Through my forties I regularly fasted for a day or more at a time. Now, at the end of my sixties, I just feel terrible if I don’t eat something every day. I do stop eating by about six in the evening. I eat a breakfast of toast and a fruit smoothie at eight in the morning. During the day, I don’t snack, but I eat a light lunch at noon and then a good dinner at five. I feel better if I am slightly hungry most of the time.
