Thank God, never too long. Not like many others in this world. I think the longest without food was when I had a miscarriage and they "forgot" to feed me after the operation. It would have been close to 18 hours since I ate when I pleaded for food and a nurse too pity and gave me some of hers.

Ask any poor man personally and this question would value a lot .
-
16 long hours!!! From my hometown to the place i am currently working by train will take that long IF there is NO traffic or other accidents. I simply don't have appetite for food on a train!!! Oh..i am from China...LOL!!!

3 days when I was ill, just before Christmas. Luckily I recovered enough to eat some Christmas dinner though.
-
the longest I've evr gone is 4 whole days and a couple of hours the following morning. as you've probably guessed I'm ana. the only things I had in that time, roughly 100 hours (sounds kinda impressive when you say it like that) was about 50-75 mL of water each day which I used to take my dietary supplements (1 vit. C 1 zinc and 2 hair skin and nails complexes) which I could have done without but it was an attempt not to look too sick and also it's a long walk home from school in the afternoon and I didn't want to faint of dehydration
-
a year and a half...i was on a diet...im 2 fat lol
-
I think this was a lame merge. One includes water and one doesn't. Oh well, at least someone got +5 </srcsm> The longest I've gone without water is 3 days, had a bad virus or something, couldn't keep it down. Longest without food, 1 week, then ate very little a week after that (average a couple pieces of toast a day) Both times when I was really sick
-
I have went a week a few times without eating,or in other words fasting to improve my health.

Probably half a day. I don't like to miss my meals.

About 9 days....I had Pnumonia but they put me in the hospital and started an Iv

Almost 2 weeks without food, I was very sick from an infection and hospitalized shortly after that for treatment. It was AWFUL, I lost sooo much weight from the whole ordeal that I looked horrible. The doctors told me that I had to gain weight afterwards. You better believe that was fun. When are you ever told to gain weight?! ;)
-
Food? about one month. Water? never longer than a few hours.
-
I've gone without food for 21 days for a fast and I don't think I've gone more than a day without water.

I would not even know where to begin to look at who lasted the longest without food. I personally only eat once every two days. But I stay well hydrated by consuming plenty of liquid. When I do eat it is a balanced meal with all the basic food groups. It isn't the fact of being able to afford food but more so that I do not crave food. I simply do not feel hungry as often as others. I don't eat any snacks or junk food and physically I have never felt better.
-

When I was 7 I went on a hunger strike that lasted 5 an a half days... then I passed out an got food forced down me at the hospital... and I still ha to learn to play piano, I’m glad of it now though! The longest without water has to be 2 days, I got stuck climbing when an ice sheet slipped, and I lost all my equipment (but not the cigarettes) and dislocate my right arm, but at least it wasn’t my smoking arm... I got back to the bottom after two days where my friend had bought me a beer! I was fun!
