I never quite understood the procedure around fasting before the eucharist. I go to mass at 11on sundays. Is it enough that I don't have breakfast before I go or should I be fasting from before dinner on saturday night?

Canon Law:
Can. 919 §1 Whoever is to receive the blessed Eucharist is to abstain for at least [b]one hour before holy communion[/b] from all food and drink, with the sole exception of water and medicine.
