What I learned from starving myself for 45 hours.

- Hunger is a mental thing. You can survive a month without food, so that feeling of a grumbling, empty stomach is only temporary. By the second day, it wasn't even a feeling in my stomach anymore, mostly just the thoughts of food that got to be pretty prevalent.

- I eat a lot when I'm not actually hungry or in need of food. Sometimes I just eat because I'm bored. This is both unhealthy and wasteful.

- It's surprising how much your stomach shrinks in just two days. I got pretty sick from eating a big meal of pasta right after.

- My friends are awesome and generous. Won't get too sappy on you all, but thanks. Thanks for both the monetary donations and the care and concern.
