[QUOTE="Guzzler, post: 1919851, member: 408573"] 800 calories is not classed as a starvation diet. I have heard it called a 'near' starvation diet, this is nowhere near the same thing as starving. There is no such thing as continuous fasting as this equates to starving. You seem to class all fasting with starvation and it is a completely different animal. Ask people of the Islamic faith who fast every year whether or not it equates to starvation. Ask yourself if a doctor would prescribe nil by mouth for 24 hours for a patient before major surgery if it was a threat to life. [/QUOTE]
