[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd love to see the op even try it for 24 hours. Incredibly stupid idea.[/quote]

I have done it for 24 hours and I’m the OP.  24 hours without food or water is easy. Eight hours of that is sleep so really 16 hours without food. That’s not that difficult if you’re ill, stressed, sedentary, overweight, or  generally  well fed and well nourished in the first place but that will not lead to any significant weight loss like an extended  96 hour or more   fast. After 4 days is when the magic really begins.

Fat loss doesn’t really generate till a couple days into a fast: the initial drop is just water weight.

I wanted to know if anyone safely conducted a multiple day fast. For the record, the human body can go 3  without food but only 3  days without water.[/quote]

I have done it for 48 hours (water only) and I did not lose a single pound of weight. [/quote]

Maybe you aren’t overweight. If you’re overweight, the body will start eating/burning its own fat very quickly after not receiving food.  Fat people lose weight very quickly. [/quote]
