There goes my stomach again... but I can't eat!

I fast for a whole month every year.
Not because I'm a believer..
It's because Islam is forced upon me by my parents.

It does wonders for your figure.

And fasting isn't really that hard for Muslims; they get used to it.
The only thing that get's annoying is a persons mouth drying up, you're allowed to run water through it; just don't swallow.

I don't remember missing out on any physical activities, while I was fasting.
 
I would easily be able to pull off fasting for a day. However, I think it's pretty safe to assume that I would reach my breaking point after a few days. xD Though there was one point in my life where I would randomly go a week or so eating very little. I think that was due to the fact that my hunger is surpressed after going a while without eating, and sometimes the hunger didn't return until I ate a lot. o_O But nowadays I can't afford to do that, what with sports and all it's hard enough just to retrain myself form not over eating.
 
I'm underweight although I love eating almost as much as my computer, so no. So, even if I - which is very unlikely - wanted to fast, I shouldn't because it would probably be unhealthy for my already low weight.
 
I'm technically underweight, but the same BMI index had 'Fat' and 'Very Fat' instead of Overweight and Obese, so i'm not trusting it.

I probably could do it for a while, but i have no reason nor compulsion to. I eat quite a lot, and i snack often so i would reach breaking point after a while, but as an Atheist, i have religious reason to fast. I've done it for medical reasons in the past though.
 
:/ I'd personally think fasting makes you gain weight cause your metabolism and stuff has to adjust and that it's unhealthy. :/ I thought as people, we should be eating 6 small meals a day to keep our body functioning.

I wouldn't wanna fast because I wouldn't want to mess up my body. Eating keeps you healthy (overeating doesn't) but I don't see why someone would let something (even if religion) keep them from being physically healthy.
 
Today, because I was in a state of stress-induced panic, I didn't eat anything during the two lunch breaks I had today. I just forgot! I opened up my lunch-box to find my sandwiches sitting there and was quite shocked(!) If I said to myself: "Don't eat for one day!", I probably would to spite myself.

I did once go on a fast for charity, but I had Home Ec. class and didn't want to waste a perfectly good fry-up...
 
If I really had to then I think I could. I'd just preoccupy myself with other things. It wouldn't be an enjoyable experiance though. :3
 
I dare not. I don't think I can fast for a day. Maybe couple of hours but maybe if I occupie myself with something busy to do then maybe just maybe I might be able to fast a day.
 
I wouldn't be able to fast for a day.

I can't go the daytime without eating something.
