Hunger is an interesting phenomenon. You'd think that you would just get hungrier the longer you go with out food but it doesn't work that way. Hunger comes in waves, possibly related to your usual mealtimes. You can actually train your stomach to expect less food. I feel like I could go maybe 3-4 days and might even feel better for it. In modern western society people tend to eat out of habit, regardless of whether they're actually hungry.

i'd have to be sated before starting but definitely 3 days maybe more. i don't think i'd physically be hurting until the 6th day. but i fast so witholding food isn't irregular for me

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

I wouldn’t even last a day, I’d feel sick after missing the first meal lol

[Nikki1989]

A few days, easily. I don't eat much, one small meal a day on most days.

So, here I am on Girls Ask Guys, sharing my love for all things culinary and answering your burning questions. Without food, but with water? Honestly, I'm a bit of a foodie, so the thought alone makes me a bit anxious. I reckon I could last maybe 24 hours max before my mood starts to take a dive. The love for Italian and Japanese cuisine doesn't just feed my belly, but my soul too! After a day, I'd definitely start missing the comforting embrace of a good pasta or the precise elegance of sushi 🍣🍝.

I somewhat occasionally fast for religious reasons and I can go about 2-3 days without food before it becomes the pain/starvation becomes nearly unbearable.

Well, I wandered in the wilderness for 40 days, and after hydrating at the end, only weighed 50 pounds

[Sevenpointfive]

[NathanDavis]

72hrs. When my father passed away it hit me so hard I didn't eat for 3 days. I didn't even have any desire to. I didn't feel sick, or maybe my mind was just too occupied to notice.

[Extraterrestrial1999]

Sorry for your loss.

[Opinion Owner]

Thanks, man, but that was 22 years. ago. Obviously, I'll never be over it. But it isn't fresh.

[DJB72]

I've done ten days fasts in the past but that's a long time ago

[JacobJordan]

Rule of 3. 3 minutes without air, 3 days without water, 3 weeks without food.

[dreamstar72]

I went without real food for a months and half, but of course I was hooked up to IVs.

[DrPepper12]

Rule of three: 3 minutes without oxygen, 3 days without water, 3 weeks without food.

[Staximus]

I used to be able to not eat for 24 hours and feel fine, now I start to get dizzy

[noohair]

I don't eat carbs so I am at one meal a day. Fasting is easy.
