker. What are you eating?

1. how many days in the row is this recommended?
2. If you mess up, do you restart the next day?

How many days is what recommended? You should aim for a solid diet every day. It's not a one or two day thing, and the weight is gone like magic.

Of course, if you have one bad day you should keep going. I do a 24 hour fast once a week. The rest of the week I try to stay under 1,800 calories (most days I'm around 1,200, but sometimes I have a bad day). My diet is as low in carbs as possible, without making myself miserable. I've lost 20 pounds in 2 months doing this. There is something you are leaving off.

thanks for your input
