Unless it's for religious reasons, fasting is stupid, horrible for your body and a very, very bad "tool" for weight loss.

    Agreed. And why be hungry unless you HAVE too? That's just stupid.

    I love food. Fasting deprives me of food.

    Therefore, I do not love fasting.

    Eating is where it's at.

    I did it last year on 11/11/11 for http://fastforhunger.org/ to raise money for the cause. I wouldn't normally do it.

    You're wrong, but you're 18. I'm sure it happens a lot.

    there are different types of fasting
    they have different purposes
    and the duration of the fast varies
    proper fasting can have many benefits
    but i assume what you are talking about is starving or consuming a large deficit in order to loose weight
    yes that is stupid because it is firstly unhealthy physically for your body and secondly will promote developing an unhealthy relationship with food which will lead to ocd tendencies.

    Depends on a number of factors.

    What length of fast? 100% abstaining from all foods? What is the user trying to accomplish by fasting?

    Ironically I drank some casein last night and I never drink casein. I thought of this poster as I was drinking it.

    I mixed it with whole milk and I could have eaten it with a spoon. That stuff is ridiculous.

    when you fast, your body eats itselft. it eats the fat that's stored in your body. it's not stupid, it's smart.

    I've had a tub forever, still haven't finished it from when I thought I needed a casein shake every night, that stuff doesn't taste good or mix well
