So Ramadan started. I'm in Bosnia right now with my grandma and grandpa and my grandma is fasting cause shes a hardcore Muslim and my grandpa can because of heath reasons. I'm not doing this because I can't bare not drinking water all day.

So I guess this is just a thread for the Muslims to talk about there Ramadan month.

But I can't wait til its over so I can get some money from my aunts/uncles on the holiday thats called " Biram " in Bosnian

Such a troo muslim, not enjoying the Ramadan for its purpose but instead longs for the end of it so you can get some money. Troo.

Oh yeah. It's the same here, but today I saw nobody fasting. Everybody in school today had their water-food-cigarettes-everything.

And the thing that makes a fast too difficult is neither food nor drink-cigarettes-anything else. It's just the rule that you can't use bad language or you also can't BM in Starcraft games, you can't ragequit, and all those things ruin your fast (I'm serious about this. You need to respect them too.).

'Biram' comes from 'Bayram', the Turkish word for celebration. I assume it started with the sufis (Hacı Bayramı) like all good Muslim partying does. :D

I'm in Turkey and the festivities will probably be picking up soon. Only real difference is the fun atmosphere at night and the noticeable increase in road rage. I don't think any of my Muslim friends will be fasting or abstaining from alcohol, though. :D

Fasting sounds as though a medical coma is a prerequisite for success.

there's been evidence that recurring periods of starvation primes your metabolism to stockpiling energy meaning down the generations ramadan is going to make obesity the nr1 health concern for muslim developing nations

Dude I think you know a lot about Turkey. And also I remember that you were in Istanbul when SC2 was launched. How do you know this much about Turkey ?

And yes, in Ramadans there is a lot of road rage. Especially when people are going back to their houses.

Aren't you only required to fast while the sun is up? That's what, ~15 hours without food or drink? Seems doable.
it's my first day

If you eat you maintenance in calories when the sun is down it will not affect your metabolism. Asked a nutritionist, thank you. Thanks for spewing bullshit information btw, much appreciated.

wow so touchy, also it's common knowledge that it's bad to eat right before going to sleep, this is because the body burns fat to maintain heat while asleep, if you recently ate then your body uses that instead meaning the fat that's been stored up naturally for this rythm is left there for the next day

but sure, stuff your face right before going to sleep and we'll see if it has an impact on your weight.

also I find it ridiculous that you react with hostility when I'm clearly just looking out for what is obviously going to become a serious public health issue (it already is in the west)

I'm still here. :D My summer semester just ended and I'm still here for another few weeks. Any suggestions on where to go? Plane tickets will be cheap cause no one wants to take vacation during Ramazan.

All I know is I'll probably head over to Eyüp for a few nights if it's not too ridiculously hot. If it is, I'll sit in Starbucks instead.

It doesn't matter and thats a common fact, go to the bodybuilding.com fourms and try to spread this information, please. You wouldn't survive with your broscience there, you may on tl though.

If you really want though, I can c&p information.

I eat a bowl of cereal or potato chips before I go to sleep around twice a week and I'm stick thin. Then again I can eat anything I want and I don't gain any weight =/.

I don't know much about Ramadan but I know all my middle eastern friends have been staying up late, partying and eating a ton of food, it sounds pretty awesome. I thought Ramadan was supposed to be a time of piety though,is it like how Christmas isn't really Christmas anymore?

the reason they say this on fitness sites is that, for fitness purpouses you eat constantly to INCREASE your metabolism (many small meals = body is used to constant supply = body reacts by burning more), in this case you can eat before sleeping

this is IN CONTRAST WITH
a 15 hour starvation period and then stuffing your face before sleep

science is the darndest thing

edit: also again I want to underscore I didn't post this because I'm against cultural heritage or religious ritual, I posted it because it is relevant information so stop jumping down my throat at every goddamn turn

Fail evolution. Lamarckism much? Unless you can prove this is epigenomic, this is a totally baseless claim.
