as a type two diabetic, which I am, there are times when my blood sugar is high enough that I have to go for more than four hours without food - it doesn't happen often, but it does happen.
Separately from that, yesterday I had a number of errands to run requiring me to drive a good distance - I left the house at 12:30 pm got back at 4:30 pm - I had my breakfast at 10:00 am which consisted of two vegetarian sausage patties on one piece of Ezekial bread with Duke's mayo and about 8 ozs of water. No food or water from 10:30 am till about quarter till five and that was one trader joe's lemon bar - had a home emergency that required my attention from 5 pm till I had a pot pie for supper at 9 pm - even before I started having blood sugar problems, I was used to going more than four hours without food or water - that's kind of how many people I know have done, when you are working at certain jobs that's just how you do. I once had a job driving for a courier service, leaving the base at 8:00 am, and if I was lucky having lunch in the vehicle around 1 or 2 pm - having had breakfast at 7 am before leaving the house - its just life. Its not my business how you spend your money, but if you wanna pay me that thousand I will be glad to entertain you with more of my stories of my misspent youth and you can eat and drink all you like as you read 'em. -------------------------------------------- On Sun, 11/3/13, doctordumb...@rocketmail.com <doctordumb...@rocketmail.com> wrote: Subject: RE: Re: [FairfieldLife] RE: Michelle Pfeiffer escaped from a cult To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Date: Sunday, November 3, 2013, 12:29 PM No Way! If this is true, I'm getting my $1,000 back. I'm starting to think my Breatharian teacher is ripping me off! However, you have been known to exaggerate, MJ, so, if anyone else on here, can substantiate the claim of actually going for a total of four hours, without food, water, beer, twinkies, or even raw Swiss chard, I'd like to hear about it. Thanks. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <fairfieldlife@yahoogroups.com> wrote: what in the world are you all talking about? Who doesn't go for four or five hours without food or water??

What did you experience after four hours without food or water? Were you also meditating during the fast? ---In fairfieldlife@yahoogroups.com, <no_re...@yahoogroups.com> wrote: I did it, once, for *four* solid hours. Two years ago, around Columbus Day. Nothing - not even a peanut, or half cup of tap water - zip. You probably don't believe me, but its true. I think my years of TM helped, a lot. I must have been in a trance or something, to withstand it. I seriously thought I was going to pass out. Almost like Richard Harris, in that scene, from, "A Man Called Horse". Even so, I am working with a teacher, now, who says I can achieve *five hours*, of non-food, non-water - no problem. He's expensive, but worth it. I think he's Indian. Total cost is ~$1,000 (not including the non-food and non-water, of course). This is a tough crowd, here on FFL, so I'll say up front: This guy is no cult leader. After all, I've been around the block. Don't knock it, 'til you've tried it. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <fairfieldlife@yahoogroups.com> wrote: Michelle Pfeiffer, the actress, has disclosed that she was once part of a “cult” which believed humans can exist without food or water.http://tinyurl.com/odb3y4c
