A lot of people fast for 24 hours. I do it once a month. Where did you come up with the ridiculous assertion that nobody fasts for 24 hours?

maybe he meant 24 hours hardly qualify as fasting, if you don't eat breakfast, that's just skipping one dish

i am usually doing 36 hours starting after dinner until next day after breakfast and it's way too easy, even 48 hours would not be problem. the issue for me it's i am cooking for family and children sometimes don't finish their stuff so it's difficult to combine it with my fasting, if i would be single i would be doing 48 hours regularly

I don't do it often/regularly, or schedule/track it, but if I get to the end of the day and don't feel particularly hungry, I don't eat. Since I usually only eat in the evenings anyways, I guess skipping one evening would put me in the 42-48 hour range.

If I don't feel weak, irritable, or hungry the next evening, I'll go another day. Without records, I'd guess I skip two consecutive evenings once or twice a year, and skip a single evening a few more times.

When I tried fasting I did 36 hours every other day for two months.

Interesting... I take my initial comment back.I wasn't aware that people actually abstain from eating for long periods of time (+24 hours).

That's what I've been doing for years

I do, once a week I do dry fasting and it's a miracle !
