A member asked:
I fast 16 hours eat 8. but for 8 hours i eat three meals. so should i keep my meals together so i don't start fasting or can they be spread out

Spread meals out.: Assuming you're not fasting for a religious reason, it would be wiser for you to spread your meals out more. Fasting for too long makes you more hungry, and you may tend to eat larger meals as a result.
