In his youth, my younger brother belonged to some kind of explorer group that had expeditions of this sort. On one such, he was out by himself for two weeks with a piece of parachute silk, his sleeping bag, a jacknife, and the clothing on his back. No food.
He used his shoelaces to make snares and was the only member of the group to gain weight during the two weeks.
I am currently a member of an odd group of people. We sometimes do what we call a "Starvation March." We are allowed to bring no food, little equipment, and we must cover a long distance using no trails. Sometimes we do well. Sometimes we starve. Sometimes we freeze. Sometimes we get very wet.
