    Longest has been 18 hours I think. That was 2 years ago when I didn't eat breakfast, I didn't eat lunch, but finally ate at teatime.

    It depends what you mean by 'food'.

    If you mean conventional food, then 150 days on a vlcd.

    If you mean any nutrition at all, then probably 24 hours max.

    I wouldn't advise anyone to do the same. I felt dizzy and had vision problems towards the end of it. I started eating again when i was threatened with forced injections. Once i got my appetite back, it came back with a vengeance.

    For about a month, one meal every 24 hours, back at uni where I couldn't afford breakfast & lunch (I had gone over my overdraft limit and couldn't get any more money out).

    (still drank tap water though)
