It sounds pretty impossible to me. I don't think I've had a 500 day streak of anything that isn't a biological function in my life. In the last 2 years I've not even maintained a streak of eating food every day.

How do you not eat food for a full day if you are not purposefully avoiding it?

I want to go eat, but then something else comes up and I forget. After a while of feeling hungry the hunger goes away or is difficult to notice.
