How I did it: I did it the week before Thanksgiving as a challenge/protest/celebration.  I wanted to challenge myself just to see if I could do it; I hate Thanksgiving and don't believe in the idea of it (celebrating genocide); but, seeing as the feast does exist, ate tons and tons of food on the 7th day--well, planned to.  My stomach shrunk so much that I couldn't.

Lessons & tips: Drink a lot of water, juice, milk, etc.  Keep yourself busy, and just keep telling yourself, no matter how crappy you may feel, you will not die from this.  The pain or discomfort will only make you stronger. 

Resources: My own willpower.  And I told everyone I was doing it, and I worked in a restaurant as a server, so it was extra cool when I suceeded.  I couldn't let all of those people down.  They had to know how badass I was!
