Anon is often depressed.
Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

One, you can run out of fat reserves. You can also run low on critical minerals or electrolytes like magnesium or potassium and have a heart attack. Also, while fat may replace a carbohydrate source, you need protein intake as well. It’s obviously happened to people in famines.

Yes but they are talking about weight loss, this isn't famine or an emergency. In normal situations not eating is perfectly fine. I often won't eat for a day if I have too much going on.

They probably meant consistently not getting enough food for prolonged periods of time
