Ramadan, how to eat, exercise and sleep well whilst fasting.

Hi everyone,

Here's an interesting article on the BBC web site about how to survive fasting and getting on with life at the same time I find personal stories very interesting as its a glimpse into someone else's real life situation.

Here's the article and I'm sure that we can all relate to some of the problems faced during fasting:

I am in "fat burning mode" so I have no problems fasting 20:4.

I have now done two 44 hour fasts, and I find that, in the middle of a 44 hour fast, a few kilometres of not-very-brisk walking is enough.

Fasting 18:6, eating at night while holding down a day job, without first "getting into fat burning mode", would be a recipe for disaster... but they have the motivation or obligation to do it.

The trick would be to start Intermittent Fasting 16:8 well in advance - so then fasting 18:6 would be easier.
