    You mean starving yourself? In the long run it's very unhealthy and does more harm than good.

    For what reason?

    Everything depends on why you are doing this.

    If you're trying to lose weight because you really need to, then you're going to have to be hungry some of the time.

    If you're suffering from an eating disorder like anorexia, no, it's not OK.

    If you think, as some people do, that being hungry somehow sharpens your mind and thought processes, that's a myth. It's not actually true.
