Most people find that hard to believe. IMHO I think we eat mostly out of habit. I found out what hunger really is after fasting a lot.

Is it really that hard to believe that a CS student in his mid-twenties is too lazy to shower, put on clothes and leave the house? :)
nope.
I have been there (literally), I agree that eat mostly of habit and hunger can be easily replaced by water/coffee. My blood sugar would drop significantly though after 24h-36h and I would feel dizzy. Were you drinking sweetened drinks?
Your blood sugar really shouldn't drop while fasting, unless you do aerobic exercise, have a genetic mutation that prevents you from producing glycogen, or have some other kind of glycemic disease.
No, water and coffee.
Coffee with milk or cream, or black coffee?
that's very interesting and quite impressive.
