What's the longest you've ever gone without food? I've

Why the fuck are you fasting, you fat lard? You're fat, you need constant small adjustments to diet and lifestyle to fix it, not sudden abrupt stop to eating. Just look at your portions every day before a meal and remove 20%, that alone will get you far.

Fasting like a retard only leads to various issues, among others poisoning yourself when all the nasty shit stored in your fat from eating McDonalds and other trash gets all released into your body quickly due to the quick fat burn.

Not more than 24 hours, but being a poor student or simply forgetting to eat happened a few times. I lost 5 kilos from being already underweight in a year.

Fasting is really good for you. Everyone gets to that point after a day or two where they hit a wall and feel like shit for awhile, some people get headaches too. Once you get past that, say day 3 or so, you won't feel like shit anymore and you actually get a really nice feeling of being energized.

Just makes sure you drink water, and have a pinch of salt in your water once or twice a day.

Seriously though, fasting is something everyone should do once in awhile. Keep in mind, some of the more significant health benefits don't kick in until day 3-4, but even 24 hours is good for you.

>t. guy who has done a fair amount of 5+ day fasts

Are you a woman or just a faggot? Only retarded women fall for stupid fucking memes like fasting. Did you read it on some gay as fuck Buddhist new age magazine?

>i-it's good for you!!!
No it fucking isn't, your body is made for eating every day, if not eating makes you feel better, then that says a lot about the quality of your diet. I'd love to see an actual peer-reviewed medical study showing the benefits of fasting (let alone 5+ day fasts) but I know all I'd get are American "Buddhist" new age fags trying to pass off as medical professionals.

Jesus christ... the level of stupidity emanating from everything you say. You really have no idea how dumb you sound do you?

Do you have any idea how obvious it is that you're young as fuck, have no real knowledge about science or biology, but somehow think your 20 year old "common sense" makes you intelligent.

Lets start shall we:

>your body is made for eating every day

Wrong. Eating the same amount daily has only been a thing since the widespread adoption of agriculture. Before then, you know, for like 95% percent of our existence as a species we were hunter-gatherers, which if you have any familiarity with (I know you don't, fuckwit, don't worry about it), meant humans went through periods of feast/famine very regularly throughout the year as hunts went well, or didn't.

>poisoning yourself with the nasty shit stored

Dipshit. When you stop eating thats when your body clears out all the stuff that ALL of us have stuck in our digestive system. Fasting clears out toxins, it does the OPPOSITE of poisoning you.

>woman/faggot/buddhist

Which is it? This kind of lashing out at everyone just shows the kind of angry loser you are.

PS. None of the above. And basically every fucking religion in history has had some kind of fasting component. They are all retarded though right? Of course you're an atheist, you fucking cliche.

You know why they have them? Because self-denial and discipline are good for you regardless of health benefits. Maybe if you tried it it you wouldn't been such an irredeemable cocksucker.

>studies showing the benefits
I know you're lazy cockstain who can't look up shit for himself, but after fucking two minutes of searching:

http://www.johnshopkinshealthreview.com/issues/spring-summer-2016/articles/are-there-any-proven-benefits-to-fasting

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3680567/

tl;dr: you aren't intelligent, you don't know shit, your personality is garbage, fucking kill yourself

>tfw someone you know and regularly work with looks exactly like OP's pic
>he is super nice guy and I don't want to say anything mean in case he is in this thread
>tfw slowly watching his diet get worse over the past few weeks

I don't think I can help him, he's too old and far too gone, but god damn watching this slow motion train crash is just.. sad.

I heard a story about an Obese American lady who tried fasting to lose weight. She was losing weight but then died.

She died not from lack of calories, obviously there were plenty in her body. She died from lack of nutrients, like vitamins and minerals and proteins, which are essential to keeping the body functioning on a day to day basis.

Fasting for a few days might be OK, but don't try any longer than that otherwise you'll get very sick. You'll start to get scurvy and other diseases caused by vitamin or mineral deficiency.

There is also stories about people fasting for months and months and losing a bunch of weight and being in great health.

One retarded woman doing it without doctor's supervision, or without any knowledge of how it should be done is an anecdote, and doesn't mean anything.

The people who have water fasted for months and months successfully did it with doctor supervision, and occasional vitamin supplements + eating stuff like yeast once in awhile.

So you're right about the lack of nutrients killing her, not the fasting itself.

For anything less than say, 10 days, that doesn't matter. Water and a multivitamin once a day is enough for anyone.
