I. Erev Yom Kippur
It is a Missvah to eat well Erev Yom Kippur. One who eats a big meal at this time, it is considered as if he fasted for that day as well, making it two consecutive days of fasting. This meal is called Se'udah HaMafseket.
Se'udah HaMafseket: The final meal before Yom Kippur begins must be completed before sunset, at which time the fast and all halakhot of the day begin. If one completes this meal early it is considered an early acceptance of the fast unless the person stated (or specifically thought) that he/she does not wish to accept the fast yet. When one accepts the fast early, it is understood that all the laws of Yom Kippur take effect for that individual at that time.
