How long without eating a single bite?

[Singlebyte]

Just watched another episode of Naked & Afraid.  These people went for something like two weeks without any food!  You also see the poor people in other parts of the world (like Africa) go for long periods of starvation and are thin as humanly possible.  How long have YOU personally gone without eating anything.  I have gone for 4 days.  Although I wasn't technically "starving", you can definitely feel your self getting weak and run down.

"These people" ate insects and grubs - those count as calories.  If you hadn't eaten in a couple weeks, I'd ask if you have enough energy to even pull yourself to a sitting position..

I have tried 3 days without eat and drink, i'm ok. But my teacher said, normal body could depend without eat and drink for 14 days and 14 hours.

3 minutes without air.
3 days without water.
3 weeks without food.

But losing weight, you can't starve yourself. Your body will go into shock and save energy, hence you won't lose weight if you don't eat.

Thats not completely true, you would begin "eating" yourself, decomposing less important (than brain and his support organs) organs to gain energy for brain, untill you would eat them too and let brain to be last fully functional organ. At that tme you would also be most likely unconscious and on the edge of living. But this will happen when you don't eat in long period of time, close to that 3 weeks.

To the topic: I have really bad eating habits, sometimes I ate everything i can reach for few hours and then there are times i go without eating anything for more than 24 hrs. Luckilly i drink about 3 litres of water a day, at least something i am doing about right

When I was a teenager we fasted for 7 days inside a cave. We only drink water coming from the spring of the cave. I feel hungry from the first 2 days after that I didn't feel hungry at all. I know someone that fasted for 28 days without any food just water. It was a nice experience because you fell yourself you are very light.
