Ash Wednesday and Good Friday are obligatory days of fasting and abstinence for
Catholics. In addition, Fridays during Lent are obligatory days of abstinence.
The norms on fasting are obligatory from age 18 until age 59. When fasting, a person
is permitted to eat one full meal, as well as two smaller meals that together are not
equal to a full meal.
If possible, the fast on Good Friday is continued until the Easter Vigil (on Holy Satur-
day night) as the "paschal fast" to honor the suffering and death of the Lord Jesus,
and to prepare ourselves to share more fully and to celebrate more readily his Resur-
rection.
