66 hours. i struggle a lot with yo-yo-ing between binging and restricting, most of my fasts this length ending in binges (or the fasts being triggered by binges too)

2 days when I tried to VSED

It's probably because I was already eating very low carb (under 20g a day) and IF beforehand, but I did 72 hours it was actually very easy for me doing water fasting, felt completely normal by the 72 hour mark like I could go forever. I wonder how it'd be without water though, I ve read that dry fasting it's even easier, so I wonder if I'm the type of person who can ctb via VSED method. If I found a secluded place and just meditate until death lol.

A couple of days without eating, like 8 days with some corn thins. That was at my worst a few years ago.

A week

5 days during millitary training. I hate it that every college student in my country has to go through this (after the massacre in 1989).
It trains you to be obedient, not rising up or do something to 'disturb the society'. It sucks.
The food they provided in the millitary camp was shit, literally pig food I would say.

I hadn't read about Ghandi at that time but I was literally practising Ghandi's non-violence and non-cooperation by fasting.
Buddhism and Indian culture have a root in me I guess.

During the days I was doing heavy millitary exercises (step practice, stand still for hours, 3km run, all in 35+C) with no food intake, only water.
I finally fell due to low blood sugar.
After recovery, I was withdrawn from the training.
I made it, Ghandism won.

Anyway... what's the longest y'all have gone without eating?

Hello Csmith8827, I have gone 10 days without eating it.

During the days I was doing heavy millitary exercises (step practice, stand still for hours, 3km run, all in 35+C) with no food intake, only water.

Respect for you peace_van. I have gone 10 days without eating, only water. But I was just barely walking at that time.

But your experience was insane. I respect your experiment.

6 days. but it was helped by amphetamine. Didn't eat or sleep for 6 days. then I would sleep 16 hours and eat a meal. Then not sleep and eat for 5-6 days again.
