would you eat a person if you didnt eat in 3 days?
what if it's one of those fat guys who thinks he's only fat because he has a high metabolism? then he starts looking at the other passengers like they are a plucked turkey like in a woody woodpecker cartoon.
The guy would run out of endurance before defeating someone more fit than him. Besides, the fat person has more fat to burn. his body will feast
on it's own fat. Each pound will be the equivalent to a 4000 calorie meal.

Most people can go 2-5 weeks without food. And for that matter, most hunger pains subside after about 2-3 days without any caloric intake.

Most obese people have a comparatively low metabolism for their size. The fat guy has also, likely gone through a number of really restrictive diets and least likely to resort to cannibalism. My bet would be on the socker mom that has two venti coffees from starbucks before noon.

The "unsound" is the implosion that the Navy heard.

Well, leaving the politics out of it, what is really, really stupid is
not adhering to established engineering practices, and not doing proper testing/certifications. The CEO thought that was a waste of time and money. Stupid, indeed.

There are times when a visionary can disrupt the status quo of an incumbent industry. This was NOT one of those times.
Absolutely right on both statements. Those occasions when that kind of thinking is actually good are *VERY* infrequent in the space and
deep-sea exploration industries, especially. There simply is no room
for error due to the completely unforgiving nature of the working environments for both.

I would argue that it has been good for *unmanned* space
exploration. They have been able to decrease the size and weight
of satellites and landers over the years, for example, by
thinking a little outside the box.

Maybe some entrepreneur will design a sub and arrange an expedition to
the remains of the first entrepreneur's expedition?

When we take the ferry to Mackinac Island, they have some times where they t the boat under the Mackinac Bridge.

that's got to be horrible on the body though.

You'd be surprised... if you're seriously having trouble with not eating every few hours, would start by cutting soda and snacks, drink all the water
I haven't made a trip up to Mackinac Island yet. A cousin visited the Grand Hotel and got to see where they filmed Somewhere in Time.

He didn't stick with the program, though. He did it out of sympathy for his wife, who was actually the one trying it out. He was doing it out of support for her. She quit because she had only lost 5 or so pounds. I heard the program was less effective for women, and the bigger you were, the easier it was to lose weight.

I will point out that people wanting to see the Titanic aren't interested in seeing successes anyway. ;)

she was probably cheating.
looks like nutrisystem is real expensive and has lots of processed foods. and they are bringing back jenny craig.

Yeah, I would rather see the bridge (again). :) There are plenty of shipwrecks one can see near the shores off the shores of Michigan, too.

During WWII two ships were converted into carrier decks for pilots trainingt
Great Lakes NAS to practice carrier landings and takeoffs. Pilots whoanded
late in the evening were supposed to stay overnight on the carrier. Turned
ut several students packed their dress uniforms in airtight bags, then swam to the shore. They would party all night in Chicago, then swim back to the carrier before wakeup time.
I have a friend that tried Nutri-system and he lost 20 pounds in the trial per iod. Part of it was switching from 3 larger meals to 6 smaller snacking type meals a day. As mentioned, I think part of it working was keeping away the hunger by spreading out the intake of food.

My concern is maintaining metabolism. Fasting or skipping meals may confuse the body's energy consumption/ energy savings modes. It may be worse if you have low metabolism.
respond. This is where you start seeing "pre-diabetic" levels of glucose (long after the damage is already started).... which is why people should get a baseline glucose test every year, not just an A1C (which only starts showing after the damage is started, often after a decade or more).
