I meant food and water.

Food you can pass on for about 28-32 days.
Water on the other hand you will need in about 3 days. Remember you body is made of about 80% water.
I don't recommend going with out either of them.
Hope this helps you!

you could live without food for quite a long time, potentially for many weeks.
your body would use its muscles to survive.
heavier people would live longer than a
thin ones, so how long a person can survive
depends a lot on the actual size of the person. Of course, if you go without food for a few weeks, you would be very weak since your body has been using those muscles for energy.
Water is a different story. You will die within 3-4 days without water. NOTE:size doesn't make a difference.

You can last several weeks without food but you can't last long without water which means you need to drink water within 4 to 10 days or risk dying from thirst and dehydration. The human body is at least 80% water and must be kept hydrated. Food can wait.

From what I understand, the average, healthy person can last up to two weeks without food, and no more than seven days without water. Although I don't recommend trying this.

Rule of 3s: Three minutes without air (oxygen), three days without water and three weeks without food.

Well, honey, I know "I" would never make it for long, but I have heard people can go for several days.
