Once I was in such a situation that I have survived with out food for around 11/2 day. I like food and i like to eat it everyday but at that time, I am stucked in a situation where I have to sleep empty stomach. I feel sorry for those guys who didn't managed to earn that much that they can't get food.

Probably one day in civilized world. In a jungle or a desert, probably three or four, but maybe more. What I heard from James Kim situation analyst. There's this 3-3-3 rule. 1) Can survive w/0 shelter for three hours 2) Can survive w/o water for three days. 3) Can survive w/o food for three weeks. Let me add that I think it's sad that in some parts of world people have to struggle to lose weight due to having too much food, while in some other parts of the world, people are dying left and right like flies due to lack of food.

that depends if you mean forced hunger or voluntary. Humans can survive for weeks without food, but i wouldn't personally choose to. The most i ever go without eating is probably about 12 hours

I can't survive a day without food unless I was being forced not to eat by someone else other than myself. I give in easily. I can survive for one day too I'm sure. But I have no self control to actually make me sustain from eating food.

i am not sure if you just written this discussion just for sake of writing something or really feel for those poor guys who are passing their days with empty stomach. i can't even think off my life without food for one day. 99% people of a good family can not think of one day without food. but i feel very sorry for those guys. whenever i get chance i try to involve myself to help those needy people. i also request you all to keep some place of heart open for those poor guys. today the money we are wasting for a war if we could have spend half of that i guess no one of this world become ever suffer for hunger. please put your hands ogether to help them and stop war. help each other to bring peace.
