Best Meals Before a 24-Hour Fast

Your pre-fast meal should be balanced, high in healthy fats and protein, and include complex carbohydrates and fiber to maintain satiety and stable blood sugar. 1. Protein + Healthy Fats + Fiber-Rich Carbs Meal: β€’ Example: Grilled salmon with quinoa and roasted vegetables (broccoli, carrots, and bell peppers) drizzled with olive oil. β€’ Why? Protein and healthy fats keep you full, fiber prevents blood sugar spikes.

2. Slow-Digesting Carbohydrates Meal: β€’ Example: A bowl of steel-cut oats with chia seeds, almonds, and a spoonful of almond butter. β€’ Why? Complex carbs help sustain energy levels for longer. 3. Healthy Fats and Protein Meal: β€’ Example: Scrambled eggs with avocado, sautΓ©ed spinach, and whole-grain toast. β€’ Why? Fats from avocado and eggs support long-lasting satiety. 4. Hydration Boosting Meal: β€’ Example: A smoothie with Greek yogurt, berries, spinach, flaxseeds, and coconut water. β€’ Why? Keeps you hydrated and provides essential micronutrients.

Best Meals to Break a 24-Hour Fast

Breaking a long fast requires gentle, easy-to-digest foods to prevent bloating, discomfort, or a blood sugar spike. 1. Light, Digestive-Friendly Starter: β€’ Example: Bone broth or vegetable broth. β€’ Why? Replenishes electrolytes and preps the digestive system. 2. Small Protein & Fat-Rich Meal: β€’ Example: Scrambled eggs with avocado and a handful of nuts. β€’ Why? Easy to digest, prevents blood sugar spikes. 3. Fermented Foods (for Gut Health): β€’ Example: Greek yogurt with honey and blueberries. β€’ Why? Supports gut bacteria and digestion. 4. Nutrient-Dense Whole Meal: β€’ Example: Grilled chicken with steamed vegetables and sweet potatoes. β€’ Why? Replenishes nutrients, provides balanced macros. 5. Hydration-Focused Foods: β€’ Example: A bowl of watermelon, cucumber, and leafy greens. β€’ Why? Helps rehydrate the body after fasting.

Tips for Breaking the Fast: β€’ Start with small portions and increase gradually. β€’ Avoid processed foods or high-sugar meals right away. β€’ Drink plenty of water or herbal teas to aid digestion.

Hey Jackie.

Here are a few options under 50 calories: 1. Glucose Tablets – One tablet typically has around 15 calories and provides a quick sugar boost. 2. Half a Teaspoon of Honey – About 10-15 calories and easily absorbed. 3. A Small Sugar Cube – Around 10-20 calories and dissolves quickly. 4. A Few Sips of Orange or Apple Juice – About 1-2 ounces (20-30 calories) can stabilize sugar levels. 5. A Small Hard Candy (Like a Peppermint or Lifesaver) – Typically around 15-25 calories. 6. Five to Six Raisins – About 20-30 calories and provides natural sugar.

Good morning team, you are in the midst of something powerful! A 24-hour fast isn’t just about discipline it’s about tapping into your inner strength, resetting your body, and proving to yourself that you are capable of more than you think.

Every moment you push through, you’re fueling your resilience. Every hunger cue you overcome is a reminder that you are in control, not the other way around. Stay hydrated, stay positive, and remember why you started. This challenge is temporary, but the benefits mental clarity, physical renewal, and a sense of accomplishment will last far beyond these 24 hours.

You’ve got this! One hour, one mindset shift, one deep breath at a time. Keep going, and let’s finish strong together!
