It is simple actually, if you want to fast then go ahead!  But if you opted to eat, then do fast-eating.  Why?  You have to eat fast before someone catch you eating while others are on fast.   However, if you eat too fast, you can swallow air along with your food and end up with a case of having hiccups.   So better do your snacking or lunch somewhere else, away from your computer for a while and eat in peace.  The better you will enjoy your food without any worries that a Muslim colleague might show up any moment. 

 The old adage ” Eat like a king on breakfast, a prince at luch and a pauper at night” holds true.  For me, the trick is to eat heavy breakast so I won’t be tempted to snack in between.  It is tried and tested that the fullness of a heavy meal will last us until work is over. 

 If we will fast then well and good, if we opted to do fast -eating then we better be careful.  Really, the choice is ours….
