This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Called fast/feast. You can just eat whatever, whenever.
Most people feasibly can't eat enough in 4 hours to overeat.
It is simply a method of self control and calorie restriction for people who have trouble otherwise. I did it for a while and it worked very well.
I wish I was most people...
Same. I don't get hungry or full so I developed a terrible relationship with food where I eat when I am bored or as a trained response to video games and such. I will forget to eat or eat way too much. I pushed my limits when I was heavily counting calories in university one time with an open cafeteria and ate something like 8000 calories and one sitting. I almost puked from the pure volume, but I could just keep going.
The one bright side is that doing a water fast is easy in that I don't get hungry. I have gone 17 days before and felt fine. But then I love cooking and I was just constantly thinking about food lol
