48 hour fast

A couple of days ago I was watching the David Blaine - Drowed Alive special.  It wasn’t all the great, but one thing did stick with me.  They were talking about how David Blaine spent 44 days in a glass box above some bridge somewhere.  During these 44 days, he didn’t eat anything.

This really got me thinking about how we don’t need food as much as we might think that we do.  If you look around today it’s actually astonishing how many people are over weight.  In other places around the world people don’t eat nearly as much as us fat Americans, and it doesn’t seem to bother them.  I’m not saying that I’m some hippy fighting world hunger or anything.  It’s actually quite the opposite.  I want to fight world over eating.

With that said, beginning Monday May 15th at 7:00 PM I will not eat until Wednesday May 17 at 7:00 PM.  I really don’t expect this to be that hard, and that is really the point.  It’s not that hard to not eat.  I will be posting comments here to show my progress.  Stay tuned.
