Starvation diet: 800 calories per day (lying motionless).
Not everybody is starting from the same place or have the same lifestyle or the same body (height, etc.). A 500 pound man could eat 0 calories per day and not starve. He may feel hungry and should take some vitamins and electrolytes at the very least, but he'll not starve. The whole point of fat is stored fuel for times of famine. We all know this, but somehow we don't think about this.

Starvation being defined here as going catabolic and your body starts eating itself to stay alive. A dude with 0% body fat will starve much, much, much quicker than dude with 50% body fat.
