Will this affect me in a wrong way?

I'm going to be doing the 30 hour famine on April 1st and that means no eatiny for 30 hours (duh). Anyways, will that effect my metabolism in any way? Because if it will harm my body, I wont' do it, but I want your approvals or disapprovals first!
 
Hey, I'm really not in a position to say how this 30 hour commitment may affect your metabolism. I do, however, believe that it won't have a horrible effect on your body. You should do the famine because it's for your religion right? Don't you think it's more important to glorify your lord than to worry about having a potential negative impact on your body for ONLY a couple days if anything?
 
...and if it's not for your religion it's probably to raise money for charity right? Isn't that more important. I don't even know if it'll screw with your metabolism... probably will but it's nothing drastic enough to avoid the experience. Good luck!
 
It will slow down your metabolism a little bit (during and after the famine), to what extent I don't know. Depending on your body build, and fat %, the effects will vary. Though my view of going on a fast is kind of mixed - what Ghandi did was great, and I support his attempt. But people who fast to 'prove' themselfs or their religious belief is just wrong. But that's my view - if you google around you will find some pre-fasting facts, such as what you should eat, types of food, etc...

Just my 2 cents
 
Thanks, this famine thingie is for a charity. The money i raise is for the children affected by the tsunami and stuff. I hope it doesn't damage me too much but I'm sure it won't kill me
 
It won't kill you

I think it's great that you're doing this. think of all the people in the world who don't have the choice of making that decision.(not eating). Doiing a famine is about thinking of those people. You will be fine!! :p :)
 
^^ Thanks! I hope so. I actually did this last year and it wasn't so hard, but I'm mainly worried if it will affect my body, because last year i didn't care squat about health and weight :p Now I do.
 
The 30 hour fast won't hurt too bad. I don't condone it unless its done for the right reason (your doing it for the right reason). There was a heated discussion on this topic earlier. While you fast though, make sure you keep your water intake up.
