How long can you fast?

April 14, 2026 4:32am CST
Sometimes, I skip breakfast , and end up eating in the lunch hours. I think I feel so great doing that but I dont think I can fast longer than 3pm after waking up. Do you fast sometimes or everyday? Share your experience.

I've never really considered it fasting, I'm just not hungry. Most days I don't eat breakfast and rarely do I eat lunch. I may snack for lunch but mostly it's just a few snacks during the day and dinner. I got in that habit when I worked retail and never really changed. Plus with everything we do and have planned during the day I have to be reminded to eat.

well, even if you dont see it as fasting, your body surely see it that way.

@ogbenishyna44 probably but it's a hard habit to break and I stopped trying a few years ago

I have to take one of my medications with food, so I don’t think I have ever fast for long. That doesn’t mean I have to eat a lot with the medication; half an orange is enough to keep from getting an ulcer. So the longest I’ve ever gone was probably 12 hours.

I usually don't eat breakfast as I wake up late at around 10am. I have brunch instead.

I have tried intermittent fasting before. eating my "dinner" at 3 pm and my "breakfast" at 9 am. that's 18 hours of no food just water or green tea without honey or sugar.

My record was 30 hours. I had my dinner at 6pm the day before and the next day, I busy travelling to various locations and completing various tasks. By the time I settle down for a meal, it was already 12 midnight. I was not feeling hungry till about 11pm.
