      It promotes a calorie deficit because it would be difficult to stuff your face with an entire day’s worth of calories in a matter of 1-2 meals. Unless you derp by eating certain fast food and processed sweets/desserts, then yeah, easily achievable to surpass your maintenance calories.

      The point of intermittent fasting is that during the fast your metabolism increases and your body enters partial ketosis which is beneficial for healing and general well being.
