Back in 2001 i fasted simply out of desperation, overheard someone talking about it at the tailors and just stopped eating, those 3-4 days starting off were so hard, but it did get easy and got to the point where I had no desire to eat. ALB is right, there are interesting videos on utube about a woman who fasted 120 days in total with a weeks gap every 40 days. She documents it day by day, thou she was 200lbs i think, so not morbidly obese. Dissapointed I didnt keep all of it off, but i guess unemployment for long periods post graduation does this to someone once addicted to junk
