So, to me, a big part of survival preparedness is knowing your body and its limits so that when pressed, you don't freak out. I'm 24 hours into a 10 day fast, drinking only distilled water. There is a lot of evidence supporting the health benefits of such a fast, and some condemning, but I was more interested to see how much energy and mental clarity I would have after ten days of no food. That way, if ever in a situation where food is terribly hard to come by, I can hopefully keep a cooler head, knock out shelter and water needs, and know from experience how my body will react without food for an extended period of time. So, many of you may care less, but consider this a log of sorts. I am 27 years old, 225lbs, ~13%bf. No food, alcohol, or tobacco.
Day 1
Not so bad, I think we've all been at least a day without food. Will update tomorrow.
