Exactly the same for me. I just ate nothing mon, wes, Fri. I did light exercise on those days, and felt fine. It was easy to go a whole day without eating, but it was way harder to eat breakfast and then try to avoid lunch and dinner. Something in me just woke up when it got a little food and wouldn't stop until I ate.

I did once fast for 7 days to see what it was like but I don't recommend that because it seemed to put my digestive system into hibernation and was hard to ressurect
