Yes! It will confuse your body. First your body will slow down your metabolism which wont allow you to lose any weight really. Your scale might tell you different though because of the water weight you will lose. Once you start eating normally again your body's metabolism will be too slow and will make you gain weight gradually.

Uh...yes! Not eating slows down your metabolism. And after the fast (of people I know), they usually over eat way too much because they want the food - which screws you up even more.

I get to point where I don't eat for days. I am 5'4 at 150 lbs. I may eat a candy bar or a bag of chips and then the next week I may be starved out and eat everything. my weight stays the same. I don't have a eating disorder just in case you are wondering. But I can eat almost anything and my metabolism only changes as I get older and by the way I am 36.

Your body does not go into starvation mode after only one day. Fasting will screw up your metabolism. Proper fasting however can lead to a purification of your physical body and your spiritual body alike, hence it can be safely applied and used for spiritual benefits and to improve your physical health as well if done correctly.

All fasting will do is slow your body's metabolism down to conserve energy.

It might. Fasting for that long is not healthy. Our bodies need food for fuel just like a car needs gas to run properly.

Not at all. When you fast you can just give up one meal a day instead of taking the entire day... works for me.

Yeah Tettypu, no eating disorder, right. Bag of chips or a candy bar, man you must be really healthy.
EAT MORE FRUITS AND VEGETABLES
