How do you suppose those people avoid "starvation mode" while on Survivor? I know they don't live on much beyond a few bites of rice everyday and meals on reward challenges...how do you suppose they escape the dreaded starvation mode?

    They honestly probably don't. That's why they all look much thinner and angular at the end of it than when they went in at the beginning.

    Because they are actually starving - that is a different thing completely.

    Oh, God. Don't go here again. Please, make it stop. If you eat less than you burn consistently, you will lose weight. Starvation Mode = Reason to Consume! Eat less, work out more...that's it.

    IMO, they do go into starvation mode. However, if you notice that in recent years they have put them in locations where they can fish and often have fruits they can gather. Plus, those chickens that show up sure don't look as if they are native to the area. But to me, it looks like at the end even the strong guys have lost some muscle. Most of them lose some fat, but at the reunion show they have put it back on plus some. I love the show and have watched every season. I think it is by far the hardest game show to win.
