Longest you've gone without eating?

[JBuk]

depends on what you class as eating, i once went a whole year eating nothing but an apple and an orange a day and one bowl of all bran on a Wednesday night.

I would say that is pretty much what the definition of eating is, ulness you blended them and drank instead

 

[LOAM]

I meant more as in a meal as oppose to chewing something

 

[Martins]

Oh well, if we're not counting soup then... 4 weeks.

Jaw wired = awful, honestly I'd FAR rather break a limb than go through that again.

 

[jlss]

was around 4 months but quite remember the exact amount, was a long time ago

 

[Kevin Clark]

5 days when I had tonsillitis and gastroenteritis both at the same time. I lost 2 stone in 3 weeks and have never felt so ill.

5 days was the maximum, when I first lived on my own I didn't budget very well. I had to drink water for the whole duration. It did teach my one lesson though.. I'd never ever want to be in that state again. I think I tried to make flat bread with water and flour, this ended up in a cardboard like thing.. I did eat in on the 3rd day.

Thankfully I didn't do much besides going to college and evening work. When I got paid on that Friday I ordered a pizza and wedges from Papa Johns I couldn't even eat more than 2 slices, I threw up and felt horrible, I thought I was going to pass out. I left it for a few hours, then ate it again. Was the best pizza I ever had..

You start noticing some strange stuff when you don't eat. I think if your reasonably chubby you can go for a year without food, as long as you have vitamins etc. This was a study that was highlighted on a BBC horizon on body weight. So don't try it!

 

[Rroff]

About 16 hours.

 

[aslco]

i only have 1 grain of rice a day

 

[Belmit]

Ten days, to see what would happen. Basically nothing. Didn't lose any weight because my body went into survival mode, and I was just hungry the whole time unsurprisingly. Once I reached a certain level of hunger it didn't get any worse. I imagine a few days down the road I would have started getting some symptoms but at that point it didn't seem worth it.

 

[Buffman]

Prob the longest I've slept so I'd guess around 12-14 hours. Apart from sleeping maybe six hours tops =/.

You start noticing some strange stuff when you don't eat.

No you don't. The only thing you feel is tired. You feel drained all the time, during working hours it's hard to concentrate for more than about 20 minutes.

That's about it.

 

[Tefal]

for a few months this year i lived on fortisips alone :/

lost loads of weight.

 

[steve-h]

about a day... not gone over 4/5 hours the past 2 years (obviously not counting when im sleeping )

 

[Kennysevenfold]

a few hours.!

 

[Freeman]

7 hours when I'm sleeping...... What's wrong with you people!

 

[touch]

I threw up ... then ate it again

Maybe you should change your word choice slightly

 

[Captain_Slick]

I spent two weeks when I was younger with a stomach bug where I basically just threw up whenever I tried to eat. All I had throughout was water and juice. Properly exhausting.

 

[shauncr91]

Wednesday morning to Saturday afternoon.

I drank loads of water though.
