> I don't think it's possible for the average person to fast in any of the ways suggested here.

I'm quite an average person (or at least I'd like to think so) but for many years I did what that first guy from the article did, i.e. not having breakfast nor lunch, I was eating most of the calories for the day during dinner. Not sure how that has affected my health, at least now I'm back at having breakfast again, but the culture of "three big meals a day" is certainly not the be-all and end-all of nutrition.

I also cannot eat meat before 4 or 5 PM, I can't understand how people can have things like English breakfast so early in the morning. I also love fruits, if it were to me I'd eat fruits all day, every day.
