Hi Motherweary,
the best results for cleansing and healing while fasting are for those who rest the most, after all it wasn't by accident that the early Hygienists (and those that came after them) referred to the fast as "the rest cure", which meant resting physically, mentally, and physiologically; but for the most part these fasters were in a diseased state, either chronically or acutely, and needed to rest as much as possible to utilize all of their energies for recovery.
Cleansing and healing will still take place, despite your activity, but will be reduced slightly in proportion to your level of activity.
Another side issue is that your food reserves will not last quite as long if active than if resting, and where again this depends on the amount of physical activity that is done. However, as you are not a farmhand or someone involved in heavy physical labor, then the benefits that would have accrued while in total rest should only be diminished slightly. It is definitely more beneficial for you that your walk is broken, with a rest-break in between.
My diet consists of a "brunch", so nothing for breakfast at that traditional time, and where I would eat fruit (between 12 to 2.00pm usually) and then have a main meal in the evening between 6.00pm and 7.00pm or whenever I feel hungry; hunger/appetite dictates WHEN exactly.
Evening will be a starch meal one day and then a protein meal the next: for example.........a large raw salad with 2 to 3 slices of lightly toasted/buttered wholewheat bread (starch) OR a large raw salad with a whole ripe avocado (protein). The large raw salad I replace with lightly steamed vegetables that fills the whole plate usually and where I vary the starch/protein foods as well. There are many other variations but I make sure that I combine my foods correctly to ensure efficient digestion and with no putrefaction/fermentation that would occur otherwise.
Proper food combining and eating only when I have a demand for food are the main reasons why I am toxemic-free.
Here is a link for IF but it does talk of being able to eat "anything", as most of the IF sites state, and with which I would not agree, but useful reading all the same.
