Starving For Attention Day1 - 5/19/2008

How long can a person go without eating???
Article Taken From http://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Body-and-Soul/Question53640.html

At the risk of being shot down in flames, I think the old 40 days and 40 nights for a fast is a realistic an non-life threatening time. However, you will die pretty quickly if you don't drink water. The inmates in Nazi concentration camps lasted through amazing cruelty and denial of nourishment for, in some cases, years. However their bodies were forever changed by the experience, and many lived on hope and determination to the point of liberation and then soon expired as they were unable to restart their metabolisms.

If you just stop eating then your body will soon spot this and change into starvation mode. This means that it will conserve every scrap of energy bearing tissue and material to keep you going. First of all the sub-cutaneous fat gets used up then muscle gets turned into energy. Your brain tells you to sleep lots and not move around much and you experience delirium making rational thought more difficult. Those that have experienced this tell me that the hunger lasts only a short while and once the body goes into starvation mode hunger is absent and even the general desire for food goes away.

Needless to say, no-one should consider starving themself, in this country there is no reason for this and it is NOT a quick way to loose weight or girth. Weight loss can only be achieved in a healthy way by gradually reducing food intake whilst maintaining proper nourishment and gradually increasing exercise, and being prepared to change these habits for the remainder of your life.

Beyounce looks mad sexy. Okay so I have some very biast views on fasting and these kinds of experiments. I will hold my tongue because it's not my business to fight what you are doing but I do know the damage it will do to your body and the havoc that will come if you don't break the fast correctly. You private messaged me - we can keep in touch if you need support while going through this... Ps Send Beyounce and her thighs my way, I'll lick them dry lol

Actually I would Love for you to share Your views. As long as you do it as my friend and not just someone Judging me. And as long as you know I am doing this Experiment Either way, But I would love to have You share your Honest Thoughts.

I've Been Doing a lot of Research on Fasting, and learned That While the body Breaks Down Your Muscle and fat tissue it also rebuild it, and In a sense it Revitalizes your body.

This doesn't take place Over Large periods of time. But in The case Of fasting, for a short period of time,(short meaning not as a life long problem) Your body Knows you're fasting, And not starving because of the lack of food.

Good point. I'm glad we have this comment tag public so people can learn from it. Fasting to one may mean a few days or a week but I have seen people go to the extreme and go months. Some actually claim to be breatharians, living on AIR alone ... for years?!? This is something I find hard to believe. I'm glad this isn't a new trend, could you imagine?

[BlogFag]

LoL Me too.. I don't see how they can live on AIR for that long..LoL my plan is to go 4 weeks tops..But if i drop off before that I'm fine with it..30 days is only "what I'm shooting for"

[BlogFag]

I will for sure. Keep in mind the Body Knows the difference Between Starving and fasting. And reacts Differently.But for sure Thanks for the tips On Easing back into food. I'm Sure I'll Just wanna sit down and Eat a HUGE meal.LOL
