Quick answer

Weekend fasting works better with flexible targets than with a rigid plan that ruins social life.

Step by step

01 Pick a minimum fasting target.
02 Plan social meals.
03 Return to normal next day.

The longer answer

You can use a shorter fast on social days and still keep the habit alive. Track planned vs actual instead of calling weekends failures.

Turning one late dinner into a full reset spiral.
