I've definitely been misinterpreted in regards to the, "enlightenment," bit, however.

I'm not shirking, I'm procrastinating. I can't even begin with new anecdotes until I fast again, let alone skeptically/scientifically prove them.
I hope you're on vacation when you attempt this experiment in extreme malnutrition, as by your own account I believe you said you were almost fired during one of your previous fasts.
In contrast to these dangerous attempts at reaching some higher plane of consciousness by starving your brain of fuel,
my own recipe for reaching enlightenment would be as follows:
1: eat a healthy diet, with lots of fresh fruits and vegetables and little red meat.
2: stay physically fit.
3: get plenty of sleep, 8 hours a night is the average requirement.
4: engage every day in some stimulating intellectual exercise, like learning a new language, or learning to play a musical instrument.
5: maintain positive interpersonal relationships with a variety of friends and family.
Oh I almost forgot, 6: have a nice glass of red wine with dinner every night...
