      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.

          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
