Earlier today I came to the realization that I have forgotten to eat for the past 3 days. So why not make it a week? Who wants to join me?

Um... you do realize that forgetting to eat for three days is really bad thing, right? And one person on here did the "not eating for a week" thing, was damn torture on them.
Eat something already.
As for me, well the above guy got me craving pizza now, so I'm gonna get me some of that.

How the hell can you forget to eat for 3 days? What the hell have you been doing?
Personally, I can't go much longer than 6 hours without food. I could probably survive for a few weeks without food, like most humans. Why would I want to though? My stomach would ache and I would achieve nothing really.
The only reason I would fast at all is for charity maybe... But there are other ways of raising money!

Recently was so sick that i only ate tea and cough drops. That was bad enough. Only reason to not eat is to cut weight or for a serious religious reason.
In the words of Simmons of Red vs. Blue fame:
"Wouldn't it be better if we didn't do that, as opposed to doing it?"
Seriously, man, how the hell do you forget to eat? That's just crazy.

Believe it or not, this isn't the first time this has happened. But my personal best is four days, so a week seems like a good target.Bambi On Toast said:
That's extremely impressive.Firstmark_Bannor said:
Although I must ask again, how is it you forgot to eat for 3 days? It just sounds like a really, really strange thing to me. I don't know anybody else in my life who has done that. Are you overweight or trying to lose weight maybe?
Nope, I'm not over weight. I've worked in restaurants my entire life, so much so that 99% of food has lost all appeal to me, as such i just don't think to eat anymore. Combined with the fact that i don't watch any TV at all or listen to the radio, I never see food adverts to remind me I need food.Bambi On Toast said:
Three days is a bit much, but I get so busy that I forget to or don't have time to eat all the time. I didn't eat anything until 8:00 this evening, although to be fair, I slept in til 4 in the afternoon. I had a major sleep debt after a long week.Bambi On Toast said:
Pretty much that on a grander scale. I often forget to eat until usually about 11 pm but i also get up at 11am.Owyn_Merrilin said:
I used to forget to eat fairly frequently when I was younger... at least a proper meal. I'd live off coke and nibbles.Bambi On Toast said:
That said... I was also a depressive shut in who barely left the front of my computer screen, or bed that was two steps away.
Um... hunger is not an invention of modern society. Hungers hunger. Hunger reminds and compels us to eat.Firstmark_Bannor said:
I don't care how 'turned off' to food you may be. You should be getting hungry and eating. If you aren't, you may want to get checked out. Sounds like you may have some busted glands or something.
I think if you can go three days without feeling hungry, you should see a doctor. It's possible you have a problem with your glands or hormones. Also, you should watch your vitamins and minerals. Getting too low on certain nutrients can cause drastic and permanent damage (for example, getting critically low on potassium can cause acute cardiovascular failure).
I'd just like to remind everyone that you can survive 2 weeks with out food.
But please remember the term "survive" literally just means your heart is still beating. Not walking around and talking to people, a few days in and you will feel like you are dying.

True, While hunger isn't new, overexposer to anything can kill the urge. Case in point, I had a relationship in which i had ridiculous amounts of sex, so much so that now i don't even get horny, despite the fact we aren't together any more. Sex is sex and Food is food, I'll get around to them when i have time, or i remember to do it.AccursedTheory said:
i am eating a delicious and juicy hambuger right now. Ill even share it with you if you want. Over the internet, yes i am a wizard.
You DO know that you wreak absolute havoc on your body when you non-voluntarily/accidentally fast, right? Even deciding in advance that you're going to fast still does bad things to you.
You'd be better off eating.
